Safety Environmental Instruction
z Avoid the dusty, humidity and temperature extremes. Do not place the product in any
area where it may become wet.
z 0 to 60 centigrade is the suitable temperature. (The figure comes from the request of the
main chipset)
z Generally speaking, dramatic changes in temperature may lead to contact malfunction
and crackles due to constant thermal expansion and contraction from the welding spots’
that connect components and PCB. Computer should go through an adaptive phase
before it boots when it is moved from a cold environment to a warmer one to avoid
condensation phenomenon. These water drops attached on PCB or the surface of the
components can bring about phenomena as minor as computer instability resulted from
corrosion and oxidation from components and PCB or as major as short circuit that can
burn the components. Suggest starting the computer until the temperature goes up.
z The increasing temperature of the capacitor may decrease the life of computer. Using the
close case may decrease the life of other device because the higher temperature in the
inner of the case.
z Attention to the heat sink when you over-clocking. The higher temperature may decrease
the life of the device and burned the capacitor.

Introducing BIOS
Attention:
The BIOS options shown in this manual is for reference use only. We
reserve the right to update the BIOS version without advance notice.
The BIOS is a program located on a Flash Memory on the motherboard. This program is a
bridge between motherboard and operating system. When you start the computer, the BIOS
program will gain control. The BIOS first operates an auto-d i agnostic test called POST (power
on self test) for all the necessary hardware, it detects the entire hardware device and
configures the parameters of the hardware synchronization. Only when these tasks are
completed done it gives up control of the computer to operating system (OS). Since the
BIOS is the only channel for hardware and software to communicate, it is the key factor for
system stability, and in ensuring that your system performance as its best.
In the BIOS Setup main menu of Figure 3-1, you can see several options. We will explain
these options step by step in the following pages of this chapter, but let us first see a short
description of the function keys you may use here:
• Press <Esc> to quit the BIOS Setup.
• Press ↑↓←→ (up, down, left, right) to choose, in the main menu, the option you want
to confirm or to modify.
• Press <F10> when you have completed the setup of BIOS parameters to save these
parameters and to exit the BIOS Setup menu.
• Press Page Up/Page Down or +/– keys when you want to modify the BIOS parameters
for the active option.
21
3-1 Entering Setup
Power on the computer and by pressing <Del> immediately allows you to enter Setup.
If the message disappears before your respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the
system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the “RESET” button on the system
case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. If
you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an error message
will be displayed and you will again be asked to
Press <F1> to continue, or <Del> to enter Setup
3-2 Getting Help
Main Menu
The on-line description of the highlighted setup function is displayed at the bottom of the
screen.
Status Page Setup Menu/Option Page Setup Menu
Press F1 to pop up a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and the
possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window, press <Esc>.
3-3 The Main Menu
Once you enter Award® BIOS CMOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu (Figure 3-1) will appear
on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from fourteen setup functions and two
exit choices. Use arrow keys to select among the items and press <Enter> to accept or enter
the sub-menu.

CPU Smart FAN Configurations
CPU Full-Speed Temp
This item allows you setting the FAN works in full speed when the temperature over the value
30
which out set. If the temperature below the value but over the Idle Temperature, the FAN
will works over 60% of full speed, and the higher temperature will gain higher FAN speed,
after over the temperature which this item setting, the FAN works in full speed.
CPU Idle Temp
This item allows you setting the FAN works in 60% of full speed, when the temperature
lower than the temperature which you setting.

System BIOS Cacheable
Selecting Enabled allows caching of the system BIOS ROM at F0000h-FFFFFh, resulting in
better system performance. However, if any pr ogram writes to this memory area, a system
error may result. The settings are: Enabled and Disabled.

ACPI Function
This item allows you to Enabled/Disabled the Advanced Configuration and Power
Management (ACPI). The settings are Enabled and Disabled.
Video Off Method
This determines the manner in which the monitor is blanked.
Initial display power management signaling.
DPMS (default)
Blank Screen
V/H SYNC+Blank
This option only writes blanks to the video buffer.
This selection will cause the system to turn off the vertical and
horizontal synchronization ports and write blanks to the video buffer.
MODEM Use IRQ
If you want an incoming call on a modem to automatically resume the system from a
power-saving mode, use this item to specify the interrupt request line (IRQ) that is used by
32
the modem. You might have to connect the fax/modem to the motherboard Wake On Modem
connector for this feature to work.
Soft-Off by PWRBTN
Under ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power management Interface) you can create a
software power down. In a software power down, the system can be resumed by Wake up
Alarms. This item lets you install a software power down that is controlled by the power
Button on your system. If the item is set to Instant-Off, then the power button causes a
software power down. If the item is set to Delay 4 Sec, then you have to hold the power
button down for four seconds to cause a software power down.
