IV. Suspend to RAM Installation
A.1 Introduce STR function:
Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is a Windows 98 ACPI sleep mode function. When
recovering from STR (S3) sleep mode, the system is able, in just a few
seconds, to retrieve the last “state” of the system before it went to sleep and
recover to that state. The “state” is stored in memory (RAM) before the
system goes to sleep. During STR sleep mode, your system uses only
enough energy to maintain critical information and system functions,
primarily the system state and the ability to recognize various “wake up”
triggers or signals, respectively.
A.2 STR function Installation
Please use the following steps to complete the STR function installation.
Step-By-Step Setup
Step 1:
To utilize the STR function, the system must be in Windows 98 ACPI mode.
Putting Windows 98 into ACPI mode is fairly easy.
There are two ways to accomplish this:
1. Setup with Windows 98 CD:
A. Insert the Windows 98 CD into your CD-ROM drive, select Start, and
then Run.
B. Type (without quotes)
“D:\setup /p j”
in the window provided. Hit the
enter key or click OK.
(In Windows 98 second edition version, all the bios version dated
12/01/99 or later are ACPI compatible. Just type" D:\Setup", the
operating system will be installed as ACPI mode).
C. After setup completes, remove the CD, and reboot your system
(This manual assumes that your CD-ROM device drive letter is D:).
Page 33
BX2000+
29
2. Update from Windows98 APM mode:
If your Windows 98 system is in APM mode, use the following steps
to update your system to ACPI mode.
1. When Windows 98 finishes loading, open the “Control Panel” in
Windows 98 “My Computer” area.
2. Double click the “System” item.
Page 34
Suspend To RAM Installation
30
3. Select the “Device Manager” tab and then the “System Devices” item.
Double click the “Plug and Play BIOS” item or select “Properties”
4. Select the “Driver” item and “Update Driver”
Page 35
BX2000+
31
5. The “Update Device Driver Wizard” will appear.
Press the “Next” button
6. In the “Update Device Driver Wizard” window, select the “Display a list of
all the drivers in a specific location, so you can select the driver you want.”
Then press the “Next” button “
Page 36
Suspend To RAM Installation
32
7. Select the “Show all hardware” item → then select the “Advance
Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) BIOS” and press the “Next”
button.
8. “Update Driver Warning” will show up and ask “Are you sure you want to
use this driver?” Select the “Yes” button.
Page 37
BX2000+
33
9. “Update Device Driver Wizard” will show up again. Select the “Next”
button and start copying files to the system.
10. When complete, press the “Finish” button.
11. Restart your computer. Your system will start up using the ACPI mode.
Page 38

Step 2:
To use STR Function, you will need to set motherboard jumpers JP13 &
JP17 closed per the figure below (i.e., put a jumper over both pins at
each location).

V. Introduce Dual BIOS
A. What is Dual BIOS Technology?
Dual BIOS means that there are two system BIOS (ROM) on the
motherboard, one is the Main BIOS and the other is Backup BIOS. Under
the normal circumstances, the system works on the Main BIOS. If the
Main BIOS is corrupted or damaged, the Backup BIOS can take over while
the system is powered on. This means that your PC will still be able to run
stably as if nothing has happened in your BIOS.

Technology FAQ
GIGABYTE Technology is pleased to introduce DualBIOS technology, a hot
spare for your system BIOS. This newest “Value- added” feature, in a long
series of innovations from GIGABYTE, is available on GA-BX2000+
motherboard. Future GIGABYTE motherboards will also incorporate this
innovation.
What’s DualBIOSTM?
On GIGABYTE motherboards with DualBIOS there are physically two BIOS
chips. For simplicity we’l l call one your “Main BIOS” and the other we’l l call
your “Backup” BIOS (your “hot spare”). If your Main BIOS fails, the Backup
BIOS almost automatically takes over on your next system boot. Almost
automatically and with virtually zero down time! Whether the problem is a
failure in flashing your BIOS or a virus or a catastrophic failure of the Main BIOS
chip, the result is the same - the Backup BIOS backs you up, almost
automatically.
Page 52
Introduce Dual BIOS
46
I. Q: What is DualBIOSTM technology?
Answer:
DualBIOS technology is a patented technology from Giga-Byte Technology.
The concept of this technology is based on the redundancy and fault tolerance
theory. DualBIOSTM technology simply means there are two system BIOSes
(ROM) integrated onto the motherboard. One is a main BIOS, and the other is
a backup BIOS. The mainboard will operate normally with the main BIOS,
however, if the main BIOS is corrupt or damaged for various reasons, the
backup BIOS will be automatically used when the system powered-On. Your
PC will operate as before the main BIOS was damaged, and is completely
transparent to the user.
II. Q: Why does anyone need a motherboard with DualBIOSTM
technology?
Answer:
In today’s systems there are more and more BIOS failures. The most common
reasons are virus attacks, BIOS upgrade failures, and/or deterioration of the
BIOS (ROM) chip itself.
1. New computer viruses are being found that attack and destroy the system
BIOS. They may corrupt your BIOS code, causing your PC to be unstable
or even not boot normally.
2. BIOS data will be corrupted if a power loss/surge occurs, or if a user resets
the system, or if the power button is pressed during the process of
performing a system BIOS upgrade.
3. If a user mistakenly updates their mainboard with the incorrect BIOS file,
then the system may not be able to boot correctly. This may cause the PC
system hang in operation or during boot.
4. A flash ROM's life cycle is limited according to electronic characteristics.
The modern PC utilizes the Plug and Play BIOS, and is updated regularly.
If a user changes peripherals often, there is a slight chance of damage to
the flash ROM.
With Giga-Byte Technology’s patented DualBIOSTM technology you can
reduce the possibility of hangs during system boot up, and/or loss BIOS data
due to above reasons. This new technology will eliminate valuable system
down time and costly repair bills cause by BIOS failures.
Page 53
BX2000+
47
III. Q: How does DualBIOSTM technology work?
Answer:
1. DualBIOSTM technology provides a wide range of protection during the boot
up procedure. It protects your BIOS during system POST, ESCD update,
and even all the way to PNP detection/assignment.
2. DualBIOSTM provides automatic recovery for the BIOS. When the first BIOS
used during boot up does not complete or if a BIOS checksum error occurs,
boot-up is still possible. In the DualBIOSTM utility, the "Auto Recovery"
option will guarantee that if either the main BIOS or backup BIOS is
corrupted, the DualBIOSTM technology will use the good BIOS and correct
the wrong BIOS automatically.
3. DualBIOSTM provides manual recovery for the BIOS. DualBIOSTM
technology contains a built-in flash utility, which can flash your system
BIOS from backup to main and/or visa versa. There is no need for an
OS-dependent flash utility program.
4. DualBIOSTM contains a one-way flash utility. The built-in one-way flash
utility will ensure that the corrupt BIOS is not mistaken as the good BIOS
during recovery and that the correct BIOS (main vs. backup) will be flashed.
This will prevent the good BIOS from being flashed.
IV. Q: Who Needs DualBIOSTM technology?
Answer:
1. Every user should have DualBIOSTM technology due to the advancement of
computer viruses.
Everyday, there are new BIOS-type viruses discovered that will destroy your
system BIOS. Most commercial products on the market do not have
solutions to guard against this type of virus intrusion. The DualBIOSTM
technology will provide a state-of-the-art solution to protect your PC:
Case I.) Vicious computer viruses may wipe out your entire system BIOS.
With a conventional single system BIOS PC, the PC will not be functional
until it is sent for repairs.
Case II.) If the "Auto Recovery" option is enabled in the DualBIOSTM utility,
and if a virus corrupts your system BIOS, the backup BIOS will
automatically reboot the system and correct the main BIOS.
Case III.) A user may override booting from the main system BIOS. The
DualBIOSTM utility may be entered to manually change the boot sequence to
Page 54
Introduce Dual BIOS
48
boot from the backup BIOS.
Page 55
BX2000+
49
2. During or after a BIOS upgrade, if DualBIOSTM detects that the main BIOS is
corrupt, the backup BIOS will take over the boot-up process automatically.
Moreover, it will verify the main and backup BIOS checksums when
booting-up. DualBIOSTM technology examines the checksum of the main
and backup BIOS while the system is powered on to guarantee your BIOS
operates properly.
3. Power Users will have the advantage of having two BIOS versions on their
mainboard. The benefit is being able to select either version BIOS to suit the
performance system needs.
4. Flexibility for high-end desktop PCs and workstation/servers. In the
DualBIOSTM utility, the option can be set, "Halt On When BIOS Defects," to
be enabled to halt your system with a warning message that the main BIOS
has been corrupted. Most workstation/servers require constant operation to
guarantee services have not been interrupted. In this situation, the "Halt On
When BIOS Defects" message may be disabled to avoid system pauses
during normal booting. Another advantage you gain from Giga-Byte’s
DualBIOSTM technology is the ability to upgrade from dual 2 Mbit BIOS to
dual 4 Mbit BIOS in the future if extra BIOS storage is need.

1.6 What is AGP?
The Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) is a new port on the Host-To-PCI bridge
device that supports an AGP port. The main purpose of the AGP port is to
provide fast access to system memory.
The AGP port can be used either as fast PCI port (32-bits at 66MHz vs.32-Bits
at 33MHz) or as an AGP port which supports 2x data-rate, a read queue, and
side band addressing. When the 2x-data rate is used the port can transmit
data at 533MB/sec (66.6*2*4). The read-queue can be used to pipeline reads –
removing the effects of the reads-latency. Side band addressing can be used
to transmit the data address on a separate line in order to speed up the
transaction.

3. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
3.1. UNPACKING
The main board package should contain the following:
• The
BX2000+
main board.
•
The Universal Retention Mechanism & Attach Mount
•
USER’S MANUAL for main board.
• Cable set for DMA66/33 device, Floppy device.
•
CD for main board Utility.
The main board contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so the main board 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 main board 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 main board 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.

3.4. DRAM INSTALLATION
The main board can be installed with 8 / 16 / 32 / 64 / 128 / 256 MB 168 pins
DIMM module DRAM, and the DRAM speed must be 67~100 MHz for SDRAM
when system bus speed is set to 66MHz. When system bus speed is set to
100MHz, 100MHz SDRAM is required. The DRAM memory system on main
board consists of bank 0, 1, 2 & bank 3.
Since 168 pins DIMM module is 64 bits width, therefore 1 piece of DIMM
module may match a 64 bits system. The total memory size is 8 MB ~1GB
SDRAM. The DRAM installation position refer to Figure 3.1, and notice 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 angle. If there is a wrong
direction of Pin 1, the DRAM DIMM module could not be inserted into socket
completely.
3.5. CPU SPEED SETUP
The system bus speed can be set to 66 / 100MHz form the DIP SWITCH (SW).
The user can change the DIP SWITCH selection to set up the CPU speed for
different processors.

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 main board.
3.6. CMOS RTC & ISA CFG CMOS RAM
There're RTC & CMOS RAM on board; they have a power supply from external
battery to keep the DATA inviolate & effective. The RTC is a REAL-TIME
CLOCK device, which provides the DATE & TIME to system. The CMOS RAM
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 after it cannot
work.
M
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
M
Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the
manufacturer.

3.7. SPEAKER CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
There is a speaker in AT system for sound purpose. The 4 - Pins connector
SPKR
is used to connect speaker. Anode connects +, Cathode connects −.
3.8. HARDWARE RESET SWITCH CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
The RESET switch on panel provides users with HARDWARE RESET function.
The system will do a cold start after the RESET switch is pushed and released
by user. The RESET switch is a 2 PIN connector and should be installed to
RST
on main board.
3.9. POWER LED CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
System has Power LED lamp on the panel of case. The Power LED will light on
off or flash to indicate which step on the system. The connector should be
connected to
PWR
of main board in correct direction.
3.10. IDE & ATAPI DEVICE INSTALLATION
There are two-Enhanced PCI IDE ports (
IDE1, IDE2
) on board, which following
ATAPI standard SPEC. Any one IDE port can connected to two ATAPI devices
(IDE Hard Disk, CD-ROM & Tape Driver), so total four ATAPI devices can exist
in a system. The
HD
is the active LED port for ATAPI devices.
3.11. PERIPHERAL DEVICE INSTALLATION
After the I/O device installation and jumpers setup, the main board can be
mounted into the case and fixed by screw. To complete the main board
installation, the peripheral device could be installed now. The basic system
needs a display interface card. If the PCI - Bus device is to be installed in the
system, any one of four PCI - Bus slots can be used.
3.12. KEYBOARD & PS/2 MOUSE INSTALLATION
The main board supports PS/2 Mouse. The BIOS will auto detect whether the
PS/2 Mouse is installed or not & assign IRQ12 for PS/2 Mouse port if it is
installed. After installing the peripheral device, the user should check
everything again, and prepare to power-on the system.
