BIOS Introduction
This Chapter discusses Award™ Setup program built into the M2
BIOS. The Setup program allows users to modify the basic system
configuration. This special information is then stored in
battery-backed RAM so that it retains the Setup information when
the power is turned off.
The AwardBIOS™ installed in M2 SBC is a custom version of an
industry standard BIOS. This means that it supports Int el PentiumIV
in a standard IBM-AT compatible input/output system. The BIOS
provides critical low-level support for standard devices such as disk
drives and serial and parallel ports.
It also adds non-standard, features such as virus and password
protection as well as special support for detailed fine-tuning of the
chipset controlling the entire system.
The rest of this chapter is intended to guide you through th e proc ess
of configuring your system using Setup.
Starting Setup
The AwardBIOS™ is immedia tely activated when you first power
on the computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained
in the CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and
configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating
system on one of the disks an d then launch and turn control over to
the operating system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in
one of two ways:
1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on,
or
by pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears
2.
briefly at the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On
Self-Test).
Press DEL to enter SETUP.
If the message disappears before you respond a nd 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, DEL TO ENTER SETUP
Using Setup
In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter>
to select, use the PageUp and PageDown keys to change entries,
press <F1> for help and press <Esc> to quit. The following table
provides more detail about how to navigate in the Setup program
using the keyboard.

To display a sub menu
Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the sub menu you want.
Then press <Enter>. A “” pointer marks all sub menus.
Getting Help
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> or the F1 key again.
In Case of Problems
If, after making and saving system changes with Setup, you discover
that your computer no longer is able to boot, the AwardBIOS™
supports an override to the CMOS settings which resets your system
to its defaults.
The best advice is to only alter settings that you thoroughly
understand. To this end, we strongly recommend that you avoid
making any changes to the chipset defaults. These defaults have
been carefully chosen by both Award and M2 manufacturer to
provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability. Even a
seemingly small change to the chipset setup has the potential for
causing you to use the override.

Menu Level
This section allows you to configure the sy stem based o n the specific
features of the installed chipset. This chip set manages bus speeds and
access to system memory resources, such as DRAM and the external
cache. It also coordinates communications between the 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 your 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 Settings
The first chipset settings deal with CPU access to dynamic random
access memory (DRAM). The default timings have been carefully
chosen and should only be altered if data is being lost. Such a
scenario might well occur if your system had mixed speed DRAM
chips installed so that greater delays may be required to preserve the
integrity of the data held in the slower memory chips.

DRAM Timing Selectable
This item allows you to select the DRAM timing determined by the
timing information stored in SPD or set by the User manually. The
default is By SPD. When this field is set as By SPD, the DRAM
Timing items below will become read-only.
The choice: By SPD, Manual.
CAS Latency Time
When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles
of CAS latency depends on the DRAM tim ing. Do not reset th is field
from the default value specified by the system designer.
The choice: 3, 2.5, 2, 1.5.
Active to Precharge Delay
This item allows you to set the Active to Precharge Delay of DRAM
timing. Do not reset this fi eld from th e d efault v alu e sp ecified by the
system designer.
The choice: 6.
DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay
When DRAM is refreshed, both rows and columns are addressed
separately. This field allows you to determine the timing of transition
from Row Address Strobe (RAS) to Column Address Strobe (CAS).
The choice: 3, 2.
DRAM RAS# Precharge
The precharge time is the number of cycles it takes for the RAS to
accumulate its charge before DRAM refresh. If insufficient time is
allowed, refresh may be incomplete and the DRAM may fail to retain
data.
