Chapter 4 BIOS Setup

This chapter describes the different settings available in the AMI BIOS that comes with the board. The topics covered in this chapter are as follows:

• Main Settings

• Advanced Settings

• Chipset Settings

• Security Settings

• Boot Settings

• Save & Exit

BIOS Setup

SI-626 User Manual

4.1 Introduction

The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in the ROM of your computer system supports Intel® processors. The BIOS provides critical low-level support for standard devices such as disk drives, serial ports and parallel ports. It also provides password protection as well as special support for detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.

4.2 BIOS Setup

The BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the system configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores the Setup utility. When you turn on the computer, the BIOS is immediately activated. Press the <Del> key immediately allows you to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit late pressing the <Del> key, POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its test routines, thus preventing you from invoking the Setup.

If you still need to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing the ”Reset”

button or simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. You can also restart by turning the system Off and back On again.

The following message will appear on the screen:

Press <DEL> to Enter Setup

In general, press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to select, the <PgUp> and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help, and <Esc> to quit.

When you enter the BIOS Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will appear on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup functions and exit choices.

Warning: It is strongly recommended that you avoid making any changes to

the chipset defaults.

These defaults have been carefully chosen by both AMI and your

system manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability. Changing the defaults could make the system unstable and crash in some cases.

A. AMD Eyefinity Multiple Displays Configuration

AMD Eyefinity is applicable to SI-61S; it is a technology that allows two or more displays to be grouped together to form a single large desktop. Once AMD Eyefinity is configured, the final resolution is the horizontal and/or vertical sum of the individual monitors.

The following AMD embedded configurations are used for the demonstration of AMD Eyefinity configuration in this section.

Platform: AMD Embedded V1000 Reference Platform APU: AMD Embedded V1000 Processor with AMD Radeon Vega Graphics AMD Driver: 17.40.3775.1003.180508a-328988C-AES

A.1 Setting Up AMD Eyefinity Using Quick Setup

A.1.1 AMD Eyefinity Quick Setup with All Displays

This section describes how to set up AMD Eyefinity with the Quick Setup option, where all the connected displays will be part of the AMD Eyefinity Display Group created.

As AMD Eyefinity Quick Setup creates an Eyefinity Display Group based on the current (default) display configuration, ensure that the displays are arranged in the desired supported order first under extended desktop in the Operating System’s display settings.

In the below example, Eyefinity Quick Setup is used to create a 3x1 AMD Eyefinity Display Group. So, arrange the displays in a 3x1 configuration in extended desktop before configuring AMD Eyefinity with Quick Setup.

To set up AMD Eyefinity with Quick Setup:

1. Open AMD Radeon Settings: Right-click on the desktop and select AMD

Radeon Settings.

Appendix

SI-626 User Manual

2. Click Eyefinity once AMD Radeon Settings opens.

3. Click Quick Setup to automatically create an AMD Eyefinity Display

Group based on the current (default) display configuration.

Note: At the time of writing, Advanced Setup for configuring Eyefinity is

available. However, this feature is not supported. Do not confuse with Try Advanced Setup (see below picture), which becomes available after Eyefinity Quick Setup is complete. The Try Advanced Setup option is used to customize the Eyefinity Display Group created after Eyefinity Quick Setup is complete.

SI-626 User Manual

4. In this example, a 3x1 Eyefinity Display Group is created as shown below.

5. Once the AMD Eyefinity Display Group is created, the following options

become available:

• Discard – Removes the AMD Eyefinity setup and restores the previous display configuration.

• Arrange Displays –Arrange the position of each display in the AMD Eyefinity Display Group. Refer to the next section Arrange Displays after Eyefinity Quick Setup for details.

• Try Advanced Setup – Additional settings to customize the AMD Eyefinity Display Group. Refer to A.2 Customizing AMD Eyefinity Using Try Advanced Setup for details.

Arrange Displays after Eyefinity Quick Setup

To arrange displays in desired positions (optional):

1. Click Arrange Displays after Eyefinity Quick Setup is complete.

Appendix

SI-626 User Manual

2. The onscreen guide will show a grid representation of the Eyefinity Display Group and one of the physical displays will have a blue background.

3. Click on the box in the grid that matches the desired location of the highlighted display in blue.

4. Repeat Step #3 with the rest of displays to complete the Arrange Displays setup.

A.1.2 AMD Eyefinity Quick Setup with Part of All Displays

As mentioned previously, since Eyefinity Quick Setup uses the current (default) display configuration which involves all the connected displays, configuring Eyefinity with only a portion of the connected displays is not allowed.

For example, setting up 3 x 1 Eyefinity with 4 connected displays is not possible with Eyefinity Quick Setup.

The following example, which sets up 3 x 1 Eyefinity (Quick Setup) with a total of 4 x 4k connected displays, demonstrates the method to work around the limitation:

1. Physically connect the displays to be used for the Eyefinity Display Group. In this setup, the number of displays for Eyefinity should be less than the total number of displays to be used in the overall setup (i.e. Eyefinity Display Group + Extended Desktop Displays).

In this example, physically connect 3 of the 4 displays first and arrange

them in 3 x 1 extended desktop in the Operating System’s display

settings.

SI-626 User Manual

2. Follow the steps in Section 2.1, “AMD Eyefinity Quick Setup with All Displays” to configure Eyefinity.

In this example, a 3 x 1 Eyefinity Display Group has been created with 3 x 4k displays after Eyefinity Quick Setup is complete.

3. Once the 3 x 1 Eyefinity Display Group is created, connect (hotplug) the fourth display to the AMD graphics device.

The resulting setup consists of a 3 x 1 Eyefinity Display Group (11520 x 2160 resolution) + 1 x 4k (3840 x 2160 resolution) (in extended desktop).

A.2 Customizing AMD Eyefinity Using Try Advanced Setup

Try Advanced Setup becomes available after Eyefinity Quick Setup is

complete (see above picture). It offers customization for the Eyefinity Display Group created, with options such as:

• Position Windows Taskbar

• Arrange Eyefinity Display Group

• Resize Desktop

• Disable Eyefinity Display Group

• Adjust Bezel Compensation

• Customize Eyefinity Desktop Resolution

A.2.1 Position Windows Taskbar

The Position Windows Taskbar option allows adjusting the Taskbar across all displays in the Eyefinity Display Group or in one preferred display. By default, the Taskbar extends across all displays in a single row AMD Eyefinity Display Group. In a multi-row AMD Eyefinity Display Group, it extends across the bottom row of displays.

Appendix

SI-626 User Manual

To set the Taskbar position:

1. Click Try Advanced Setup (under Eyefinity tab in AMD Radeon Settings) after Eyefinity Quick Setup is complete.

2. Click Position Windows Taskbar once Radeon Additional Settings launches.

3. Check the Position the Windows taskbar on a single display option and click Continue.

4. To move the Taskbar, simply drag and drop it to the desired display. Ensure that the Taskbar setting is not set to “locked”.

5. To have the Taskbar running across multiple displays again, uncheck the

Position the Windows taskbar on a single display option and click Continue.
