1.5. INTRODUCE THE PCI - BUS
Connecting devices to a CPU local bus can dramatically increase the speed
of I/O-bound peripherals with only a slight increase in cost over traditional
systems.
This price / Performance point has created a vast market potential for local
bus products.
The main barrier to this market has been the lack of an accepted standard for
local bus peripherals.
Many mainboard and chipset manufactures developed their own local bus
implementations, but they are incompatible with each other.
The VL (Video Electronics Standards Association) local bus and PCI
(Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus specification was created to end
this confusion.
The PCI - bus standard, under development since Jun. 1992, which is
designed to bring workstation-level performance to standard PC platform.
The PCI - bus removes many of the bottlenecks that have hampered PC for
several years.
On the PCI - bus, peripherals operate at the native speed of the computer
system, thus enabling data transfer between peripherals and the system at
maximum speed.
This performance is critical for bandwidth-constrained devices such as video,
multimedia, mass storage, and networking adapters.
PCI - bus standard provides end-users with a low-cost, extendible and
portable local bus design, which will allow system and peripherals from
different manufactures to work together.

3. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
3.1. UNPACKING
The mainboard package should contain the following:
• The 586ATX4 mainboard.
• USER’ S MANUAL for mainboard.
• Cable set for IDE & Floppy.
• Diskette for BUS MASTER ATAPI device driver.
The mainboard contains sensitive electric components which can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so the mainboard should be left in its original
packing until it is installed.
Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat.
The operator should be wearing an anti static wristband, grounded at the
same point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the mainboard carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling
may cause damage to your board. Be sure there are no shipping and
handling damages on the board before proceeding.
After opening the mainboard carton, extract the system board and place it
only on a grounded anti-static surface component side up. Again inspect the
board for damage.
Press down on all of the socket IC’ s to make sure that they are properly
seated. Do this only on with the board placed on a firm flat surface.
M
DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED.
You are now ready to install your mainboard. The mounting hole pattern on
the mainboard matches the IBM-AT system board.
It is assumed that the chassis is designed for a standard IBM XT/AT
mainboard mounting. Place the chassis on the anti-static mat and remove
the cover.
Take the plastic clips, Nylon stand-off and screws for mounting the system
board, and keep them separate.

3.4. DRAM INSTALLATION
The mainboard can be installed with 4 / 8 / 16 / 32 / 64MB 168 pins DIMM
module DRAM, and the DRAM speed must be 50 or 60 ns for EDO and
67~100MHZ for SDRAM. The DRAM memory system on mainboard consists
of bank 0, 1, 2 & bank 3. Each bank consists of 1 piece of 168pins DIMM
module DRAM. Because the 168 pins DIMM module is 64 bits width, using 1
piece which can match a 64 bits system. The total memory size is 8 - 256
MB.
For the DRAM installation position, note that the Pin 1 of DIMM module must
match with the Pin 1 of DIMM socket. Insert the DRAM DIMM module into
the DIMM socket at vertical direction until the left and right metal holders can
keep the SIMM module standing up firmly.
If there is a wrong direction of Pin 1, the DRAM DIMM module couldn't be
inserted into socket completely. After completely insert SIMM module into
socket, then press the SIMM module in vertical
M
Note: 128 MB SDRAM can only be installed on DIMM 0
3.5. SRAM INSTALLATION
Sync. SRAM (Pipeline Burst SRAM)
If Sync SRAM Module is installed, it consists of 1 piece of 512K Pipeline
Burst SRAM.
There is no jumper for cache size setting.
3.6. CPU INSTALLATION AND JUMPERS SETUP
The system speed depends on the frequency of CLOCK GENERATOR. The
user can change SW selection to set up the system speed to 60 MHz or 66
MHz for 3.3V/2.5V Pentium Processor (90-233 MHz) / AMDK5(PR133 /
PR166) / AMD-K6(166/180/200(2.9V)/233(3.2V)), Cyrix / IBM 6x86 (PR150+
/ PR166+ / PR200+), Cyrix / IBM 6x86L (PR150+/PR166+/PR200+ (2.8V)),
Cyrix / IBM 6x86MX (PR166GP(60x2.5 66x2 2.9V) / PR200GP(66x2.5 75x2
2.9V) / PR233GP(66x3 75x2.5 2.9V)).
Page 67
Hardware Installation
3-7
The mainboard can use Pentium Processor, P54CT, MMX or P54CTB,
AMDK5, AMD-K6, Cyrix / IBM 6x86, CPU, and the CPU speed must match
with the frequency of CLOCK GEN. It will cause system hanging up if the
CLOCK GEN.'S frequency is faster than CPU's.
M
The CPU is a sensitive electric component and it can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so users must keep it away from
metal surface when the CPU is installed onto mainboard.
M
When the user installs the CPU on socket, please notice that the
PIN 1 of CPU is in the same corner as the PIN 1 of socket!
M
Before the CPU is installed, the mainboard must be placed on a flat
plane in order to avoid being broken by the pressure of CPU
installation.
3.7. CMOS RTC & ISA CFG CMOS SRAM
The mainboard contains Built-in Real Time Clock (RTC) With 256B CMOS
SRAM in PIIX4. They have a power supply from external battery to keep
the DATA inviolate & effective. The CMOS SRAM is used for keeping the
information of system configuration, so the system can automatically boot
OS every time. Since the lifetime of internal battery is 5 years, the user
can change a new Battery to replace old one when it has consumed.
M
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
M
Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the

Memory
The category is display-only which is determined by POST (Power On
Self Test) of the BIOS.
Base Memory
The POST of the BIOS will determine the amount of base (or
conventional) memory installed in the system.
The value of the base memory is typically 512 K for systems
with 512K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for
systems with 640K or more memory installed on the
motherboard.
Extended Memory
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present
during the POST.
This is the amount of memory located above 1 MB in the CPU's
memory address map.
Expanded Memory
Expanded Memory in memory defined by the Lotus / Intel /
Microsoft (LIM) standard as EMS.
Many standard DOS applications can not utilize memory above
640, the Expanded Memory Specification (EMS) swaps
memory which not utilized by DOS with a section, or frame, so
these applications can access all of the system memory.
Memory can be swapped by EMS is usually 64 within 1 MB
or memory above 1 MB, depends on the chipset design.
Expanded memory device driver is required to use memory as
Expanded Memory.
Other Memory
This refers to the memory located in the 640 to 1024 address
space. This is memory that can be used for different
applications.
DOS uses this area to load device drivers to keep as much
base memory free for application programs. Most use for this
area is Shadow RAM.
