BIOS Description
Utility Support:
AWDFLASH.EXE
This is a flash memory write/read utility used for the purpose of upgrading your BIOS
when necessary. Before doing so, please note:
# We strongly recommend you only upgrade BIOS when encounter problems.
# Before upgrading your BIOS, review the description below to avoid making
mistakes, destroying the BIOS and resulting in a non-working system.
When you encounter problems, for example, you find your system does not support the
latest CPU released after our current mainboard, you may therefore upgrade the BIOS,
please dont forget to set JAV as open and disable the Flash Write Protect item in
AWARD BIOS CMOS Setup first .
Follow the steps exactly for a successful upgrade.
1. Create a bootable system floppy diskette by typing Format A:/s from the DOS
prompt under DOS6.xx or Windows 9x environment.
2. Copy AWDFLASH.EXE(version>=7.95) from the directory \Utility located on QDI
Driver CD to your new bootable diskette.
3. Download the updated BIOS file from the Website (http://www.qdigrp.com). Please
be sure to download the suitable BIOS file for your motherboard.
4. Uncompress the file download, copy the BIOS file (xx.bin) to the bootable
diskette, and note the checksum of this BIOS which is located in readme file.
5. Reboot the system from the bootable diskette created.
6. Then run the AWDFLASH utility at the A:\ prompt as shown below:
A:\AWDFLASH xxxx.bin
Follow the instruction through the process. Dont turn off power or reset the
system until the BIOS upgrade has been completed.
If you require more detailed information concerning AWDFLASH Utility, for example, the
different usage of parameters, please type A:\>AWDFLASH /?

Manual for KD7E/333 series
Page 28
Award BIOS Description
The Award BIOS supports 3 HDD modes: NORMAL, LBA and LARGE.
NORMAL
Generic access mode in which neither the BIOS nor the IDE controller will make any transformation during accessing. The maximum number of cylinders, heads and sectors for
NORMAL mode are 1024,16 and 63.
If the user sets his HDD to NORMAL mode, the maximum accessible HDD size will be 528
megabytes even though its physical size may be greater than that.
LBA (Logical Block Addressing) mode
A new HDD accessing method to overcome the 528 Megabyte bottleneck. The number of
cylinders, heads and 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 described by
sector, head and cylinder number into its own physical address inside the HDD.
LARGE mode
Some IDE HDDs contain more than 1024 cylinder without LBA support (in some cases,
users do not want LBA). The Award BIOS provides another alternative to support these
kinds of HDD.
BIOS tricks DOS (or other OS) into divising the number of cylinders is less than 1024 by dividing
it by 2. At the same time, the number of heads is multiplied by 2. A reverse transformation
process will be made inside INT13h in order to access the right HDD address.
If using Auto detect, the BIOS will automatically detect the IDE hard disk mode and set it as
one of the three modes.
Remark
To support LBA or LARGE mode of HDDs, there must be some softwares involved which
are located in Award HDD Service Routine(INT13h).It may fail to access a HDD with LBA
(LARGE) mode selected if you are running under an Operating System which replaces the
whole INT 13h.
