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 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.

2-4-4 FREQUENCY RATIO SELECT (BY SW3 DIP1-DIP5)

• The AMD Athlon and Duron processors provide four Frequency ID signals

(FID) respectively via DIP 1 to DIP4 of SW3 for the system controller to specify the SYSTCLK multiplier at which the processor core operates. Normally, the multiplier (or bus ratio) is detected automatically by FID. Therefore, if the processor does not support the function, then “Bus Ratio” can not be selected.

• When JP17 is “ON”, LED “LED1” will be on. It means that bus ratio

select function is enabled. So as long as your CPU supports bus ratio select function, then the bus ratio can be selected by users.

These connectors support CPU/System 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, the rotation of the fan blades will send out 2 electric pulses, by which system Hardware Monitor will work out the fan rotation speed.

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.

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 :

QJN=WHAT IS BIOS SETUP QJO=HOW TO RUN BIOS SETUP QJP=WHAT IS CMOS QJQ=WHAT IS POST QJR=BIOS UPGRADE QJS=BIOS SETUP

Page 48

75KIV

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 sys-

tem 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 that 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

Page 49

Chapter 4 BIOS Setup

replace an EPROM component.

• 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 also 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 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.

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 the specific file name for your

Page 50

75KIV

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 even 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.

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. Better to find a problem during POST than lose data during your work.

When set to On, any event occurring at will awaken a system which has been powered down. On : The system can not enter the power saving mode when I/O ports or IRQ# is activated. Off: The system can enter the power saving mode

when I/O ports or IRQ# is activated.

The following is a list of IRQs (Interrupt ReQuests), which can be exempted much as the COM ports and LPT ports above can. When an I/O device wants to gain the attention of the operating system, it signals this by causing an IRQ to occur. When the operating system is ready to respond to the request, it interrupts itself and performs the service. When set On, activity will neither prevent the system from going into a power management mode nor awaken it.
