2-3. HOW TO SET THE JUMPERS

You can configure your board by setting jumpers. Jumper is consists of two
or three metal pins with a plastic base mounted on the card, and by using a
small plastic "cap", Also known as the jumper cap (with a metal contact
inside), you are able to connect the pins. So you can set-up your hardware
configuration by "open" or "close" pins.

The jumper can be combined into sets that called jumper blocks. When the
jumpers are all in the block, you have to put them together to set up the
hardware configuration. The figure below shows how this looks like.

JUMPERS AND CAPS

If a jumper has three pins (for examples, labelled PIN1, PIN2, and PIN3),
You can connect PIN1 & PIN2 to create one setting and shorting. You can
either connect PIN2 & PIN3 to create another setting. The same jumper
diagrams are applied all through this manual. The figure below shows what
the manual diagrams look and what they represent.

3-6. WATCHDOG TIMER CONFIGURATION

This board has watchdog timer function for monitoring whether the system
is still work or not after a period of time. The user can select watchdog
timer to system reset or NMI (Non Maskable interrupt) depending on the
jumper set in chapter 2. This is defined at I/O port 443H. When you want to
enable the watchdog timer, please write I/O port 443H, and then the system
will either reset itself or perform the NMI function. Likewise, when you
want to disable the function, write I/O port 441H, the system will run the
command to stop the Watchdog function.

In Prox-1710 watchdog function, you must write your program so when it
writes I/O port address 443 for enable watchdog and write I/O port address
441 for disable watchdog. The timer's intervals have a tolerance of 25% so
you should program an instruction that will refresh the timer about every
second.

The following program shows you how to program the watch timer in your
program.

Watchdog enable program:

MOV AX, 000FH (choose the values you need; start from 0)

MOV DX, 443H

OUT DX, AX

Watchdog disable program:

MOV AX, 000FH (this value can be ignored)
MOV DX, 441H
OUT DX, AX

The Watchdog Timer control table is as follows:

Chapter 4 Award BIOS Setup

4-1. INTRODUCTION

This chapter will show you the function of the BIOS in managing the features
of your system. The Prox-1710 Pentium® 4 Full-sized CPU Card is equipped
with the BIOS for system chipset from Award Software Inc. This page briefly
explains the function of the BIOS in managing the special features of your
system. The following pages describe how to use the BIOS for system chipset
Setup menu.

Your application programs (such as word processing, spreadsheets, and
games) rely on an operating system such as DOS or OS/2 to manage such
things as keyboard, monitor, disk drives, and memory.

The operating system relies on the BIOS (Basic Input and Output system), a
program stored on a ROM (Read-only Memory) chip, to initialize and
configure your computer's hardware. As the interface between the hardware
and the operating system, the BIOS enables you to make basic changes to
your system's hardware without having to write a new operating system.

The following diagram illustrates the interlocking relationships between the
system hardware, BIOS, operating system, and application program:

Chipset Features Setup Screen

This parameter allows you to configure the system based on the specific
features of the installed chipset. The chipset manages bus speed and
access to system memory resources, such as DRAM and the external cache.

It also coordinates communications between conventional ISA bus and the
PCI bus. It must be stated that these items should never need to be altered.
The default settings have been chosen because they provide the best opera­ting conditions for the system. The only time you might consider making
any changes would be if you discovered that data was being lost while using
your system.

DRAM TIMING BY SELECTABLE:

This allows you to select the DRAM timing.

CAS LATENCY TIME:

When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS
latency depends on the DRAM timing.

ACTIVE TO PRECHARGE DELAY:

This item controls the number of DRAM clocks for TRAS.

DRAM RAS# TO CAS# DELAY:

This field let’s you insert a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe
signals, used when DRAM is written to, read from, or refreshed. Fast gives
faster performance; and Slow gives more stable performance. This field
applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system.

DRAM RAS# PRECHARGE:

If an insufficient number of cycles is allowed for the RAS to accumulate its
charge before DRAM refresh, the refresh may be incomplete and the DRAM
may fail to retain data. Fast gives faster performance; and Slow gives more
stable performance. This field applies only when synchronous DRAM is
installed in the system.

DRAM DATA INTEGRITY MODE:

This item allows you to enable/disable the DRAM ECC function which will
recover the single bit errors when user plug-in ECC DRAM.

SYSTEM BIOS CACHEABLE:

Selecting Enabled allows caching of the system BIOS ROM at F0000h­FFFFFh, resulting in better system performance. However, if any program
writes to this memory area, a system error may result.

VIDEO BIOS CACHEABLE:

Select Enabled allows caching of the video BIOS, resulting in better system
performance. However, if any program writes to this memory area, a system
error may result.

S MANUAL

VIDEO RAM CACHEABLE:

Select Enabled allows caching of the A/B segment, resulting in better system
performance.

MEMORY HOLE AT 15M-16M:

You can reserve this area of system memory for ISA adapter ROM. When
this area is reserved, it cannot be cached. The user information of peripherals
that need to use this area of system memory usually discusses their memory
requirements.

DELAYED TRANSACTION:

The chipset has an embedded 32-bit posted write buffer to support delay
transactions cycles. Select Enabled to support compliance with PCI
specification version 2.1.

DELAY PRIOR TO THERMAL:

This item allows you to select the delayed time to enable P4 CPU Thermal
function. When enter into NT4.0, this function must be active to prevent
from the system hanged.

AGP APERTURE SIZE:

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.

IO CHANNEL CHECK NMI:

This field allows you to enable or disable IO channel check NMI. Before
selecting this function, the user should check first that NMI function is
enabled as described in chapter 2 (Reset/NMI/Clear Watchdog Selection).

Appendix C Trouble Shooting

TROUBLE SHOOTING FOR ERROR MESSAGES

The following information gives you the error messages and the trouble­shooting. Please adjust your systems according to the messages below. And
make sure all the components and connectors are in proper position and
firmly attached. If the errors still encountered, please contact with your
distributor for maintenance.

POST BEEP :

Currently there are two kinds of beep codes in BIOS. One code indicates
that a video error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video
screen to display any additional information. This beep code consists of a
single long beep followed by two short beeps. The other code indicates that
your DRAM error has occurred. This beep code consists of a single long
beep repeatedly.

CMOS BATTERY HAS FAILED :

This message informs you that the CMOS battery is no longer functional.
The user should replace it.

CMOS CHECKSUM ERROR :

This message informs you that the CMOS is incorrect. This error may
have caused by a weak battery. Check the battery and replace if necessary.

DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER :

No boot device was found. This could mean that either a boot drive was
not detected or the drive does not contain proper system boot files. Insert a
system disk into Drive A: and press < Enter >. If you assumed the system
would boot from the hard drive, make sure the controller is inserted
correctly and all cables are properly attached. Also make sure the disk is
formatted as a boot device. Then reboot the system.

DISKETTE DRIVES OR TYPES MISMATCH ERROR - RUN SETUP :

Type of diskette drive installed in the system is different from the CMOS
definition. Run Setup to reconfigure the drive type correctly.

S MANUAL

Appendix C Trouble Shooting

DISPLAY SWITCH IS SET INCORRECTLY :

Display switch on the motherboard can be set to either monochrome or
color. This indicates the switch is set to a different setting than indicated in
Setup. Determine which setting is correct, and then either turn off the system
and change the jumper, or enter Setup and change the VIDEO selection.

DISPLAY TYPE HAS CHANGED SINCE LAST BOOT :

Since last powering off the system, the display adapter has been changed.
You must configure the system for the new display type.

EISA CONFIGURATION CHECKSUM ERROR
PLEASE RUN EISA CONFIGURATION UTILITY :

The EISA non-violatile RAM checksum is incorrect or cannot correctly read
the EISA slot. This can indicate either the EISA non-volatile memory has
become corrupt or the slot has been configured incorrectly. Also be sure the
card is installed firmly in the slot.

EISA CONFIGURATION IS NOT COMPLETE
PLEASE RUN EISA CONFIGURATION UTILITY :

The slot configure information stored in the EISA non-volatile memory is
incomplete.
Note: When either of these errors appear, the system will boot in ISA mode,
which allows you to run the EISA Configuration Utility.

ERROR ENCOUNTERED INITIALIZING HARD DRIVE :

Hard drive cannot be initialized. Be sure the adapter is installed correctly
and all cables are correctly and firmly attached. Also be sure the correct
hard drive type is selected in Setup.

ERROR INITIALIZING HARD DISK CONTROLLER :

Cannot initialize controller. Make sure the cord is correctly and firmly
installed in the bus. Be sure the correct hard drive is selected in Setup. Also
check to see if any jumper needs to be set correctly on the hard drive.

Appendix C Trouble Shooting

FLOPPY DISK CNTRLR ERROR OR NO CNTRLR PRESENT :

Cannot find or initialize the floppy drive controller. Make sure the controller
is installed correctly and firmly. If there are no floppy drives installed, be
sure the Diskette Drive selection in Setup is set to NONE.

INVALID EISA CONFIGURATION
PLEASE RUN EISA CONFIGURATION UTILITY

:

The non-volatile memory containing EISA configuration information was
programmed incorrectly or has become corrupt. Re-run EISA configuration
utility to correctly program the memory.
Note: When this error appears, the system will boot in ISA mode, which
allows you to run the EISA Configuration Utility.

KEYBOARD ERROR OR NO KEYBOARD PRESENT

:

Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure that the keyboard is properly
attached and no keys being pressed during the boot.
If you are purposely configuring the system without a keyboard, set the error
halt condition in Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT KEYBOARD. This will
cause the BIOS to ignore the missing keyboard and continue the boot.

MEMORY ADDRESS ERROR AT ... :

Indicates a memory address error at a specific location. You can use this
location along with the memory map for your system to find and replace the
bad memory chips.

MEMORY PARITY ERROR AT ... :

Indicates a memory parity error at a specific location. You can use this
location along with the memory map for your system to find and replace the
bad memory chips.

MEMORY SIZE HAS CHANGED SINCE LAST BOOT :

Memory has been added or removed since the last boot. In EISA mode use
Configuration Utility to reconfigure the memory configuration. In ISA mode
enter Setup and enter the new memory size in the memory fields.

Appendix C Trouble Shooting

MEMORY VERIFY ERROR AT ... :

Indicates an error verifying a value already written to memory. Use the
location along with your system's memory map to locate the bad chip.

OFFENDING ADDRESS NOT FOUND :

This message is used in conjunction with the I/O CHANNEL CHECK and
RAM PARITY ERROR messages when the segment that has caused the
problem cannot be isolated.

OFFENDING SEGMENT :

This message is used in conjunction with the I/O CHANNEL CHECK and
RAM PARITY ERROR messages when the segment that has caused the
problem has been isolated.

PRESS A KEY TO REBOOT :

This will be displayed at the bottom screen when an error occurs that
requires you to reboot. Press any key and the system will reboot.

PRESS F1 TO DISABLE NMI, F2 TO REBOOT :

When BIOS detects a Non-maskable Interrupt condition during boot, this
will allow you to disable the NMI and continue to boot, or you can reboot
the system with the NMI enabled.

RAM PARITY ERROR – CHECKING FOR SEGMENT :

Indicates a parity error in Random Access Memory.

Should be Empty But EISA Board Found
PLEASE RUN EISA CONFIGURATION UTILITY :

A valid board ID was found in a slot that was configured as having no board
ID.
Note: When this error appears, the system will boot in ISA mode, which
allows you to run the EISA Configuration Utility.

Should Have EISA Board But Not Found
PLEASE RUN EISA CONFIGURATION UTILITY :

The board installed is not responding to the ID request, or no board ID has
been found in the indicated slot.
Note: When this error appears, the system will boot in ISA mode, which
allows you to run the EISA Configuration Utility.
