Note:

1. If you use 66, 100, 133 MHz CPU, we recommend you to set up your system speed to “Auto” value.

2. We don’t recommend you to set up your system speed to 112, 124, 142,152 MHz because these frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU, Chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under 112, 124, 142,152 MHz properly will depend on your hardware configurations: CPU, SDRAM, Cards, etc.

Memory Installation

The motherboard has 3 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM Slot .The DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the two notch. Memory size can vary between sockets.

Install memory in any combination table:

DIMM 168-pin SDRAM DIMM Modules DIMM1 Supports 16 / 32 / 64 / 128 / 256 / 512MB X 1 pcs DIMM2 Supports 16 / 32 / 64 / 128 / 256 / 512MB X 1 pcs DIMM3 Supports 16 / 32 / 64 / 128 / 256 / 512MB X 1 pcs

BIOS Setup

BIOS Setup is an overview of the BIOS Setup Program. The program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-backed CMOS RAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off.

ENTERING SETUP

Power ON the computer and press <Del> immediately will allow you to enter Setup. If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" bottom on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously press <Ctrl> − <Alt>− <Del> keys.

The category identifies the types of hard disk from drive C to F that has been installed in the computer. There are two types: auto type, and user definable type. User type is user-definable; Auto type which will automatically detect HDD type.

Note that the specifications of your drive must match with the drive table. The hard disk will not work properly if you enter improper information for this category.

If you select User Type, related information will be asked to enter to the following items. Enter the information directly from the keyboard and press <Enter>. Such information should be provided in the documentation form your hard disk vendor or the system manufacturer.

CYLS. Number of cylinders HEADS number of heads PRECOMP write precomp LANDZONE Landing zone SECTORS number of sectors

If a hard disk has not been installed select NONE and press <Enter>.

•••• Drive A type / Drive B type

The category identifies the types of floppy disk drive A or drive B that has been installed in the computer.

None No floppy drive installed 360K, 5.25 in. 5.25 inch PC-type standard drive; 360K byte capacity.

1.2M, 5.25 in. 5.25 inch AT-type high-density drive; 1.2M byte capacity (3.5 inch when 3 Mode is Enabled).

720K, 3.5 in. 3.5 inch double-sided drive; 720K byte capacity

2.88M, 3.5 in. 3.5 inch double-sided drive; 2.88M byte capacity.

•••• Boot Sector Virus Protection

If it is set to enable, the category will flash on the screen when there is any attempt to write to the boot sector or partition table of the hard disk drive. The system will halt and the following error message will appear in the mean time. You can run anti-virus program to locate the problem.

Enabled Activate automatically when the system boots up causing a

warning message to appear when anything attempts to access the boot sector or hard disk partition table

Disabled No warning message to appear when anything attempts to

access the boot sector or hard disk partition table. (Default

Value)

•••• 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 512 K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for systems with 640 K 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.

Other Memory

This refers to the memory located in the 640 K to 1024 K 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
