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 FTP DRAM are incompliant with
the mainboard. The M/B supports 2.5V 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 184-pins and one notch
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.

2-5.3 Frequency Ratio Select (By SW1 DIP1-DIP5)
• The AMD Athlon and Duron processors provides four Frequency ID signals
(FID) for the system controller to indicate the SYSTCLK multiplier at which
the processor core operates. Normally, multiplier (or bus ratio) is detected
automatically. Therefore, if the processor does not support the function, then
“Bus Ratio” can not be selected.
• When DIP5 of SW1 is on, LED “SSF1” will be on, and light is on, it means
that Bus Ratio Select Function is enabled. So as long as your CPU supports
Bus Ratio Select function, then Bus Ratio can be selected by users.

IMPORTANT:
• Do figure out the correct processor type by processor’s OPN (Ordering
Part Numbers). Correct CPU external frequency is key to ensure reliability
of your system.
• Incorrect CPU external frequency or overclocking might cause unstable
performance, so we strongly recommend to leave “SW1” at default setting
or legal operation.

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 is supported by Hardware Monitor, with a warning
will be given out to high CPU temperature.

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
52
Page 53
Chapter 4 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 perfor mance 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 display 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.
53
Page 54
75DRV/75DRV-X
• The upgrade utility can be loaded on a floppy diskette and used to provides
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 form the
diskette.
54
Page 55
Chapter 4 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.

The parameters of AWDFLASH.EXE
/sn: No original BIOS backup
/py: Program flash memory
/cc: Clear CMOS data (and update data automatically) after pro gramming
NOTE: Users can type AWDFLASH /? to get further details about the
parameters. Incorrect usage of the parameter will damage the BIOS
information, so we strongly recommend user to leave parameters alone unless
you fully understand their function.

not the entire hard drive.
NOTE: Many disk diagnostic programs that access the boot sector table
can trigger the virus warning message. If you plan to run such a program,
we recommend that you disable the virus warning.
CPU Internal Cache/
External Cache
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.
