2-1 CPU Installation with Socket 478

This mainboard is built with CPU Socket 478 ( 47-pin) supporting the Intel Pentium 4 CPU:

• Follow the steps described in this section to install the 478-pin Pentium 4 CPU into the on board Socket 478.

• After installation of Pentium 4 CPU, you must also install the specific Pentium 4 CPU fan designed in tandem with this CPU. This CPU Fan installation is described in next section.

1. First pull sideways the lever of Socket 478, and then turn it up 90

so as to raise the upper layer of the socket from the lower platform.

3. Make sure that all CPU pins have completely entered the socket and then lower down the lever to lock up CPU to socket.

2. Configure Pin 1 of CPU to Pin 1 of the Socket, just as the way shown in the diagram on the left. Adjust the position of CPU until you can feel all CPU pins get into the socket with ease.

2-3.2 To Remove a DIMM:

Press down the holding latches on both sides of socket and the module will be released from the DIMM socket.

2-3 Memory Installation

• This mainboard only supports up to 2GB unbuffered DDR SDRAM,

with 2 DDR DIMM sockets on board. Do not insert other type of modules into these sockets.

• DDR DIMM socket has 184-pins and one notch. Insert a DDR SDRAM

vertically into the 184-pin socket with the notch matching the one in the socket. Press the Module down in a gradual way until it surely reaches the bottom and clicks straight up the two latches on the left and right of the socket. If any one of the latches has not turned up completely, you should unplug the module and press it down the socket a bit more firmly.

How to tackle with the memory Modules:

• Make sure to unplug your power supply before adding or removing

memory module. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your main board and the memory module.

• Pay attention to the orientation of the DIMM slots. Forcing a DIMM in

a socket improperly will damage the memory module and socket.

• Make sure you have the right type of memory module for your

mainboard.

2-7.1 Switch 1 System Clock Adjust

This mainboard is built with a 4-DIP Switch on board, by which user can adjust the CPU clock generator for the Pentium 4 processor installed on board. Yet users are not recommended to take Switch 1 as a tool for overclocking. It is saver and more advisable for users to select the CPU clock as close as possible to the one marked on the selected CPU. Default setting of SW1 is 100MHz.

Advice from our Engineering Team :

CPU Overclocking should always take all other components on board into account. No matter what Host clock your CPU has , any attempt to set your CPU to higher frequency than the host will get no guaranty of success. Instead, you are taking the risk of breaking the stability of your CPU as well as the mainboard.

How to tackle with Jumpers:

• Do not remove the jumper when power is on. Always make sure the power is off before changing any jumper settings. Otherwise, mainboard could be damaged.

• In the Jumper setting diagram, all jumper pins covered with black marks stand for closed pins by jumper caps.

2-7.2 JBAT1 Clear CMOS

1. Power off system;

2. Set JBAT1 to Pin 2-3 closed.

3. After 2 or 3 seconds, return the JBAT1 setting to Pin1-2 closed.

4. CMOS data are restored to default. Remember never clear CMOS when system power is on.

When you have problem with rebooting your system, you can clear CMOS data and restore it to default value. To clear CMOS with Jumper JBAT1, please follow the steps below:

2-7.4 Jp6 CPU Clock Select:

• Jp6 is designed on board for user to select the CPU clock before booting. This mainboard supports CPU that can autodetect CPU clock itself. If you leave Jp6 at default value 1-2 closed, CPU on board will auto-detect its own CPU clock. If you set Jp6 all open, CPU is set at 100 MHz. If you set Jp6 at 2-3 closed, CPU on board will try to boot at 133 MHz. If booting fails, you should reset Jp6 to default and then clear CMOS to restore the default CMOS setting. And Jp6 setting should match with a proper SW1 setting for booting your system (see the Setting Table below).

• However, overclocking should take other components on board into account and it always risks the stability of your system. There is no guarantee of success.

2-9 IRQ Description

• 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 freeIRQs 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 each ISA device should be assigned to one IRQ respectively. If ISA device share IRQ with any other device, your computer will easily get into trouble.

Chapter 4 BIOS Setup

This Chapter includes the following topics : 4-1 About BIOS Setup 4-2 To Run BIOS Setup 4-3 About CMOS 4-4 The POST (Power On Self Test) 4-5 To Upgrade BIOS 4-6 BIOS Setup

BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. It was once called ROM BIOS when it was stored in a Read-Only Memory(ROM) chip Now manufacturers would like to store BIOS in EEPROM which means Electrically Erasable Programmable Memory. BIOS used in this series of mainboard is stored in EEPROM, and 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 manage your PC hardware by means of a set of routines called BIOS RunTime Service.

THE BIOS

Chapter 4 BIOS Setup

4-1 About 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 To Run BIOS Setup

First access BIOS setup menu by pressing < DEL > key after “POST” is complete ( before OS is loaded ). BIOS will then display the following message:

Press “DEL” to enter “SETUP”

4-3 About CMOS

CMOS is the memory maintained by a battery. CMOS is used to store the BIOS settings you have selected in BIOS Setup. 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 runs 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 BIOS Setup.

4-4 The POST ( Power On Self Test )

POST is an acronym for Power On Self Test. This program 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 To Upgrade BIOS

• System BIOS is incorporated into a Flash memory component. Flash

BIOS allows user to upgrade BIOS without the need to replace an EPROM component.

• The Upgrade Utility can be loaded on a floppy diskette to execute saving,

verifying, and updating 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 so that you can reinstall the BIOS when needed.

4-5.2 Upgrade Process

• Normally, to upgrade BIOS is unnecessary if the system is working fine

Users should only upgrade the BIOS when you experience incompatible problems or need to create new features.

• “AWDFLASH.EXE” is a Flash EPROM Programming utility that up dates

the BIOS by uploading a new BIOS file to the programmable flash ROM on the mainboard. This program only works in DOS environment, the

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

• Please follow the steps below for 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 BIOS 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 53

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.

CPU L1 & L2 Cache Cache memory is additional memory that is much

faster than conventional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type up contain internal cache memory (L1), and most, but not all, modern PCs have additional (external) cache memory (L2). When the CPU requests data, the system transfers the requested data from the main DRAM into cache memory, for faster access by the CPU.

Virus Warning When enabled, you receive a warning message if a

program (specifically, a virus) attempts to write to the boot sector or the partition table of the hard disk drive. You should then run an antivirus program. Keep in mind that this feature protects only the boot sector, not the entire hard drive.

3. Press <ESC> to return to the Main Menu when you finish setting up all items. The following item descriptions are provided as a quick guide to your setup.

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.

The following is a list of IRQ’s (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.

Appendix-3 Technical Terms

AC’97 AC’97 is a device designed to include a digital processor for modem and an audio CODEC for analog I/O. These two parts are linked together by AC’97 link bus. Putting the digital processor into the main system chipset will reduce the cost of sound/modem onboard solution.

ACPI (Advanced Configuration & Power Interface) ACPI is developed together by Intel, Microsoft and Toshiba. This interface provides a channel of management of the PC system and its hardware such as CPU and BIOS, pushing the PC power management to a more advanced and user-friendly level.

AGP (Accelerated Graphic Port) AGP is a bus interface targeted for high-performance 3D graphics. AGP takes advantage of both rising and falling edge of the 66MHz clock. For 2X AGP, the data transfer rate is 66MHz x 4byte x 2 = 528MB/s. AGP 4X mode is 66MHz x 4byte x 4 = 1056MB/s.

AMR (Audio/Modem Riser) AMR is an interface to connect the CODEC circuit of AC’97 sound/ modem solution to the mainboard through an AMR card and an AMR connector.

APM (Advanced Power Management) APM is developed by Intel and Microsoft , intending for PC power management through the system BIOS. Through APM, the PC power consumption can be reduced to 5W or lower.

UATA (Ultra AT Attachment), ATA/66, ATA/100, ATA133 ATA is the specification of disk drive interface, that integrates the controller on the disk drive itself with the IDE technology.

UATA/66 uses both rising edge and falling edge to provide a data transfer rate 16.6MB/s x4 = 66MB/s. To use UATA/66, you need special UATA/66 IDE cable.

UATA/100/133 also uses both rising edge and falling edge as ATA/66, but clock cycle time is reduced to 40ns. The data transfer rate is (1/ 40ns) x 2 bytes x 2 = 100MB/s. To use UATA/100/133, you need special 80-wire IDE cable, the same as UATA/66.

Page 95

Appendices

ATAPI (AT Attachment Packet Interface) This is the exension of the EIDE (extended IDE) that enables the interface to support CD-ROM players and tape drives.

BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) BIOS is a set of assembly routine/program that resides in EPROM or Flash ROM. BIOS controls Input/output devices and other hardware devices of the mainboard. Generally, operation system and drivers will access BIOS before accessing hardware devices so as to enhance the portability of the hardware devices.

Bus Master IDE (DMA mode) An IDE interface is an interface for mass storage devices, in which the controller is integrated into the disk or CD-ROM itself. To reduce the workload of the CPU, the bus master IDE device transfers data from/to memory without interrupting CPU, and releases CPU to operate concurrently while data is transferring between memory and IDE device. You need the bus master IDE driver and the bus master IDE HDD to support bus master IDE mode.

CAS (Column Address Strobe) CAS is a technology of DRAM writes and reads. The number of clock cycles of the CAS signals is depending on the DRAM timing.

CMOS Chip (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor Chip) CMOS Chip is built on CMOS Technology, by which CMOS Chip can store data with very slow power supply.

CNR (Communication and Networking Riser) CNR interface provides a cost reducing method of implementing LAN, home networking, DSL, USB, wireless, audio and modem subsystems through a CNR card and a CNR connector.

CODEC (Coder and Decoder) Normally, CODEC means a circuit that can do digital to analog conversion and vice versa. It is part of AC’97 sound/modem solution.

DDR (Double Data Rated) SDRAM DDR SDRAM essentially doubles the memory speed of SDRAMs without increasing the clock frequency.

Page 96

Appendices

DIMM (Dual In Line Memory Module) DIMM socket is built with a 168-pin assignment and supports 64-bit data. DIMM can be single or double sided. The golden finger signals on each side of the module are different, and that is why it is called Dual In Line. Almost all DIMMs are made with SDRAM now, which operate at 3.3V. Some old DIMMs are made by FPM/EDO and only operate at 5V.

DMA (Direct Memory Access) Channel for communications between memory and surrounding devices.

ECC (Error Checking and Correction) The ECC algorithm has the ability to detect double-bit error and automatically correct single-bit error while parity mode can only detect single-bit error.

ECP (Enhanced Communication Port) ECP is a technology designed to improved I/O for parallel ports.

EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) EPP is a standard that supports data transfer rates of up to 500 kps for parallel printers

EDO (Extended Data Output) Memory Unlike traditional FPM (Fast Page Mode) memory that tri-states the memory output data to start the pre-charge activity, EDO DRAM holds the memory data valid until the next memory access cycle, which is similar to pipeline effect in reducing one clock state.

EEPROM (Electronic Erasable Programmable ROM) Both EEPROM and Flash ROM can be re-programmed by electronic signals, but the interface technology is different. Size of EEPROM is much smaller than flash ROM. BIOS is now generally stored in EEPROM or Flash ROM.

EPROM (Erasable Programmable ROM) Traditional mainboard stores BIOS codes in EPROM which can only be erased by ultra-violet (UV) light. If BIOS has to be updated, you need to remove EPROM from mainboard, clear data by UV light, reprogram, and then insert it back to socket.

Page 97

Appendices

FC-PGA (Flip Chip-Pin Grid Array) FC means Flip Chip, while FC-PGA is a new package of Intel for Pentium III CPU. It is compatible with SKT370 socket, but requires mainboard to add some signals on socket 370.

Flash ROM Flash ROM can be re-programmed by electronic signals. It is easier for BIOS to upgrade by a flash utility, but it is also easier to be infected by virus. Because of increase of new functions, BIOS size is increased from 64KB to 256KB (2M bit) or more.

FSB (Front Side Bus) FSB is the data channel connecting the Processor to chipset, RAM, mainboard buses, AGP socket etc. Its speed is in terms of MHz and is talked to as FSB clock: FSB Clock means CPU external bus clock. CPU internal clock = CPU FSB Clock x CPU Clock Ratio

IEEE 1394 IEEE 1394 is a low-cost digital transfer interface with transfer rate at 100, 200 or 400 Mbps. It provides solutions of connecting digital television devices and Serial Bus Management. There are two type of IEEE 1394 data transfer: asynchronous and isochronous. Isochronous data channels provide guaranteed data transport at a pre-determined rate. This is especially important for time-critical multimedia data where just-in-time delivery eliminates the need for costly buffering.

NVRAM Non-volatile RAM does not lose data even if the power is off. it is much slower yet much more expensive than standard memory.

Parity Bit The parity bit mode of error detection uses 1 parity bit for each byte. Normally it is even parity mode, that is, each time the memory data is updated, parity bit will be adjusted to have even count “1” for each byte. Next time when memory is read with odd number of “1”, the parity error is occurred and this is called single bit error detection.

PC-100 DIMM SDRAM DIMM that supports 100MHz CPU FSB bus clock.

PC-133 DIMM SDRAM DIMM that supports 133MHz CPU FSB bus clock.

Page 98

Appendices

PC-1600 or PC-2100 DDR SDRAM PC-1600 DDR SDRAM with a 64-bit data bus doubles the data transfer rate of PC100 SDRAM and hence provides data transfer bandwidth up to 100x64/8x2=1600MB/s. PC2100 DDR SDRAM doubles the data transfer rate of PC-133 and hence provides data transfer bandwidth up to 133x64/8x2=2100MB/s.

PCI (Peripheral Component Interface) Bus A high speed data channel for the internal connection of peripheral devices and the computer system through a PCI expansion card.

PnP (Plug and Play) The PnP specification suggests a standard register interface for both BIOS and operating system (such as Windows 95). These registers are used by BIOS and operating system to configure system resource and prevent any conflicts. PnP BIOS or operating system will automatically allocate the IRQ/DMA/Memory. Currently, almost all the PCI cards and most ISA cards are already PnP compliant.

POST (Power-On Self Test) The BIOS self-test procedure after power-on. It is generally the first or the second program shown on your monitor screen during system boot.

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) A group of hard disks set up in PC system for data fault tolerance and better performance. RAID is usually more used in servers than in personal computers. Different level of RAID stands for different function and performance: Level 0 provides data striping or spreading out blocks of files across multiple disks, and so improvement of performance but no fault tolerance. Level 1 provides disk mirroring, and so data backup. Level 3 provides a dedicated disk for error correction of data, and so better performance and some fault tolerance.

RAS (Row Address Strobe) RAS is a technology that DRAM writes and reads to the Row addresses, while a CAS (Column Address Strobe) signal is used to validate the column address. The signals are generally sent CAS before RAS. (in Network field, RAS stands for Remote Access Services).

RDRAM (Rambus DRAM) Rambus DRAM is a memory technology that uses large burst mode data transfer of up to 1.6GHz. It is import to know that RDRAM technology helps set up a system level improvement, not just a component upgrade.

RIMM (Rambus Inline Memory Module) RIMM is built with a 184-pin architecture module that supports RDRAM memory technology. A RIMM memory module may contain up to maximum of 16 RDRAM devices.

SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) SDRAM is one of the Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) technologies that allow DRAM to use the same clock as the CPU host clock (EDO and FPM are asynchronous and do not have clock signal). SDRAM comes in 64-bit 168-pin DIMM and operates at 3.3V.

SIMM (Single In Line Memory Module) SIMM socket is only 72-pin, and is only single side. The golden finger signals on each side of PCB are identical. That is why it is called Single In Line. SIMM is made of FPM or EDO DRAM and supports 32-bit data. SIMM is phased out in current mainboard design.

SPD (Serial Presence Detect) SPD is a small ROM or EEPROM device resided on the DIMM or RIMM. Memory module information such as DRAM timing and chip parameters can be stored into SPD so that BIOS can access it and use it to decide best timing for this DIMM or RIMM.

UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/transmitter) UART is built in a chip that controls the data sent to and received from a serial port. A 16550 UART is now standard in most PCs, and supports modem speed up to 57,600 bps and beyond and direct connect speed of 115,200 bps. Many UARTs have built-in errors in the internal code and just do not work correctly with many external modems. UART is also found as the serial interface on internal modem.

Ultra DMA Ultra DMA (or, more accurately, Ultra DMA/33) is a protocol for transferring data at 33.3MB/s between a hard disk drive through the computer’s data path (or bus) to the computer’s random access memory (RAM). The transfer data is twice as fast as the previous Direct Access Memory (DMA) interface. The latest Ultra DMA has advanced to Ultra DMA/66 and Ultra DMA/100.

16.6MB/s x2 = 33MB/s

16.6MB/s x4 = 66MB/s

USB (Universal Serial Bus) USB is a 4-pin serial peripheral bus that is capable of cascading low/ medium speed peripherals (less than 10Mbit/s) such as keyboard, mouse, joystick, scanner, printer and modem.

VCM (Virtual Channel Memory) NEC’s Virtual Channel Memory (VCM) is a new DRAM core architecture that dramatically improves the memory system’s ability to service multimedia requirements. VCM increases memory bus efficiency and performance of any DRAM technology by providing a set of fast static registers between the memory core and I/O pins. Using VCM technology results in reduced data access latency and reduced power consumption.

VRM (Voltage regulator Module) This is a small module installed on a mainboard to regulate the voltage fed to the processor on board. Voltage regulator can be built on board in various way. VRM is a socketed type of regulator module which is easier to change when needed.

Zero Wait State When memory is operating at its fastest speed in its course of fetching and yielding data, it allows no “no-op” cycle and is called in a zero wait state. On the other hand, a memory is in a wait state , after it gets a command to fetch data, it waits for one , two or more cycles to assure that the expected data is in the buffer.

ZIP file Zip file is a compressed file with a reduced file size.

Zoom To zoom is to make a window or screen larger or smaller in a Graphical User Interface of a computer system. Usually, to “zoom in” means to enlarge, and to “zoom out” means to reduce size.
