ESD Precautions
Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static
electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic
discharge, observe the following precautions:
Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their
anti-static packaging until you are ready to install them.
Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an
unpainted portion of the system unit chassis for a few
seconds. This helps to discharge any static electricity on
your body.
Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most
electronic component stores, when handling boards and
components.

Chapter 7 Award BIOS Utility
Please pay more time and check all of detailed information for
BIOS settings when you want to used the IMB200
7.1 BIOS Introduction
The Award BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your
computer system’s ROM supports Intel Celeron processors in
a standard IBM-AT compatible I/O system. The BIOS provides
critical low-level support for standard devices such as disk
drives, serial and parallel ports. It also adds virus and
password protection as well as special support for detailed
fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.
7.2 BIOS Setup
The Award 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 Award BIOS is immediately activated.
Pressing 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 wish 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, you 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 Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will
appear on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select
36
Award BIOS Utility
IMB200 LGA775 ATX MB User Manual
from various setup functions and exit choices.
The section below the setup items of the Main Menu displa ys
the control keys for this menu. Another section located at the
bottom of the Main Menu, just below the control keys sectio n,
displays information on the currently highlighted item in the list.
NOTE: If you find that your computer cannot boot
after making and saving system changes with Setup,
the Award BIOS, via its built-in override feature,
resets your system to the CMOS default settings.
We strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to
the chipset defaults. These defaults have been carefully
chosen by both Award and your system manufacturer to
provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability.

7.3 Standard CMOS Setup
“Standard CMOS Setup” allows you to record some basic
hardware configurations in your computer system and set the
system clock and error handling. If the motherboard is already
installed in a working system, you will not need to select this
option. You will need to run the Standard CMOS option,
however, if you change your system hardware configurations,
the onboard battery fails, or the configuration stored in the
CMOS memory was lost or damaged.

From overheating to ensure a safe computing environment.
z Thermal Management

This field is used to select the boot sequence of the hard
drives. Move the cursor to thi s field then press <Enter>. Use
the Up or Down arrow keys to select a device then press<+>
to move it up or <-> to move it down the list.
z Virus Warning
This item protects the boot sector and partitio n table of your hard
disk against accidental modifications. If an attempt is made, the
BIOS will halt the system and display a warning message. If this
occurs, you can either allow the operation to continue or run an
anti-virus program to locate and remove the problem.
NOTE: Many disk diagnostic programs, which attempt
to access the boot sector table, can cause the virus
warning. If you will run such a program, disable the
Virus Warning feature.
z Quick Power On Self Test
Enabling this setting will cause the BIOS power-on self test
routine to skip some of its tests during boot up. One of the key
things this setting usually does when enabled is cause the
POST to skip checking all of extended memory for errors.
Award Bios Utility 43
IMB200 LGA775 ATX MB User Manual
Most people enable this setting to speed up the boot process,
but you should realize that you do increase the chance of the
POST missing an error if you use this. Fortunately (or
unfortunately) the POST memory test is virtually useless to
detect
transient memory errors (as opposed to hard errors that
you would discover the first time you powered up the machine
with the new memory in it), so once your system is running and
stable, you can in most cases enable this setting safely. It's
still safest to leave it disabled, which is what I recommend
unless you have truly monstrous amounts of RAM. After all,
how often do you boot the system during normal use.
z
First/Second/Third Boot Device
These items allow the selection of the 1
st

z Boot Other Device
This item allows the user to enable/disable the boot device
not listed on the First/Second/Third boot devices option
above. The default setting is enabled.
z Swap Floppy Drive
This allows you to determine whether to enable Swap
Floppy Drive or not. When enabled, the BIOS swap floppy
drive assignments so that Drive A becomes Drive B and
Drive B become Drive A. By default, this field is set to
Disabled.
z Boot Up Floppy Seek
During POST, BIOS will determine the floppy disk drive
type, 40 or 80 tracks, installed in the system. 360Kb type is
40 tracks while 720Kb, 1.2MB and 1.44MB are all 80 tracks.

better! However, same as above, lowering this setting only
improves performance minimally, so it might be better to
increase this setting to gain stability or a higher over clock.
z DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay
This refers to the Row Address Strobe to Column Address
Strobe delay time. Lower is better! This is the most crucial
setting in a P4 system! Lowering this setting improves
performance quite noticeably, so you might want to sacrifice
some clock speed to lower this timing.

AGP Aperture Size (MB)
This field determines the effective size of the Graphic
Aperture used for a particular GMCH configuration. It can
be updated by the GMCH-specific BIOS configuration
sequence before the PCI standard bus enumeration
sequence takes place. If it is not updated then a default
value will select an aperture of maximum size.
z In it Display First
This BIOS feature allows you to select whether to boot the system
using the AGP graphics card or the PCI graphics card. This is
particularly important if you have AGP and PCI graphics cards but
only one monitor.
If you are only using a single graphics card, then the BIOS will detect
it as such and boot it up, irrespective of what you set the feature to.
However, there may be a slight reduction in the time taken to detect
and initialize the card if you select the proper setting for this BIOS
feature. For example, if you only use an AGP graphics card, then
setting Init Display First to AGP may speed up your system's bootingup process.
Therefore, if you are only using a single graphics card, it is
recommended that you set the Init Display First feature to the proper
setting for your system (AGP for a single AGP card and PCI for a
single PCI card).
