1-6.3 Host Interface
The host interface of the Intel® 815EP MCH is optimized to support the Intel® Pentium III processor and Intel® Celeron™ Processor in the FC-PGA package. The Intel® 815EP MCH implements the host address, control, and data bus interfaces within a single device. The Intel® 815EP MCH supports a 4-deep in-order queue(i.e., supports pipelining of up to 4 outstanding transaction requests on the host bus). Host bus addresses are decoded by the Intel® 815EP MCH for accesses to system memory, PCI memory and PCI I/O (via hub interface), PCI configuration space and Graphics memory. The Intel® 815EP MCH takes advantage of the pipelined addressing capability of the pipelined addressing capability of the processor to improve the overall system performance. The Intel® 815EP MCH supports the 370-pin socket processor. *370-pin socket (PGA370). The PGA370 is a zero insertion force (ZIF) socket that a processor in the FC-PGA package will use to interface with a system board.
1-6.4 System Memory Interface
The Intel® 815EP MCH integrates a system memory controller that supports a 64-bit 100/133 MHz SDRAM array. The only DRAM type supported is industry standard Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM).
8
Motherboard Description SY-7IS2
The SDRAM controller interface is fully configurable through a set of control registers. The Intel® 815EP MCH supports industry standard 64-bit wide DIMMs with SDRAM devices. The thirteen multiplexed address lines. SMAA[12:0], along with the two bank select lines, SBS[1:0], allow the Intel® 815EP MCH to support 2M, 4M, 8M, 16M, and 42M x64 DIMM. Only asymmetric addressing is supported. The Intel® 815EP MCH has 6 SCS# lines (2 copies of each for electrical loading), enabling the support of up to six 64-bit rows of SDRAM. The Intel® 815EP MCH targets SDRAM with CL2 and CL3 and supports both single and double-sided DIMMs. Additionally, the Intel® 815EP MCH also provides a 1024 deep refresh queue. The Intel® 815EP MCH can be configured to keep up to 4 page op[en within the memory array. Pages can be kept open in any one bank of memory. SCKE[4:0] is used in configurations requiring powerdown mode for the SDRAM.
1-6.5 AGP Interface
A single AGP connector is supported by the Intel® 815EP MCH AGP interface. The AGP buffers operate in one of two selectable modes in one of two selectable modes in order to support the AGP Universal Connector:
1) 3.3V drive, not 5 volt safe – This mode is compliant to the AGP
1.0 and 2.0 specs.
2) 1.5V drive, not 3.3 volt safe – This mode is compliant with the
AGP 2.0 spec. The following table shows the AGP Data Rate and the Signaling Levels supported by the MCH:
Signaling Level
Data Rate 1.5V 3.3V
1x AGP Yes Yes 2x AGP Yes Yes 4x AGP Yes No
9
Motherboard Description SY-7IS2
The AGP interface supports 4x AGP signaling. AGP semantic (PIPE# or SBA[7:0]) cycles to SDRAM are not snooped on the host bus. AGP FRAME# cycles to SDRAM are snooped on the host bus. The MCH supports PIPE# or SBA[7:0] AGP address mechanisms, but not both simultaneously. Either the PIPE# or the SBA[7:0] mechanism must be selected during system initialization. High priority accesses are supported. Only memory writes form the hub interface to AGP are allowed. No transactions from AGP to the hub interface are allowed.
1-6.6 Hub Interface
The hub interface is a private interconnect between the Intel® 815EP MCH and the ICH2.
10
Motherboard Description SY-7IS2
1-6.7 IDE Support
The motherboard has two independent bus-mastering PCI IDE interfaces. These interfaces support PIO Mode3, PIO Mode 4, PIO Mode 5 ATAPI devices (e.g., CD-ROM), and Ultra DMA 33/66/100 synchronous-DMA mode transfers. The BIOS supports logical block addressing (LBA) and extended cylinder head sector (ECHS) translation modes. The BIOS automatically detects the IDE device transfer rate and translation mode. Programmed I/O operations usually require a substantial amount of processor bandwidth. However, in multitasking operating systems, the bandwidth freed by bus mastering IDE can be devoted to other tasks while disk transfers are occurring. The motherboard also supports laser servo (LS-120) drives. LS-120 technology allows the user to perform read/write operations to LS-120 (120MB) and conventional 1.44MB and 720KB diskettes. An optical servo system is used to precisely position a dual-gap head to access the diskett’s 2,490 tracks per inch (tpi) containing up to 120 MB of data storage. A conventional diskette uses 135 tpi for 1.44 MB of data storage. LS-120 drivers are ATAPI-compatible and connect to the motherboard’s IDE interface. (LS-120 drives are also available with SCSI and parallel port interfaces.) Some versions of Windows 95 and Windows NT operating systems recognize the LS-120 drive as a bootable device in both 120 MB and 1.44 MB mode. Connection of an LS-120 drive and a standard 3.5-inch diskette drive is allowed. The LS-120 drive can be configured as a boot device if selected as Drive A in the BIOS setup program.
¿
Note
If you connect a LS-120 drive to an IDE connector and configure it as the :boot: drive and configure a standard 3.5-inch diskette drive as a “B” drive, the standard diskette drive is not seen by the operating system. When the LS-120 drive is configured as the “boot: device, the system will recognize it as both the A and B drive

1-8 HARDWARE MONITOR
The optional hardware monitor subsystem provides low-cost instrumentation capabilities. The features of the hardware monitor subsystem include:
Ø An integrated ambient temperature sensor Ø Fan speed sensors, which monitor the fan 1 and fan 2 connectors Ø Power supply voltage monitoring to detect levels above or below
acceptable values When suggested ratings for temperature, fan speed, or voltage are exceeded, an interrupt is activated. The hardware monitor component connects to the SMBus.
1-9 WAKE ON LAN TECHNOLOGY
Wake on LAN technology enables remote wakeup of the computer through a network. Wake on LAN technology requires a PCI add-in network interface card (NIC) with remote wakeup capabilities. The remote wakeup connector on the NIC must be connected to the onboard Wake on LAN technology connector. The NIC monitors network traffic at the MII interface; upon detecting a Magic Packet, the NIC asserts a wakeup signal that powers up the computer. To access this feature uses the Wake on LAN technology connector.
*
CAUTION
For Wake on LAN, the 5-V standby line for the power supply must be capable of delivering +5V ±5 % at 720 mA. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing Wake on LAN can damage the power supply.

Step 6. CPU Frequency Settings: JP6, JP7, CJ1 and CJ2
For certain Intel CPUs, the multiplier is not locked such that setting a multiplier higher than specified on the CPU is possible. For technical details read the following:
Your FC-PGA 133/100/66 MHz FSB CPU has a pin JP6, JP7 to tell it what FSB frequency the CPU requires; If these two jumpers are shorted the motherboard will automatically run at the frequency the CPU was specified to run at.
However, the FSB Frequency can also be set through jumpers CJ1 and CJ2 and it may therefore differ from the Frequency the CPU specifies. If CJ1 and CJ2 are to be used, JP6 & JP7 must be open. Doing so may however force your CPU to operate out of its specifications and therefore SOYO can not guarantee the proper functioning of your system.

2-3.9 Troubleshooting at First Start
Video (no display) related issues
I built a new computer system using a Soyo board and nothing happens when turning it on, no video and no beeps from the PC speaker. What is happening and how can it be fixed?
No screen and no beeps mean that your CPU and motherboard do not work at all. It could be that the CPU is not seated correctly or that a component on the M/B is grounded (shorted) with the case. Also make sure to check the voltage setting switch (110V/220V) on the back of the power supply. To isolate the problem do the following:
1. Press and hold down on the “Ins” (insert) key while turning on the
computer until you get video. If you do not get video then,
2. Double-check jumpers setting on you motherboard and remove all
add-on cards, unplug all hard-disk and floppy-disk drive cables and see if you can hear some beeps. If you still do not get any beeps, then try putting the motherboard on the table (to isolate it from the case) with the CPU and speaker only, and give it one more try.
I hear a series of beeps and I do not get anything from my monitor. What could be wrong?
The following lists some basic beep codes and their possible meanings:
• One long beep and 3 very short beeps - The video card is not
detected by the motherboard. Please re-seat your video card. If you are using an AGP card, please push your AGP card down real hard. You may have to push VERY hard without the AGP card mounting screw. Make sure not to insert the card the other way around.
• Continuous beeps – One or more of the memory modules is not
seated correctly in its socket.
45
new AGP card, it does not give me any video. Is my AGP slot bad?
This is a common problem with AGP video cards. The reason is that your AGP card did not get seated into the AGP slot fully and firmly. Please push your AGP card down into the socket real hard, it should snap twice. You may have to unscrew the AGP card to allow the card to go further down. Do take care not to damage the card by using too much force.
I get distorted video my AGP card right after I save my bios. Why is that?
The cause is likely that your AGP card is not running at the correct bus speed. To fix this, please clear the CMOS via JP5 and if it still does not work, please upgrade your motherboard bios to the latest version.
BIOS Issues
Where can I find the BIOS revision of my mainboard?
It will be displayed on the up-left corner on the screen during boot-up. It will show as your board type followed by the revision number, such as 5EH_2CA1 (meaning revision 2CA1 for the SY-5EH board) or 6BA+ IV_2AA2 which means SY-6BA+ IV motherboard with 2AA2 bios.
Where can I find the latest BIOS of my motherboard?
Please go to the technical support page of one of the SOYO websites (Taiwan: www.soyo.com.tw), and look up your motherboard to find the latest BIOS revision.
Hard disk, floppy drive, CD-ROM etc
When I boot up my new computer I got "floppy boot failure" and the LED on the floppy stays on
Make sure the red wire of floppy ribbon cable goes to Pin1 on the floppy drive side (don't trust the "key lock" or "notch") and use the end-connector of the cable (don't use middle one).
Modem issues
I get an "I/O Conflict" message when I turn on my system and I can
46
What you need to do is to disable 'COM2' (or UART2 or serial port 2) in the bios under integrated peripheral setup.
I have installed my modem drivers several times and I still cannot get my modem to work. Why?
If you are sure that the modem driver has been installed correctly, then you need to install the south bridge driver from the SOYO CD, this is because Windows does not properly recognize relatively new chipsets.
Audio Issues
I do not get any sound from my sound card. What could be wrong?
Please make sure the speaker is connected to the speaker out port on your sound card.
In Device Manager, I keep getting yellow exclamation signs on my sound port even though I have installed my sound driver several times and I could not get my sound card to work. What is wrong?
It is likely that you did not have the correct driver installed. If you are sure that the correct sound driver has been installed, then please install the 'south bridge' driver for the motherboard.
The sound is working in my system, but when I play CD music from the CD-ROM, I do not get any sound. What is wrong?
This is because the 3-wire audio cable from the CD-ROM to the sound card is not connected or it is loose.
The sound from my sound card is distorted when Windows starts. What is wrong?
First, if you are using an ISA sound card, please make sure the IRQ needed for the sound card is set to 'Legacy ISA' in the bios. In other words, if your ISA sound card takes IRQ5, then set IRQ5 to 'Legacy ISA'. Next, install the 'south bridge' driver for the motherboard.
47
microphone do not work. What is wrong?
This is because the recorder and microphone in the Windows are not enabled. Please go to sound properties and enable them.
Lock up (freeze)
When I boot up my system, everything works fine. It sees my CPU and memory, detects my hard drive, floppy drive and CD-ROM but locks up at "Verify DMI pool data... ", and it won’t go any further. What should I do?
Please clear the CMOS via JP5 then choose 'load setup default' in the bios and save the bios and exit. Next, unplug all other add-on cards except the video card and floppy drive controller, and see if it can boot from floppy. Then put back the peripherals one by one to identify which one causes the lockup. If you are running a Cyrix CPU, make sure the 'linear burst function' is enabled in the bios.
I can not get my board to run properly.
Please make sure you have the latest bios and driver from the SOYO web site at: http://www.soyo.com

Note on Over-clocking Capability
The SY-7IS2 provides over-clocking capability. Due to the over­clocking setting your system may fail to boot up or hang during run time. Please perform the following steps to recover your system from the abnormal situation :
1. Turn off system power (If you use an ATX power supply, and
depending on your system, you may have to press the power button
for more than 4 seconds to shut down the system.)
2. Press and hold down the <Insert> key while turning on the system
power. Keep holding down the <Insert> key until you see the
message of the CPU type and frequency shown on the screen.
3. Press the <Del> key during the system diagnostic checks to enter the
Award BIOS Setup program.
4. Select [Save & Exit SETUP] and press <Enter> to save the new
configuration to the CMOS memory, and continue the boot

THE SOYO CD
The SOYO-CD will NOT autorun if you use it on an Operating System other than Windows 9x or NT.
Your SY-7IS2 Motherboard comes with a CD-ROM labeled "SOYO CD." The SOYO CD contains (1) the user's manual file for your new Motherboard, (2) the drivers software available for installation, and (3) a database in HTML format with information on SOYO Motherboards and other products.
Step 1. Insert the SOYO CD into the CD-ROM drive
If you use Windows NT, the SOYO-CD will not detect your motherboard type. In that case the following dialog will pop up, please choose your motherboard and press OK. Now the SOYO-CD Start Up Menu will be shown.
