In this manual, some signals are represented in a small, all-capital-letter format (-ACK). A minus sign in front of the signal indicates that the signal is active low. No sign in front of the signal indicates that the signal is active high.
The use of the term When numerical modifiers such as K, M, and G are used, they typically indicate powers of 2, not powers
of 10. For example, 1 KB equals 1024 bytes (210), 1 MB equals 1048576 bytes (220), and 1 GB equals 1 073 741 824 bytes (230).

IDE bus master interface
The system board incorporates a PCI-to-IDE interface that complies with the
with Extensions
The bus master for the IDE interface is integrated into the I/O hub of the Intel 840 chip set. The chip set is PCI 2.2 compliant. It connects directly to the PCI bus and is designed to allow concurrent operations on the PCI bus and IDE bus. The chip set is capable of supporting PIO mode 0–4 devices and IDE DMA mode 0–3 devices, and ATA 66 transfers of up to 66 MBps.
The IDE devices receive their power through a four-position power cable containing +5dc, +12dc, and ground voltage. When devices are added to the IDE interface, one device is designated as the master device and another is designated as the slave or subordinate device. These designations are determined by switches or jumpers on each device. There are two IDE ports, one designated Primary and the other Secondary, allowing for up to four devices to be attached. The total number of physical IDE devices is determined by the mechanical package.
For the IDE interface, no resource assignments are given in the system memory or the direct memory access (DMA) channels. For information on the resource assignments, see “Input/output address map” on page 32 and Figure 34 on page 36 (for IRQ assignments).

Chapter 6. System compatibility
Chapter 6. System compatibility
This chapter discusses some of the hardware, software, and BIOS compatibility issues for the computer.
Hardware compatibility
This section discusses hardware, software, and BIOS compatibility issues that must be considered when designing application programs.
The functional interfaces are compatible with the following interfaces:
Intel 8259 interrupt controllers (edge-triggered mode)
National Semiconductor NS16450 and NS16550A serial communication controllers
Motorola MC146818 Time of Day Clock command and status (CMOS reorganized)
Intel 8254 timer, driven from a 1.193 MHz clock (channels 0, 1, and 2)
Intel 8237 DMA controller, except for the Command and Request registers and the Rotate and
Mask functions; the Mode register is partially supported
Intel 8272 or 82077 diskette drive controllers
Intel 8042 keyboard controller at addresses hex 0060 and hex 0064
All video standards using VGA, EGA, CGA, MDA, and Hercules modes
Parallel printer ports (Parallel 1, Parallel 2, and Parallel 3) in compatibility mode
Use this information to develop application programs. Whenever possible, use the BIOS as a hardware interface for maximum compatibility and portability of applications.
Hardware interrupts
Hardware interrupts are level-sensitive for PCI interrupts. The interrupt controller clears its in-service register bit when the interrupt routine sends an End-of-Interrupt (EOI) command to the controller. The EOI command is sent regardless of whether the incoming interrupt request to the controller is active or inactive.
The interrupt-in-progress latch is readable at an I/O-address bit position. This latch is read during the interrupt service routine and might be reset by the read operation or it might require an explicit reset.
Note: For performance and latency considerations, designers might want to limit the number of
devices sharing an interrupt level.
With level-sensitive interrupts, the interrupt controller requires that the interrupt request be inactive at the time the EOI command is sent; otherwise, a new interrupt request will be detected. To avoid this, a level-sensitive interrupt handler must clear the interrupt condition (usually by a read or write operation to an I/O port on the device causing the interrupt). After processing the interrupt, the interrupt handler:
1. Clears the interrupt
2. Waits one I/O delay
3. Sends the EOI
4. Waits one I/O delay
5. Enables the interrupt through the Set Interrupt Enable Flag command

Chapter 6. System compatibility
Hardware interrupt IRQ9 is defined as the replacement interrupt level for the cascade level IRQ2. Program interrupt sharing is implemented on IRQ2, interrupt hex 0A. The following processing occurs to maintain compatibility with the IRQ2 used by IBM Personal Computer products:
1. A device drives the interrupt request active on IRQ2 of the channel.
2. This interrupt request is mapped in hardware to IRQ9 input on the second interrupt controller.
3. When the interrupt occurs, the system microprocessor passes control to the IRQ9 (interrupt hex
71) interrupt handler.
4. This interrupt handler performs an EOI command to the second interrupt controller and passes control to the IRQ2 (interrupt hex 0A) interrupt handler.
5. This IRQ2 interrupt handler, when handling the interrupt, causes the device to reset the interrupt request before performing an EOI command to the master interrupt controller that finishes servicing the IRQ2 request.
Hard disk drives and controller
Reading from and writing to the hard disk is initiated in the same way as in IBM Personal Computer products; however, new functions are supported.
Software compatibility
To maintain software compatibility, the interrupt polling mechanism that is used by IBM Personal Computer products is retained. Software that interfaces with the reset port for the IBM Personal Computer positive-edge interrupt sharing (hex address 02Fx or 06Fx, where x is the interrupt level) does not create interference.
Software interrupts
With the advent of software interrupt sharing, software interrupt routines must daisy chain interrupts. Each routine must check the function value, and if it is not in the range of function calls for that routine, it must transfer control to the next routine in the chain. Because software interrupts are initially pointed to address 0:0 before daisy chaining, check for this case. If the next routine is pointed to address 0:0 and the function call is out of range, the appropriate action is to set the carry flag and do a RET 2 to indicate an error condition.
Machine-sensitive programs
Programs can select machine-specific features, but they must first identify the machine and model type. IBM has defined methods for uniquely determining the specific machine type. The machine model byte can be found through Interrupt 15H, Return System Configuration Parameters function (AH)=(C0H).

and the
Hardware Maintenance Manual
provide complete lists of error
POST error codes
POST error messages appear when, during startup, POST finds problems with the hardware or a change in the hardware configuration. POST error messages are 3-, 4-, 5-, 8-, or 12-character alphanumeric messages.
Beep codes
Beep codes are a series of tones in sets of two or three that sound when there are POST errors. The beep pattern represents numeric v alues and provide further information about the location of a potential problem.
