INTRODUCTION

The MS-6339 ATX TH1 mainboard is a high-performance computer mainboard based on Intel® 82850 chipset. The MS-6339 is optimized to support the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor for high-end business/personal desktop markets.

The Intel® Tehama chipset supports 64B cache line size and a 32-bit host addressing, allowing the processor to access the entire 4GB of the chipsets memory address space. It also provides 4x AGP data transfers and 2x/4x AGP Fast Writes capability. Including a 3.2GBs memory bus bandwidth and 3.2GBs system bus bandwidth.

The Intel® Tehama chipset features a dual channel Direct RDRAM memory operating in lock-step using RSL technology. It is a highly-flexible chipset which is designed to extend the basic graphics/multimedia PC platform up to the mainstream performance desktop platform.

The Intel® 82801BA (ICH2) chipset is a highly integrated multifunctional I/O Controller Hub that provides the interface to the PCI Bus and integrates many of the functions needed in todays PC platforms. It communicates with the host controller over a dedicated hub interface and provides added flexibility in designing cost-effective system solutions.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

Central Processing Unit: CPU

The mainboard operates with Intel® Pentium® 4 processor. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called Socket 423 for easy CPU installation. The CPU should always have a Heat Sink and a cooling fan attached to prevent overheating.

3. Press the lever down to complete the installation.

2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for the white dot or cut edge in the CPU. Match Pin 1 with the white dot/cut edge. Then, insert the CPU. It should insert easily.

• CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure

The mainboard CPU Bus Frequency can be set through BIOS setup.

If CPU Clock = 100MHz

then CPU core speed = Host Clock x Core/Bus ratio

= 1.4GHz

• Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN/PSFAN/SYSFAN

These connectors support system cooling fan with + 12V. It supports three pin head connector. When connecting the wire to the connector, always take note that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V, the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If your mainboard has System Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of this function.

For fans with fan speed sensor, every rotation of the fan will send out 2 pulses. System Hardware Monitor will count and report the fan rotation speed.

Note: Always consult vendor for proper CPU cooling fan.

IPCA Function

This item allows you to Enabled/Disabled the Advanced Configuration and Power Management (ACPI). The settings are Enabled and Disabled.

Sleep State

This option allows you to set which Sleep State will be used.

S1/POS - Power on Suspend.

The S1 sleeping state is a low wake-up latency sleeping state. In this state, no system context is lost (CPU or chipset) and hardware maintains all system context.

S3/STR - Suspend to RAM.

The S3 state is a low wake-up latency sleeping state where all system context is lost except the system memory . CPU,cache, and chipset context are lost in this state. Hardware maintains memory context and restores some CPU and L2 configuration context.

Sleep State LED

This option determines which state the Power LED will use. The settings are Blinking, Dual and Single. During Blinking, the power LED will blink when the system enters the suspend mode. When the mode is in Dual, the power LED will change its color . In Single mode, the power LED will always remain lit.

When set to Monitor, these options enabled event monitoring on the specified hardware interrupt request line. If set to Monitor and the computer is in a power saving state, AMI BIOS watches for activity on the specified IRQ line. The computer enters the full on power state if any activity occurs.

AMI BIOS reloads the Standby and Suspend time out timers if activity occurs on the specified IRQ line.

Power Button Function

During Suspend, if you push the switch once, the system goes into suspend mode and if you push it more than 4 seconds, the system will be turned off. During On/Off, the system will turn off once you push the switch.

Restore on AC/Power Loss

The settings are power on, power off or last state. During power on, after every AC power loss, the system will be turned on. During last status, after every AC power loss, whatever the system status, it will be the same when the AC power returns. During power off, after every AC power loss, the system will be turned off.

Note: If you have change the setting, you must let the system boot up until

it goes to the operating system. Then, power off the system. This function will work the next time you power on.

Wake Up On PME

This option enables the system to comply with PCI specification version 2.2. PCI card should be present to enable power on or resume from the PME signal.

Resume By Alarm

This function is for setting the Date, Hour, Minute, and Second for your computer to boot up. During Disabled, you cannot use this function. During Enabled, Choose the Date, Hour, Minute, and Second:

Alarm Date Select which day the system will boot up. Alarm Hour Select the hours for the system to boot up. Alarm Minute Select the minutes for the system to boot up. Alarm Second Select the seconds for the system to boot up.

Note: If you have change the setting, you must let the system boot up until

Description of the item on screen follows:

Clear ESCD

During Y es, this will clear ESCD data on every boot.

PCI VGA Palette Snoop

When this option is set to Enabled, multiple VGA devices operating on different buses can handle data from the CPU on each set of palette registers on every video device. Bit 5 of the command register in the PCI device configuration space is the VGA Palette Snoop bit (0 is disabled). For example, if there are two VGA devices in the computer (one PCI and ISA) and the Bit settings are:

Disabled-Data read and written by the CPU is only directed to

the PCI VGA device’ s palette registers.

Enabled - Data read and written by the CPU is directed to

both the PCI VGA device’ s palette registers and the ISA VGA device palette registers, permitting the palette registers of both devices to be identical.

This option must be set to Enabled if an ISA adapter card requires VGA palette snooping. The settings are Enabled or Disabled.

DMA Channel 0/1/3/5/6/7

These options specify the bus that the specified DMA channel is used. These options allow you to reserve DMAs for legacy ISA adapter cards.

These options determine if AMI® BIOS should remove a DMA from the available DMAs passed to devices that are configurable by the system BIOS. The available DMA pool is determined by reading the ESCD NVRAM. If more DMAs must be removed from the pool, the end user can use these options to reserve the DMA by assigning an ISA/EISA setting to it.

IRQ3/IRQ4/IRQ5/RQ7/IRQ9/IRQ10/IRQ1 1/IRQ14/IRQ15

These options specify the bus that the specified IRQ line is used on.

These options allow you to reserve IRQs for legacy ISA adapter cards.

These options determine if AMI® BIOS should remove an IRQ from the pool of available IRQs passed to devices that are configurable by the system BIOS. The available IRQ pool is determined by reading the ESCD NVRAM. If more IRQs must be removed from the pool, the end user can use these options to reserve the IRQ by assigning an ISA/EISA setting to it. Onboard I/O is configured by AMI® BIOS. All IRQs used by onboard I/O are configured as PCI/PnP . If all IRQs are set to ISA/EISA and IRQ14 and 15 are allocated to the onboard PCI IDE, IRQ9 will still be available for PCI and PnP devices, because at least one IRQ must be available for PCI and PnP devices. The settings are ISA/EISA or PCI/PnP . The Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings are IRQ3 through 7 are ISA/EISA. The Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings PCI/PnP.

T o operate the onboard parallel port as Standard Parallel Port only, choose “SPP.” To operate the onboard parallel port in the EPP modes simultaneously , choose “EPP.” By choosing “ECP”, the onboard parallel port will operate in ECP mode only . Choosing “ECP + EPP” will allow the onboard parallel port to support both the ECP and EPP modes simultaneously. The ECP mode has to use the DMA channel, so choose the onboard parallel port with the ECP feature. After selecting it, the following message will appear: “ECP Mode Use DMA” At this time, the user can choose between DMA channels 3 or 1. The onboard parallel port is EPP Spec. compliant, so after the user chooses the onboard parallel port with the EPP function, the following message will be displayed on the screen: “EPP Mode Select.” At this time either EPP 1.7 spec. or EPP 1.9 spec. can be chosen.
