CPU Speed Setup

The system bus frequency can be switched at 66MHz, 100MHz, 133MHz and Auto by adjusting
JP4/JP24 (See Figure 1). The CPU Frequency is control by BIOS.

M

The CPU speed must match with the frequency RATIO. It will cause system hanging up

if the frequency RATIO is higher than that of CPU.

«Note: Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor’s
specifications. We don’t recommend you to set the system bus frequency over
the CPU’s specification because these specific bus frequencies are not the
standard specifications for CPU, chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether
your system can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will depend
on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Chipsets, SDRAM,
Cards….etc.

Note : JP24 is only available when the motherboard use 82810E chipset.

«Note : 133MHz only 82810E support.

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.

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.
C. After setup completes, remove the CD, and reboot your system
(This manual assumes that your CD-ROM device drive letter is D:).

31

Step 2:

(If you want to use STR Function, please set jumper JP3 Closed.)

& STR(Default)

Step 3:

Power on the computer and as soon as memory counting starts, press <Del>. You will enter
BIOS Setup. Select the item “POWER MANAGEMENT SETUP”, then select “ACPI Suspend
Type:S3 (Suspend to RAM)”. Remember to save the settings by pressing "ESC" and choose
the “SAVE & EXIT SETUP” option.

Congratulation! You have completed the installation and now can use the STR function.

32

6WMZ7 Series Motherboard

A.3 How to put your system into STR mode?

There are two ways to accomplish this:

1. Choose the “Stand by” item in the “Shut Down Windows” area.

A. Press the “Start” button and then select “Shut Down”

B. Choose the “Stand by” item and press “OK”

33

Suspend to RAM Installation

34

6WMZ7 Series Motherboard

2. Define the system ”power on” button to initiate STR sleep mode:

A. Double click “My Computer” and then “Control Panel”

B. Double click the “ Power Management” item.

35

Suspend to RAM Installation

C. Select the “Advanced” tab and “Standby” mode in Power Buttons.

Step 4:

Restart your computer to complete setup.
Now when you want to enter STR sleep mode, just momentarily press the “Power on”

button..

A.4 How to recover from the STR sleep mode?

There are seven ways to “wake up” the system:

1. Press the “Power On” button.

2. Use the “Keyboard Power On” function.

3. Use the “Mouse Power On” function.

4. Use the “Resume by Alarm” function.

5. Use the “Modem Ring On” function.

6. Use the “Wake On LAN” function.

A.5 Notices :

In order for STR to function properly, several hardware and software requirements must be

satisfied:
A. Your ATX power supply must comply with the ATX 2.01 specification (provide more

than 720 mA 5V Stand-By current).

B. Your SDRAM must be PC-100 compliant.

2. Jumper JP22 is provided to connect to the STR LED in your system chassis. [Your chassis
may not provide this feature.] The STR LED will be illuminated when your system is in STR
sleep mode.

Memory Installation

The motherboard has 2 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 MB X 1 pcs
DIMM2 Supports 16 / 32 / 64 / 128 / 256 MB 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

The category determines whether the computer will stop if an error is detected during power
up.

NO Errors The system boot will not stop for any error that may be

detected and you will be prompted

All Errors Whenever the BIOS detects a non-fatal error the system will

be stopped

All, But Keyboard The system boot will not stop for a keyboard error; it will stop

for all other errors

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.

2. System restarts.

3. System starts to recognize every new component.

Appendix

Appendix C : BIOS Flash Procedure

BIOS update procedure:

ü Please check your BIOS vendor (AMI or AWARD) on the motherboard.

ü It is recommended you copy the AWDFlash.exe or AMIFlash.exe in driver CD

(D:\>Utility\BIOSFlash) and the BIOS binary files into the directory you made in your hard
disk. ¡ii.e:C:\>Utility\ (C:\>Utility : denotes the driver and the directory where you put the
flash utilities and BIOS file in.)¡j

ü Restart your computer into MS-DOS mode or command prompt only for Win95/98, go into

the directory where the new BIOS file are located use the utility AWDFlash.exe or
AMIFlash.exe to update the BIOS.

ü Type the following command once you have enter the directory where all the files are

located

C:\utility\ AWDFlash or AMIFlash <filename of the BIOS binary file intended for flashing>

ü Once the process is finished, reboot the system

MNote : Please download the newest BIOS from our website (www.gigabyte.com.tw) or contact

your local dealer for the file.
