The VT82C580VPX mainboard combines the advanced
capabilities of the VIA Apollo VPX chipset with a high
performance concurrent PCI local bus architecture to provide
the ideal platform for unleashing the unsurpassed speed and
power of the Intel Pentium
AMD K5/K6 processors, and can be easily upgraded for 321
pin ZIF socket.
The processor's advanced performance is complemented by a
second level write back PB-SRAM up to 1024KB and main
memory up to 512MB RAM. The main memory is initialed
using the board's two 72-pin SIMM sockets and two 168-pin
DIMM sockets that accept either the new high performance
EDO, BEDO, Fast Page mode DRAM, or synchronous
DRAM(SDRAM).
processor, Cyrix 6x86 and
The VT82C580VPX integrates a full set of I/O features on
board, including two 16550 UART compatible serial ports, one
EPP/ECP capable port, one floppy disk controller, and one
infra-red comm unication controller. On chip built in E nhanced
IDE controller provides convenient, high speed PCI bus Master
connection capable of four IDE devices, including Hard disk
and CD-ROM.

The
utility is a very useful tool
especially when you do not know which kind of hard disk type
you are using. You can use this utility to detect the corre
disk type installed in the system automatically or you can se
hard disk type to auto in the standard CMOS setup. You don't
need the
"IDE HDD Aauto Detection"
utility. The BIOS will
auto-detect the hard disk size and model on display during
post.
HDD modes :
Th e A ward ® BIOS suppo rts 3 HDD modes: NORMA L, LBA
& LARGE.
Normal mode
Generic access mode in which neither the BIOS nor the IDE
controller will make any transformations during accessing.
The maximum numbe r of cylinde rs, head & se ctors fo r normal
mode are
1024, 16 & 63.
No. Cylinder (1024)
X No. Head (16)

Page 43
5V-1B
n
X No. Sector (63)
X No. Per Sector (512)
528 MB
If user set this HDD to normal mo de, the maximum accessible
HDD size will be 528 MB even though its physical size may be
greater than that!
LBA (Logic al Bloc k Addre ssing ) Mo de
A new HDD accessing method to overcome the 528 MB
bottleneck. The number of cylinders, heads & sectors shown in
setup may not be the number physically contained in the HDD.
During HDD accessing, the ide controller will transform the
logical address descr ibed by sector, head & cylinder into its ow
physical address inside the HDD.
The maximum HDD size supported by LBA mode is 8.4 GB
which is obtained by the following formula:
No. Cylinder
X No. Head
X No. Sector
X No. Bytes Per Sector (512)
8.4 GB
Large Mode
Extended HDD access mode supported by Award® software.
Some IDE HDDs contain more than 1024 cylinder without LBA
support (in some cases, user do not want LBA). The Award®
BIOS provides another alternative to support these kinds of
large mode:
Cyls. Head Sector Mode
1120 16 59 NORMAL
560 32 59 LARGE
BIOS tricks DOS (or other OS) that the nu mber of cyli nders is
less than 1024 by dividing it by 2. At the same time, the
number of heads is multiplied by 2. A reverse transformation

To suppor t LBA or large mode o f HDDs, there must be some
softwares involved. All these softwares are located in the
