CHAPTER 2

1. Please refer to your processor installation or other documentation attached to your CPU for more detailed installing instruction.

2. Installing a heat sink and cooling fan is necessary for proper heat dissipation from your CPU. Incorrect installation may result in overheating and damage of your CPU.

3. Before changing the setting of CPU Vcore from BIOS program, user SHOULD make sure of correct specification both of CPU CLOCK and RATIO. Incorrect setting may cause damage to your CPU.

HARDWARE SETUP

ATTENTION !!!

This chapter contains the following topics :

2-1 CPU INSTALLATION 2-2 MEMORY INSTALLATION 2-3 AGP PRO INSTALLATION 2-4 HDD/FDD INSTALLATION 2-5 SWITCH SETTING FOR CPU RATIO AND CLOCK 2-6 JUMPER SETTING FOR DEVICES ON BOARD 2-7 CONNECTORS CONFIGURATION 2-8 IRQ DESCRIPTION

Page 19

2-1 CPU INSTALLATION

WARNING !!!

• Make sure that +5V DCV and +3.3 DCV of your power supply are suitable for the processor.

• Any attempt to operate the AMD Athlon or Duron processor without a suitable cooling Fan will damage processor and other component.

Pull out the lever from the socket, and then raise the lever up to a

90-degree angle.

Take notice of the red circles

as shown here. While inserting the CPU into the socket, you can find out there is a definite pin orientation for CPU and socket.

Hardware Setup

SOCKET 370

Make sure that the CPU is

placed into the socket tightly. Then lower down the lever to complete the CPU installation.

2-1.1 CPU Frequency

• The CPU’s “CPU CLOCK RATIO” and “CPU HOST/PCI CLOCK” settings are automatically detected to be default value by BIOS in the “Frequency/ Voltage Control” section.

• We do not suggest and assume the responsibility for any action that changes the CPU default setting such as overclocking. Incorrect CLOCK RATIO and HOST/PCI CLOCK settings may cause damage to your CPU.

Page 20

65KIV/KIV2

2-2 MEMORY INSTALLATION

WARNING!!!

• Make sure to unplug your power supply before adding or removing memory modules or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your mainboard and expansion cards.

• Be careful when inserting or removing DIMM. Forcing a DIMM in or out of a socket improperly may damage the memory module or the socket. Some DIMMs which contain EDO or FPM DRAM are incompliant with the mainboard. The M/B supports 3.3V true SDRAM DIMMs only.

Installing DIMM

• Make sure you have the correct memory module type for your mainboard.

• Insert the module(s) as shown below, DIMMs have 168-pins and two notches that will be matched by the onboard DIMM socket. Memory modules are installed by inserting them straight into the slot until they “click” in the right place. They only fit in one direction, so do not force them in by a wrong direction.

168-Pin DIMM Notch Key Definitions(3.3V)

Removing DIMM

• Press down the holding clips on both sides of a DIMM socket and the module will be released from it.

2-3 ACCELERATED GRAPHICS PORT(AGP) PRO INSTALLATION

• The AGP Pro connector is an extension of the existing AGP connector and it is compatible with existing AGP cards.

AGP Accelerator

AGP

CAUTION!!

The AGP Pro slot comes with a warning label over the 20-pin bay. Do not remove this label and the safety tab underneath if you use an AGP card without a retention notch. Without the labels, AGP cards may be placed into the wrong place, which certainly will damage your card, slot, and mainboard. Remove the label ONLY if you will be using an AGP Pro card.

Page 22

65KIV/KIV2

2-4 HDD/FDD INSTALLATION

• To install HDD (Hard Disk Drive), you may connect the cable’s blue connector to the mainboard’s primary (IDE1) or secondary (IDE2) connector, and then connect the gray connector to your slave device and the black connector to your master device. If you install two hard disks, you must configure the second drive to Slave mode by setting its jumper accordingly. Please refer to your hard disk documentation for the jumper settings.

2-5.2 BUS CLOCK SELECT

• Over clocking is not recommended, your system may work unstable.

• SW1 DIP5~8 settings for FSB (Front Side Bus) Frequency Select is a redundancy device designed for professional CPU overclocking only. Since this mainboard is designed with CPU clock auto-detection function, you are recommended to use the SW1 DIP5~8 default setting for a stable system performance. In case of CPU overclocking to higher frequency, these exists high possibility of failure due to the high complexity of components adopted on board. On the other hand, selecting a lower frequency setting for a CPU with higher frequency (e.g. select 100MHz setting for a 133MHz CPU) will also cause system failure.

GND +12V SENSOR

These fan connectors support CPU/System chassis cooling fan with +12V. When connecting wire to FAN connectors, users should pay attention that the red wire is for the positive current and should be connected to pin +12V, and the black wire is Ground and should be connected to pin GND. If your mainboard has Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of this function. For fans with speed sensors, each rotation of the fan blades will send out 2 electric pulses, by which System Hardware Monitor will work out the fan rotation speed by counting the pulses.

NOTE 1: Always consult vendor for proper CPU cooling fan. NOTE 2: CPU FAN supports the FAN control. You can install PC Alert

utility. This will automatically control the CPU FAN speed according to the actual CPU temperature.

• Both ISA and PCI expansion cards may require IRQs. System IRQs are available to cards installed in the ISA expansion bus first, then any remaining IRQs are available to PCI cards. Currently, there are two types of ISA cards.

• The original ISA expansion card design, now referred to as “Legacy” ISA card, requires you to configure the card’s jumpers manually and then install it in any available slot on the ISA bus. To see a map of your used and free IRQs in Windows 98, the Control Panel in My Computer, contains a System icon, which gives you a Device Manager tab. Double-Clicking on a specific hardware device gives you a Resources tab which shows the Interrupt number and address. Double-Clicking Computers to see all the interrupts and addresses for your system. Make sure that no more than two devices use the same IRQ or your computer will result problems when those two devices are used at the same time.

CHAPTER 4

BIOS SETUP

THE BIOS

• BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. It is sometimes called ROM BIOS because it is stored in a Read-Only Memory(ROM) chip on the mainboard. BIOS is the first program to run when you turn on your computer.

• BIOS performs the following functions:

1. Initializing and testing hardware in your computer (a process called “POST”, for Power On Self Test).

2. Loading and running your operating system.

3. Helping your operating system and application programs to manage your PC hardware by means of a set of routines called BIOS Run-Time Service.

This chapter contains the following topics :

4-1 WHAT IS BIOS SETUP 4-2 HOW TO RUN BIOS SETUP 4-3 WHAT IS CMOS 4-4 WHAT IS POST 4-5 BIOS UPGRADE 4-6 BIOS SETUP

Page 47

BIOS Setup

4-1 WHAT IS BIOS SETUP

• BIOS setup is an interactive BIOS program that you need to run when:

1. Changing the hardware of your system. (For example: installing a new Hard Disk etc.)

2. Modifying the behavior of your computer. (For example: changing the system time or date, or turning special features on or off etc.)

3. Enhancing your computer’s behavior. (For example: speeding up performance by turning on shadowing or cache)

4-2 HOW TO RUN BIOS SETUP

• To access BIOS setup menu, press < DEL > key after “POST”, and before the OS is loaded. The BIOS usually displays the following message:

Press DEL to enter SETUP

4-3 WHAT IS CMOS

• CMOS is the memory maintained by a battery. The BIOS uses CMOS to store the settings you have selected in SETUP. The CMOS also maintains the internal clock. Every time you turn on your computer, the BIOS Looks into CMOS for the settings you have selected and configures your computer accordingly. If the battery is out of power, the CMOS data will be lost and POST will issue a “CMOS invalid” or “CMOS checksum invalid” message. If this happens, you have to replace the battery and do some proper settings in SETUP.

4-4 WHAT IS POST

• POST is an acronym for Power On Self Test. POST will test all things the BIOS does before the operating system is started. Each of POST routines is assigned a POST code, a unique number which is sent to I/O port 080h before the routine is executed.

4-5 BIOS UPGRADE

• System BIOS is incorporated into a Flash memory component of the mainboard. Flash BIOS allows user to upgrade BIOS without the need to replace an EPROM component.

Page 48

65KIV/KIV2

• The upgrade utility can be loaded on a floppy diskette and used to provide the capability to save, verify, and update the system BIOS. The upgrade utility can be run from a hard disk drive or a network drive.

4-5.1 Before Upgrading BIOS

• It is highly recommended that you save a copy of the original mainboard BIOS along with a Flash EPROM Programming utility (AWDFLASH.EXE) to a bootable floppy disk in case you need to reinstall the BIOS later.

4-5.2 Upgrade Process

Note: Normally, to upgrade BIOS is unnecessary if the system is working

fine without any problem. Users should not upgrade the BIOS unless you experience incompatible problems or need to create new features. However, please read all information in this section before upgrading.

“AWDFLASH.EXE” is a Flash EPROM Programming utility that updates the BIOS by uploading a new BIOS file to the programmable flash ROM on the mainboard, This program only works in DOS environment only, the utility

can not be executed in win95/98, ME, NT or WINDOWS 2000 environment.

Upgrading the system BIOS

Step 1. Please visit the board maker’s website, download latest BIOS file and award flash utility “AWDFLASH.EXE”. The BIOS file format will be *.bin, of which “*” stands for the specific file name.

Step 2. Create a bootable diskette. Then copy the BIOS file and award flash utility “AWDFLASH.EXE” into the diskette.

Step 3. Insert the diskette into drive A, reboot your system and boot from the diskette.

Page 49

BIOS Setup

Step 4. Type awdflash *.bin /sn/py/cc and then press <Enter> to run BIOS upgrade program. (*.bin depends on your mainboard model and version code. Instead of typing “*”, you should type specific file name for your specific mainboard).

Step 5. Please press <F1> or <F10> to exit or reset your system, Warning ! If the message “Write Fail” appears while Award “FLASH MEMORY WRITER” is verifying Flash memory, just repeat the process. Please DO NOT reset or turn off the system. If the award memory flash utility is not able to update the BIOS successfully, your system may not be able to boot up.

Step 6. You will need a message “CMOS checksum error-Default loaded” during booting the system. Press <Del> to run CMOS setup utility, then reload “LOAD SETUP DEFAULTS” or “Load Optimized Defaults” and save this change.

Cache memory is additional memory that is much faster than conventional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type up contain internal cache memory, and most, but not all, modern PCs have additional (external) cache memory. When the CPU requests data, the system transfers the requested data from the main DRAM into cache memory, for faster access by the CPU.

When you select Enabled, it will speed up memory checking when the external cache contains ECC SRAMs. The choices: Enabled; Disabled.

Choose Disabled or Enabled. When enabled, the processor serial number will display during the boot up screen.

Select Enabled to reduce the amount of time required to run the power-on self-test (POST). A quick POST skips certain steps. We recommend that you normally enable quick POST.
