1.1 Introduction
IMB-X63 With its rich AGP 4X integrated graphics capabilities, flexible FSB settings, and support for DDR
SDRAM, the IMB-X63 delivers excellent levels of scalability and performance on a cost-effective, High
integrated platform designed for the specific needs of the Automation, POS, Information PC, and Internet
Appliance market segments.
Low power VIA C3 CPU + VIA CLE266 – Ultimate Value Combination
IMB-X63 optimizes the performance of the VIA Low power Processor while its integrated AGP 4X graphics
engine delivers rich graphics capabilities for running 2D/3D software and Internet applications. Its highly
scaleable asynchronous bus design also makes it the ideal solution for VIA low power processors running
at 100/133MHz FSB speeds. With an advanced memory controller architecture, the IMB-X63 supports up
to 2GB of DDR/PC2100 SDRAM. These advanced memory technologies provide the bandwidth and
performance necessary for even the most demanding Internet and 3D graphics applications. Further
integrated CPU & multimedia & connectivity features that help minimize the cost of building automation
and Internet Appliances without sacrificing features and performance includ e an integrated 10/100
Base-T Ethernet controller, AC-97 audio, MC-97 modem, Super I/O, hardware monitoring capabilities,
plus support for six USB ports, ATA 100, and advanced powe r management.

Chapter 3 BIOS Setup
Award‘s ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system
configuration and settings. The modified data will be stored in a battery-backed CMOS RAM so that this data
will be retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM
remains unchanged unless there is a configuration change in the system, such as hard drive replacement or
new equipment installment.
3.1 Running AWARD BIOS
The Setup Utility is stored in the BIOS ROM. When the power of the computer system is turned on, a screen
message will appear to give you an opportunity to call up the Setup Utility while the BIOS will enter the Power
On Self Test (POST) routi nes. The POST routines p erform various diagn ostic checks while initializing the
board hardware. If the routines encounter an error during the tests, the error will be reported in one of two
ways, a series of short beeps or an error message on the screen. There are two kinds of errors, fatal and
non-fatal. The system can usually co ntinue the boot up sequence with non-fatal errors. Non-fatal error
messages usually appear on the screen along with the following instructions:
Press <F1> to RESUME
Write down the message and press the F1 key to con tinue the boot up sequence. After the POST routines are
completed, the following message appears:
Press DEL to enter SETUP
Entering Setup
Turn on the power of the computer system and press <Del> immediately. If you don’t have the chance to
respond, reset the system by simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys, or by pushing the
‘ Reset ’ button on the system cabinet. You can also restart by turning the system OFF then ON.

Spread Spectrum: When the system clock generator pulses, the extreme values of the pulse generate
excess EMI. Enabling pulse spectrum spread modulation changes the extreme values from spik es to flat curves,
thus reducing EMI. This benefit may in some cases be outweighed by problems with timing-critical de vices,
such as a clock-sensitive SCSI device.
