USB

High-Speed USB 2.0 Support

✏

NOTES

Use a shielded cable that meets the requirements for a full-speed USB device. Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port might not meet FCC Class B requirements, even if no device or a lowspeed USB device is attached to the cable.

USB devices are limited to USB 1.1 transfer rates prior to operating system and driver initialization.

The server board supports up to six USB 2.0 ports via the ICH5. Four ports are routed to the back panel. One header, supporting up to two ports, is routed to the front panel. USB 2.0 ports are backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices. USB 1.1 devices will function normally at USB 1.1 speeds.

USB 2.0 support requires both an operating system and drivers that fully support USB 2.0 transfer rates. Disabling High-Speed USB in BIOS reverts all USB 2.0 ports to USB 1.1 operation. This may be required to accommodate operating systems that do not support USB 2.0.

Legacy USB Support

Legacy USB support allows USB devices such as keyboard, mice, and hubs to be used even when the operating system’s USB drivers are not available. Legacy USB support is used to access the BIOS Setup program, and to install an operating system that supports USB. By default, Legacy USB support is set to Enabled.

Four of the USB ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors; the other two are accessible via the front panel USB header. The S875WP1-E server board fully supports UHCI and uses UHCI-compatible software drivers.

NOTE

✏

Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not meet FCC Class B requirements, even if no device is attached to the cable. Use s shielded cable that meets the requirements for full-speed devices.

Server Board Features 19

Legacy USB support operates as follows:

1. When the user applies power to the computer, legacy support is disabled.

2. POST begins.

3. Legacy USB support is enabled by the BIOS allowing the user to use a USB keyboard to enter and configure the BIOS Setup program and the maintenance menu.

4. POST completes.

5. The operating system loads. While the operating system is loading, USB keyboard and mice are recognized and may be used to configure the operating system. (Keyboard and mice are not recognized during this period if Legacy USB support is set to Disabled in the BIOS Setup program.)

6. After the operating system loads the USB drivers, all legacy and non-legacy USB devices are recognized by the operating system, and Legacy USB support from the BIOS is no longer used.

To install an operating system that supports USB, verify that Legacy USB support in the BIOS Setup program is set to Enabled and follow the operating system’s installation instructions.

NOTE

✏

Legacy USB support is for keyboard, mice, and hubs only. Other USB devices are not supported in legacy mode.

Server Board Features 21

IDE Interfaces

The ICH5-R IDE controller has two independent bus-mastering IDE interfaces that can be independently enabled. The interface handles the exchange of information between the processor and peripheral devices like hard disks and CD-ROM drives. The IDE interfaces supports:

• Up to four IDE devices (such as hard drives)

• ATAPI devices (such as CD-ROM drives)

• Laser servo (LS-120) drives

• PIO Mode devices

• Ultra DMA-33: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer

rates of up to 33 MB/sec.

• ATA-100/66: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates of up to 100 MB/sec. The ATA-100/66 protocol is similar to Ultra DMA and is device driver compatible.

✏ NOTE

ATA-100/66 is a faster timing and requires a specialized cable to reduce reflections, noise, and inductive coupling.

The IDE interfaces also support ATAPI devices (such as CD-ROM drives) and ATA devices using the transfer modes.

The BIOS supports Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and Extended Cylinder Head Sector (ECHS) translation modes. The drive reports the transfer rate and translation mode to the BIOS.

The S875WP1-E server board supports Laser Servo (LS-120) diskette technology through the IDE interfaces. An LS-120 drive can be configured as a boot device by setting the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu to one of the following:

• ARMD-FDD (ATAPI removable media device – floppy disk drive)

• ARMD-HDD (ATAPI removable media device – hard disk drive)

SCSI Hard Drive Activity LED Connector

The SCSI hard drive activity LED connector is a 1 x 2-pin connector that allows an add-in SCSI controller to use the same LED as the onboard IDE controller. For proper operation, this connector should be wired to the LED output of the add-in SCSI controller. The LED indicates when data is being read from, or written to, both the add-in SCSI controller and the IDE controller.

22 Intel Server Board S875WP1-E Product Guide

Network Interface Controller (NIC)

The server board S875WP1-E supports two Network Interface Controllers (NICs), one that runs at 10/100Mb and is based on the Intel 82562ET NIC and the other that runs at one gigabit and is based on the Intel 82547EI NIC. When looking at the rear of the chassis, the gigabit NIC is at the left (closest to the video port) and the 10/100Mb NIC is at the right. You can disable either or both NICs through BIOS Setup.

The 82562ET is controlled by the ICH5-R and supports the following features:

• Integrated IEEE 802.3 10Base-T and 100Base-TX compatible PHY

Power Management

Power management is implemented at several levels, including:

• Software support through Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)

• Hardware support:

— Suspend to RAM (Instantly Available PC technology) — Power connectors — Fan connectors — Resume on Ring — Wake from USB — Wake from PS/2 keyboard/mouse — PME# wakeup support

Software Support through ACPI

The Advance Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)–aware operating system can place the system into a state where the hard drives spin down, the system fans stop, and all processing is halted. In this state, the power supply is still on and the processors still dissipate some power, so the power supply fan and processor fans are still running.

Under ACPI, the operating system directs all system and device power state transitions. The operating system puts devices in and out of low-power states based on user preferences and knowledge of how devices are being used by applications. Devices that are not being used can be turned off. The operating system uses information from applications and user settings to put the system as a whole into a low-power state.

24 Intel Server Board S875WP1-E Product Guide

ACPI features include:

• Plug and Play (including bus and device enumeration)

• Power management control of individual devices, add-in boards (some add-in boards may

require an ACPI-aware driver), video displays, and hard disk drives

• Methods for achieving less than 15-watt system operation in the power-on/standby sleeping state

• A soft-off feature that enables the operating system to power-off the computer

• Support for multiple wake-up events

• Support for a front panel power and sleep mode switch

The Server Board S875WP1-E supports sleep states S0, S1, S2, S3, S4, and S5. When the server board is operating in ACPI mode, the operating system retains control of the system and the operating system policy determines the entry methods and wake-up sources for each sleep state. Sleep entry and wake-up event capabilities are provided by the hardware but are enabled by the operating system. The following is a summary of the supported sleep states:

• S0: Normal running state.

• S1: Processor sleep state. No context will be lost in this state and the processor caches will

maintain coherency.

• S3: Suspend to RAM (Instantly Available PC Technology).

• S4: Hibernate or Save to Disk. The memory and machine state are saved to disk. Pressing the

power button or another wake-up event restores the system state from the disk and resumes normal operation. This state assumes that no hardware changes were made to the system while it was off.

• S5: Soft off. Only the RTC section of the chipset is running in this state.

CAUTION

The system is off only when the AC power is disconnected.

Table 8 lists the system states based on how long the power switch is pressed, depending on how ACPI is configured with an ACPI-aware operating system.

Table 8. Effects of Pressing the Power Switch under ACPI

Wake-up Devices and Events

CAUTION

For LAN wake capabilities, the 5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing LAN wake capabilities can damage the power supply.

Table 9 provides an overview of the devices or events that can wake the computer from specific states.

Notes:

1. For LAN and PME#, S5 is disabled by default in the BIOS Setup program. Setting this option to Power On will enable a wake-up event from LAN in the S5 state.

(Note 1) (Note 1) (Note 1) (Note 1)

, S5 , S5 , S5 , S5

NOTE

✏

The use of these wake-up events from an ACPI state requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. In addition, software, drivers, and peripherals must fully support ACPI wake events.

LAN Wake

LAN wake capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network. The LAN subsystem PCI bus network adapter monitors network traffic at the Media Independent Interface. Upon detecting a Magic Packet

frame, the LAN subsystem asserts a wake-up signal that wakes up

the computer from ACPI S1, S3, S4, and S5 state. Depending on the LAN implementation, the S875WP1-E server board supports LAN wake

capabilities with ACPI in the following ways:

• The PCI bus PME# signal for PCI 2.2 compliant LAN designs

• The onboard LAN subsystem

PCI via PME# Wake-up Support

When the PME# signal on the PCI bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI S1, S3, S4, or S5 state (with Wake on PME enabled in BIOS).

26 Intel Server Board S875WP1-E Product Guide

Resume on Ring

Resume on Ring enables telephony devices to access the computer when it is in a power-managed state. The operation of Resume on Ring wakes the system from the S1 or S3 sleep states when a signal is sent to the serial port at the rear or the chassis or to an internally installed modem. Resume on ring can be summarized as follows:

• Resumes operation from ACPI S1 or S3 states

• Requires only one call to access the computer

• Detects incoming call similarly for external and internal modems

• Requires modem interrupt be unmasked for correct operation

Wake from USB

USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 or S3 state.

NOTE

✏

Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB.

Wake from PS/2 Devices

PS/2 device activity, such as moving a PS/2 mouse or pressing a key on a PS/2 keyboard, wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 or S3 state.

Hardware Support

The S875WP1-E server board provides several power management hardware features, including:

• Power connector

• Fan connectors

• Instantly Available PC technology

Instantly Available PC technology and LAN Wake require power from the +5 V standby line. The sections discussing these features describe the incremental standby power requirements.

CAUTION

Ensure that the power supply provides adequate +5 V standby current if Instantly Available PC technology features is used. Failure to do so can damage the power supply. The total amount of standby current required depends on the wake devices supported and manufacturing options.

Server Board Features 27

Power Connector

When used with an ATX12V or EPS12V compliant power supply that supports remote power on/off, the S875WP1-E server board can turn off the system power through software control. When the system BIOS receives the correct command from the operating system, the BIOS turns off power to the computer.

With soft-off enabled, if power to the computer is interrupted by a power outage or a disconnected power cord, when power resumes, the computer returns to the power state it was in before power was interrupted (on or off). The computer’s response can be set using the After Power Failure feature in the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu.

NOTE

✏

A standard ATX 20 pin power connector and standard ATX 12V 4-pin 2x2 connector can be used to power the S875WP1-E board. Plug the power cables into the pin 1 end of their respective motherboard connectors, leaving pins 21-24 unused on the main power connector and 5-8 unused on the 12V connector.

Instantly Available PC Technology

CAUTION

For Instantly Available PC technology, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing Instantly Available PC technology can damage the power supply.

The S875WP1-E server board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification. An add-in board that supports this specification can participate in power management and can be used to wake the computer.

The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and PCI 2.2 compliant add-in cards and drivers.

The standby power indicator LED shows that power is still present even when the computer appears to be off. Figure 4 shows the location of the standby power indicator LED.

CAUTION

If AC power has been switched off and the standby power indicator is still lit, disconnect the power cord before installing or removing any devices connected to the board. Failure to do so could damage the board and any attached devices.

Password Security

The BIOS includes security features that restrict whether the BIOS Setup program can be accessed and who can boot the server. A supervisor password and a user password can be set for the Setup menu and for booting the server, with the following restrictions:

• The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all Setup options. If

only the supervisor password is set, pressing <Enter> at the password prompt of Setup gives the user restricted access to Setup.

• If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, you must enter either the supervisor password

or the user password to access Setup. Setup options are then available for viewing and changing depending on whether the supervisor or user password was entered.

• Setting a user password restricts who can boot the server. The password prompt is displayed

before the server is booted. If only the supervisor password is set, the server boots without asking for a password. If both passwords are set, you can enter either password to boot the server.

Real-Time Clock, CMOS SRAM, and Battery

The real-time clock provides a time-of-day clock and a multi-century calendar with alarm features. The real-time clock supports 256 bytes of battery-backed CMOS SRAM in two banks that are reserved for BIOS use.

A coin-cell battery (CR2032) powers the real-time clock and CMOS memory. When the computer is not plugged into a wall socket, the battery has an estimated life of three years. When the computer is plugged in, the standby current from the power supply extends the life of the battery. The clock is accurate to ± 13 minutes/year at 25 ºC with 3.3 VSB applied.

The time, date, and CMOS values can be specified in the BIOS Setup program. The CMOS values can be returned to their defaults by using the BIOS Setup program.

✏ NOTE

If the battery and AC power fail, custom defaults, will be loaded into CMOS RAM at power-on if they defaults have been previously saved.

Recovering the CMOS

In the unlikely event that the CMOS should be corrupt, it can be cleared by using a jumper setting on the server board. To recover the CMOS and return the settings to the default value:

1. Power down the server and unplug all AC power cables.

2. Remove the cover from the chassis.

3. Move the jumper at jumper block J8G1 to cover pins 2 and three. For the location of jumper block J8G1, see the figure below.

J8G1

4. Reattach the AC power cables and power on the server.

5. Power down the server and again remove all AC power cables.

6. Replace the jumper at jumper block J8G1 so that it covers pins 1 and 2.

7. Replace the chassis cover and re-attach the AC power cables.

8. Power on the server.

9. Reconfigure settings as necessary.

BIOS

The S875WP1-E server board uses an Intel/AMI BIOS that is stored in the Firmware Hub (FWH) and can be updated using a disk-based program. The FWH contains the BIOS Setup program, POST, the PCI auto-configuration utility, and Plug and Play support.

The S875WP1-E server board supports system BIOS shadowing, allowing the BIOS to execute from 64-bit onboard write-protected system memory.

The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code. The initial production BIOS is identified as WP87510A.86B.

When the S875WP1-E server board’s jumper is set to configuration mode and the server is powered-up, the BIOS compares the processor version and the microcode version in the BIOS and reports if the two match.

PCI Auto Configuration

The BIOS can automatically configure PCI devices. PCI devices may be onboard or add-in cards. Auto configuration lets a user insert or remove PCI cards without having to configure the system. When a user turns on the system after adding a PCI card, the BIOS automatically configures interrupts, the I/O space, and other system resources. Any interrupts set to Available in Setup are considered to be available for use by the add-in card. Auto configuration information is stored in ESCD format.

IDE Auto Configuration

If you select Auto in the BIOS Setup program, the BIOS automatically sets up the two IDE connectors with independent I/O channel support. The IDE interface supports hard drives up to ATA-66/100 and recognizes any ATAPI compliant devices, including CD-ROM drives, tape drives, and Ultra DMA drives.

The BIOS determines the capabilities of each drive and configures them to optimize capacity and performance. To take advantage of the high capacities typically available today, hard drives are automatically configured for Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and to PIO Mode 3 or 4, depending on the capability of the drive. You can override the auto-configuration options by specifying manual configuration in the BIOS Setup program.

Server Board Features 33

To use ATA-66/100 features the following items are required:

• An ATA-66/100 peripheral device

• An ATA-66/100 compatible cable

• ATA-66/100 operating system device drivers

NOTE

✏

ATA-66/100-compatible cables are backward-compatible with drives using slower IDE transfer protocols. If an ATA-66/100 disk drive and a disk drive using any other IDE transfer protocol are attached to the same cable, the maximum transfer rate between the drives is reduced to that of the slowest device.

BIOS Updates

The BIOS can be updated with the Intel® Flash Memory Update Utility. This utility is available on

the Intel World Wide Web site. The Intel boot diskette and manual rebooting of the system. With this utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a 1.44 MB diskette (from a legacy diskette drive or an LS-120 diskette drive) or from a CD-ROM disk.

Flash Memory Update Utility requires creation of a

This utility support the following BIOS maintenance functions:

• Verifies that the updated BIOS matches the target system to prevent accidentally installing an incompatible BIOS.

• Updates both the BIOS boot block and the main BIOS. This process is fault tolerant to prevent boot block corruption.

• Updates the BIOS boot block separately.

• Changes the language section of the BIOS.

• Updates replaceable BIOS modules, such as the video BIOS module.

• Inserts a custom splash screen.

NOTE

✏

Review the instructions distributed with the upgrade utility before attempting a BIOS update.

Language Support

The BIOS Setup program and help messages are supported in two languages: US English and Spanish. Additional languages may be flashed in if desired (German, Italian, and French available). The default language of US English is used unless another language is selected in the BIOS Setup program.

34 Intel Server Board S875WP1-E Product Guide

Custom Splash Screen

During POST, an Intel splash screen is displayed by default. This splash screen can be replaced with a custom splash screen. A utility is available from Intel to assist with creating a custom splash screen. The custom splash screen can be programmed into the flash memory using the BIOS upgrade utility. Information about this capability is available on the Intel Support World Wide Web site.

Recovering BIOS Data

Some types of failure can destroy the BIOS. For example, the data can be lost if a power outage occurs while the BIOS is being updated in flash memory. The BIOS can be recovered from a diskette using the BIOS recovery mode. When recovering the BIOS, be aware of the following:

• Because of the small amount of code available in the non-erasable boot block area, there is no video support. The user can only monitor this procedure by listening to the speaker or looking at the diskette drive LED.

• The recovery process may take several minutes; larger BIOS flash memory devices require more time.

• Two beeps and the end of activity in the diskette drive indicate successful BIOS recovery.

• A series of continuous beeps indicates a failed BIOS recovery.

To create a BIOS recovery diskette, a bootable diskette must be created and the BIOS update files copied to it. BIOS upgrades and the Intel Flash Memory Update Utility are available from Intel Customer Support through the Intel World Wide Web site.

NOTE

✏

Even if the computer is configured to boot from an LS-120 diskette, the BIOS recovery diskette must be a standard 1.44 MB diskette, not a 120 MB diskette.

Boot Options

In the BIOS Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a diskette drive, a hard drive, a CD-ROM drive, or the network. The default setting is for the diskette drive to be the first boot device, the hard drive second, and the ATAPI CD-ROM third. The fourth device is disabled.

CD-ROM and Network Boot

Booting from CD-ROM is supported in compliance with the El Torito bootable CD-ROM format specification. Under the Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program, ATAPI CD-ROM is listed as a boot device. Boot devices are defined in priority order. Accordingly, if there is not a bootable CD in the CD-ROM drive, the system will attempt to boot from the next defined drive.

The network can be selected as a boot device. This selection allows booting from the on-board NIC or a network add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed.

Server Board Features 35

Booting Without Attached Devices

For use in embedded applications, the BIOS has been designed so that after passing the POST, the operating system loader is invoked even if the following devices are not present:

• Video adapter

• Keyboard

• Mouse

Fast Booting Systems with Intel® Rapid BIOS Boot

These factors affect system boot speed:

• Selecting and configuring peripherals properly

• Using an optimized BIOS, such as the Intel Rapid BIOS

Intel Rapid BIOS Boot

Using the following BIOS Setup program settings reduces the POST execution time. In the Boot Menu:

• Set the hard disk drive as the first boot device. As a result, the POST does not first seek a diskette drive, which saves about one second from the POST execution time.

• Disable Quiet Boot, which eliminates display of the logo splash screen. This could save several seconds of painting complex graphic images and changing video modes.

• Enabled Intel diskette drive.

✏

NOTE

It is possible to optimize the boot process to the point where the system boots so quickly that the Intel logo screen (or a custom logo splash screen) will not be seen. Monitors and hard disk drives with minimum initialization times can also contribute to a boot time that might be so fast that necessary logo screens and POST messages cannot be seen.

This boot time may be so fast that some drives might be not be initialized at all. If this condition should occur, it is possible to introduce a programmable delay ranging from three to 30 seconds (using the Hard Disk Pre-Delay feature of the Advanced Menu in the Drive Configuration Submenu of the BIOS Setup program).

System Management BIOS (SMBIOS)

SMBIOS is a Server Management Interface (DMI) compliant method for managing computers in a managed network.

The main component of SMBIOS is the Management Information Format (MIF) database, which contains information about the computing system and its components. Using SMBIOS, a system administrator can obtain the system types, capabilities, operational status, and installation dates for system components. The MIF database defines the data and provides the method for accessing this information. The BIOS enables applications such as third-party management software to use SMBIOS.

The BIOS stores and reports the following SMBIOS information:

• BIOS data, such as the BIOS revision level

• Fixed-system data, such as peripherals, serial numbers, and asset tags

• Resource data, such as memory size, cache size, and processor speed

• Dynamic data, such as event detection and error logging

Non-Plug and Play operating systems, such as Windows NT obtaining the SMBIOS information. The BIOS supports an SMBIOS table interface for such operating systems. Using this support, an SMBIOS service-level application running on a non-Plug and Play operating system can obtain the SMBIOS information.

Before You Begin

Emissions Disclaimer

To ensure EMC compliance with your local regional rules and regulations, the final configuration of your end system product may require additional EMC compliance testing. For more information please contact your local Intel Representative.

See “Regulatory and Integration Information” on page 107 for product Safety and EMC regulatory compliance information. This is an FCC Class A device. Integration of it into a Class B chassis does not result in a Class B device.

Warnings and Cautions

These warnings and cautions apply throughout this chapter. Only a technically qualified person should configure the server board.

WARNING

Hazardous conditions, devices & cables: Hazardous electrical

conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.

Server Board Installation and Upgrades 39

CAUTIONS

System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system

AC power. To remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove any components.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) & ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis groundany unpainted metal surfaceon your server when handling parts.

ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface.

Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip, but not squeeze, with the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or break the stake pins on the board.

Installing and Removing Memory

The S875WP1-E server board contains four 184-pin DIMM sockets and supports up to four DDR SDRAM DIMMs. The minimum supported memory configuration is 128 MB, using one DIMM in DIMM socket 1A. The maximum configurable memory size is a 4 GB, using four 1 GB stacked unbuffered DDR266/333/400 ECC DIMMs.

The silkscreen on the board for the DIMMs displays DIMM1A, DIMM2A, DIMM1B, and DIMM2B, starting from the inside of the board. The DIMM1A is the socket closest to the processor socket. One, two, or four DIMMs may be used at a time.

For dual-channel interleave, a minimum of two DIMMs must be installed and the DIMMs must be populated as follows:

• DIMM1A and DIMM 1B: Populate these two sockets together first

• DIMM 2A and DIMM 2B: Populate these sockets in addition to DIMM 1A and DIMM 2A if

four DIMMs are to be used

When four DIMMs are installed, the system will use dual-channel interleave. For single-channel memory, a single DIMM can be installed in socket DIMM 1A. For single-channel memory using two DIMMs, populate the DIMM sockets in the following order:

• DIMM1A: Populate this socket if a single DIMM is to be installed

• DIMM2A: Populate this socket and the DIMM1A socket if two DIMMs are to be used

Connecting the IDE Cable

The Intel® boxed server board package includes a 40-contact, 80-conductor IDE cable. This cable is capable of connecting two drives to the server board. The cable supports Ultra ATA/100/66 and Ultra ATA/100 transfer protocols and is backward-compatible with drives using slower IDE transfer protocols.

✏

NOTE

ATA-66/100 cables are backward compatible with drives using slower IDE transfer protocols. If an ATA-66/100 disk drive and a disk drive using any other IDE transfer protocol are attached to the same cable, the maximum transfer rate between the drives may be reduced to that of the slowest drive.

Do not connect an ATA device as a slave on the same IDE cable as an ATAPI master device. For example, do not connect an ATA hard drive as a slave to an ATAPI CD-ROM drive.

For the cable to function correctly:

• Attach the end of the cable that has a single connector (A) to the server board as shown in Figure 18. The connector at this end of the cable is black and is labeled PRI IDE.

• Attach the end of the cable that has two closely spaced connectors (B) to the drive(s). The connectors at this end of the cable are gray and black and are labeled P2 and P3.

This chapter tells you how to update the BIOS by with the Intel Flash Memory Update Utility, and how to recover the BIOS if an update fails.

Updating the BIOS with the Intel® Flash Memory Update Utility

With the Intel Flash Memory Update Utility you can update the system BIOS from a floppy disk or other bootable media. The utility available from the Web provides a simple method for creating a bootable flash memory update floppy that will automatically update your BIOS.

• Prepare for the update

• Update the BIOS

• Recover the BIOS if an update fails

Obtaining the BIOS Update File

You can update to a new version of the BIOS or change the language section of the BIOS by using the BIOS update file. The BIOS update file is a compressed self-extracting archive that contains all the files you need to update the BIOS. The BIOS update file contains:

• New BIOS files

• BIOS recovery files

• Intel Flash Memory Update Utility

You can obtain the BIOS update file through your server supplier or from the Intel World Wide Web site:

http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/

NOTE

✏

Review the instructions distributed with the update utility before attempting a BIOS update.

Configuration Software and Utilities 63

Recording the Current BIOS Settings

1. Boot the server and press <F2> when you see the message:

Press <F2> Key if you want to run SETUP

✏

NOTE

Do not skip step 2. You will need these settings to configure your server at the end of the upgrade procedure.

2. Write down the current settings in the BIOS Setup program.

Creating Bootable Media

You can create bootable media with a:

• CD writer

• Normal diskette drive or an LS-120 diskette drive

Creating a Bootable CD

The instructions below assume a bootable diskette is used. When using a CD writer to use a CD, follow the instructions provided with your CD writer to make a bootable CD using floppy emulation and bootable files.

Creating a Bootable Diskette

✏

NOTE

If your drive A is an LS-120 diskette drive, you must use a 1.44 MB diskette as the bootable BIOS update diskette. The server is unable to recover a BIOS from an LS-120 diskette.

To create a bootable diskette using a DOS system:

• Place an unformatted diskette in the diskette drive and format the diskette using the /s option.

Example: Alternatively, place a formatted diskette in the diskette drive and use the sys command.

•

Example:

format a: /s

sys a:

To create a bootable diskette using a non-DOS system:

1. Obtain the BIOS update file through your server supplier or from the Intel World Wide Web site: http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/

2. Copy the BIOS update file to a temporary directory on your hard disk.

3. Change to the temporary directory.

4. To extract the files, double click on the BIOS update file, for example, EABIOSxx.EXE.

5. One of the extracted files is MK_BOOTZ.EXE. Double click on this file to extract the README.TXT file.

6. Follow the directions in the README.TXT file.

64 Intel Server Board S875WP1-E Product Guide

Creating a BIOS Update Media

1. Obtain the BIOS update file through your server supplier or from the Intel World Wide Web site:

http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/

2. Copy the BIOS update file to a temporary directory on your hard disk.

3. From the C:\ prompt, change to the temporary directory.

4. To extract the file, type the name of the BIOS upgrade file, for example, EABIOSxx.

5. Press <Enter>. The extracted file contains the following files:

• LICENSE.TXT

• BIOINSTR.TXT

• BIOS.EXE

• MK_BOOTZ.EXE

6. Read the LICENSE.TXT file, which contains the software license agreement, and the BIOINSTR.TXT file, which contains the instructions for the BIOS update.

7. Insert the bootable diskette into drive A.

8. Extract the BIOS.EXE file to the diskette. From the directory that contains the BIOS.EXE file type: BIOS A:

9. Press <Enter>.

10. The diskette now holds the new BIOS files, the Intel Flash Update Utility, and the recovery files.

Configuration Software and Utilities 65

Updating the BIOS

CAUTION

The AUTOEXEC.BAT file provided with the update files updates the BIOS in two parts: first updating the boot block and displaying the

completed successfully

message and second, updating the BIOS core. You will be asked to reboot the system when the update process is complete. Do not interrupt the process or the system may not be capable of rebooting.

1. Boot the server with the bootable BIOS upgrade diskette in drive A. During system boot, the AUTOEXEC.BAT file provided with the update files will automatically run the BIOS update process.

The AUTOEXEC.BAT file updates the BIOS in two parts: first updating the boot block and displaying the

Operation completed successfully message and then updating the BIOS

core.

2. When the update process is complete, the monitor will display a message telling you to remove the diskette and to reboot the system.

3. As the server boots, check the BIOS identifier (version number) to make sure the upgrade was successful. If a logo appears, press <Esc> to view the POST messages.

4. Enter BIOS Setup program by pressing <F2> when you see the message:

Press <F2> to Run SETUP

5. For proper operation, load the BIOS Setup program defaults. To load the defaults, press <F9>.

6. To accept the defaults, press <Enter>.

7. In Setup, enter the settings you wrote down before beginning the BIOS upgrade.

8. To save the settings, press <F10>.

9. To accept the settings, press <Enter>.

10. Turn off the server and reboot.

66 Intel Server Board S875WP1-E Product Guide

Recovering the BIOS

It is unlikely that anything will interrupt the BIOS update, however, if an interruption occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. The following steps explain how to recover the BIOS if an update fails. The following procedure uses recovery mode for the Setup program. See page 58 for more information on Setup modes.

NOTE

✏

Because of the small amount of code available in the boot block area, there is no video support. You will not see anything on the screen during this procedure. Monitor the procedure by listening to the speaker and looking at the diskette drive LED.

1. Turn off the server, disconnect the server’s power cord, and disconnect all external peripherals.

2. Remove the server cover and locate the configuration jumper block (J8J2) (see Figure 22).

3. Remove the jumper from all pins as shown below to set recovery mode for Setup.

4. Insert the bootable BIOS update diskette into diskette drive A.

5. Replace the server cover, connect the power cord, turn on the server, and allow it to boot. The recovery process will take a few minutes. Listen to the speaker and watch for drive A activity.

• Upon applying power, drive A will begin to show activity. In about a minute, two beeps are

heard and drive A activity ceases (temporarily) indicating the successful recovery of the BIOS core. Drive A activity will begin again followed by two more beeps indicating the successful recovery of the boot block. This sequence of events indicates that successful BIOS recovery has taken place.

• A series of continuous beeps indicates that BIOS recovery has failed.

6. If recovery fails, return to step 1 and repeat the recovery process.

7. If recovery is successful, turn off the server, disconnect the power cord, and remove the server cover.

8. On the jumper block (J8J2), reinstall the jumper back on pins 1-2 as shown below to set normal mode for Setup.

9. Leave the update diskette in drive A, replace the server cover, and connect the server’s power cord.

10. Turn on the server and continue with the BIOS update (see page 66).

Configuration Software and Utilities 67

Using the Setup Program

You can use the BIOS Setup program to change the configuration information and boot sequence for the server. This chapter tells you how to access the BIOS Setup program and lists Setup features, options, and default settings.

NOTE

✏

For reference purposes, you should write down the current Setup settings.

BIOS Setup Program Modes

When you make changes to the settings, update this record.

The BIOS Setup program has three modes of operation:

• Normal mode for normal operations

• Configure mode for clearing passwords (see Chapter 2 for instructions)

• Recovery mode for BIOS recovery

The BIOS Setup Program Operating mode is controlled by the setting of the configuration jumper block. The jumper is set to normal mode at the factory. The Maintenance menu is not available when Setup is used with the jumper in normal mode. The Maintenance menu is available only when the BIOS configuration jumper covers pins two and three.

The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the server. The BIOS Setup program is accessed by pressing the <F2> key after the Power-On Self-Test (POST) memory test begins and before the operating system boot begins. The menu bar is shown below.

4 Solving BIOS Problems

The board reports POST errors in two ways:

• By sounding a beep code

• By displaying an error message on the monitor

BIOS Beep Codes

The BIOS beep codes are listed in Table 42. The BIOS also issues a beep code (one long tone followed by two short tones) during POST if the video configuration fails, or if an external ROM module does not properly checksum to zero.

Table 42. Beep Codes

Number of Beeps Description

1 Refresh failure 2 Parity cannot be reset 3 First 64 Kb memory failure 4 Timer not operational 5 Processor failure (Reserved; not used) 6 8042 GateA20 cannot be toggled (memory failure or not present) 7 Exception interrupt error 8 Display memory R/W error 9 (Reserved; not used) 10 CMOS Shutdown register test error 11 Invalid BIOS (such as, POST module not found)
