3.10 Onboard VGA
The Intel 810E chipset is the result of new design approach to optimize the shared memory architecture while maintaining the cost benefits of integration through Direct AGP and Dynamic Video Memory Technology.
a. Direct AGP
Direct AGP delivers AGP class graphics performance to PCs at reduced cost. Rather than simply combining two semiconductor cell libraries for component reduction, Intel architects combined the 2D and 3D video capabilities with the memory control unit. This functional overlap within the Graphics and Memory Controller (Intel® 82810E) enables Direct AGP. Direct AGP provides an integrated graphics part with the capability to make direct memory set-up calls (similar to those associated with standard AGP protocol) to system memory. Direct AGP calls can dynamically allocate and de-allocate system memory for complex 3D textures, preserving the benefits of standard AGP add-in solutions.
Chapter 3 Hardware Description
b. Dynamic Video Memory Technology
Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT) enables breakthrough graphics and memory performance for all PC segments through Direct AGP and highly efficient memory use. DVMT ensures the most efficient use of all available memory – regardless of whether a frame buffer is present or the size of the main memory– for maximum 3D graphics performance. DVMT also responds to application requirements by automatically allocating the proper amount of display and texturing memory. For example, a 3D application might require more texture memory to enhance the richness of 3D objects. The operating system (OS) views the Intel 810 and 810E chipset driver as an application which uses Direct AGP to request re-allocation of additional memory for 3D applications and returns memory when not required. DVMT is highly scalable — as additional memory is added to the system, more memory will be available to enhance 3D applications. DVMT works dynamically and modulates the bandwidth available to the CPU, graphics and I/O interface, through the intelligent arbitration built into the Intel 82810E. This hard-coded logic evaluates the operating environment and prioritizes traffic to maximize bandwidth for memory intense multimedia applications.
c. Memory Usage with DVMT
The operating system requires allocation of up to 1Mbyte of system memory to support legacy VGA. System properties will display up to 1Mbyte less than physical system memory available to the operating system. The graphics driver for the Intel 810E/810 chipsets configurations will request up to 4Mbyte of memory from the OS to implement a maximum 1024 x768 screen resolution, 2Mbyte for a command buffer and 4Mbyte used for z-buffering. For high-end 3D applications, the drivers request allocation of system memory from the OS for graphics textures. When the 3D application is closed, the O/S will re-allocate system memory back for generic use.
3.11 TV-Out
Chrontel’s CH7007 digital PC to TV encoder is a stand-alone integrated circuit which provides a PC 99 compliant solution for TV output. Suggested application use with the Intel 810 chipset and Intel 810E chipset. It provides a universal digital input port to accept a pixel data stream from a compatible VGA controller (or equivalent) and converts this directly into NTSC or PAL TV format.
3.12 Panel Link Support
The Sil154 transmitter uses PanelLink® digital technology to support display ranging from VGA to SXGA resolutions (25-112MPps) in a single link interface. The Sil154 transmitter has a highly with 12-bit (1/2 pixel) or 24-bit 1 pixel /clock input for true color (16.7 million) support. In 24-bit mode, the data may be latch on the positive or negative edge of the clock. In 12-bit mode, multiple clocking options exist: with a signal clock, data will be clocked on the falling and the rising edge; with dual clocks data can be clocked on either the falling edge of the rising edge of both clocks.

•
IEEE802.3u auto-negotiation for automatic speed selection
•
10/100Mbps operation in a single port PCI bus master architecture

4.1 CPU Frequency Selection
Setting CPU Speed in the BIOS Setup
The LI7WM motherboard allows users to set the CPU speed through the BIOS Setup. The parameters used in configuring the CPU speed include CPU Clock Multiplier (X3, X3.5, X4, X4.5, X5, X5.5, X6, X6.5, X7, X7.5, X8) and CPU Clock (66MHz, 68MHz, 75MHz, 83MHz or 100MHz, 103MHz, 112MHz, 133MHz).
In the initial setup, the system automatically detects the base Frequency of the CPU (66MHz or 100MHz/133MHz). Under
the under CPU Speed Setting section, use the ↑ and ↓ keys to easily change the CPU speed or press the PageUp or PageDown key to see more options.
Overclocking could cause the system not to boot in the process of setting the CPU speed. When this happens, turn off the computer by pressing the power button and turn it on again by pressing the Insert key and the power button simultaneously. When the system is turned on, press the Delete key to enter BIOS Setup and configure the CPU speed.

Chapter 6 BIOS and System Setup
6.1 BIOS Introduction
The Award BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your computer system’s ROM supports Intel Celeron processors. The BIOS provides critical low-level support for a standard device such as disk drives, serial and parallel ports. It also adds virus and password protection as well as special support for detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.
6.2 BIOS Setup
The Award BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the system configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores the Setup utility. When you turn on the computer, the Award BIOS is immediately activated. Pressing the <Del> key immediately allows you to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit late pressing the <Del> key, POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its test routines, thus preventing you from invoking the Setup. If you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing the ”Reset” button or simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. You can also restart by turning the system Off and back On again. The following message will appear on the screen:
Press <DEL> to Enter Setup
In general, you press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to select, the <PgUp> and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help and <Esc> to quit. When you enter the Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will appear on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup functions and exit choices.

Virus Warning
This item protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk against accidental modifications. If an attempt is made, the BIOS will halt the system and display a warning message. If this occurs, you can either allow the operation to continue or run an anti-virus program to locate and remove the problem.
NOTE:
CPU Internal Cache / External Cache
Cache memory is additional memory that is much faster than conventional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type on 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. These items allow you to enable (speed up memory access) or disable the cache function. By default, these items are Enabled.
CPU L2 Cache ECC Checking
This field enables or disables the ECC (Error Correction Checking) checking of the CPU level -2 cache. The default setting is Enabled.

8.1 Introduction
The onboard ATI 3D RAGE LT PRO utilizes AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) bus to achieve rich 3D and video graphics display. It enables 3D graphics capabilities including support for z-buffering, alpha blending and faster texture mapping. Onboard TV-out connectors support S-VHS and RCA specifications. The unique features of the 3D RAGE LT PRO are as follows:
• TV-Out. An integrated TV encoder with on-chip triple-DAC
allows simultaneous CRT/LCD/TV output.
• Dual CRT Controller Support. Two independent CRT
controllers support two asynchronous simultaneous displays (LCD/CRT, CRT/TV)
• Floating-Point Set-up Engine. The 3D RAGE LT PRO
integrates a floating-point set-up engine capable of processing up to 1.2 million triangles per second. By off-loading the set -up function from the CPU, allowing it to focus on 3D geometry and lighting transformation, the 3D RAGE LT PRO dramatically improves the performance of the entire 3D pi peline.
• DVD and Video Support. DVD and video features include
enhanced motion compensation acceleration and a 4-tap horizontal and 2-tap vertical high quality DVD video scaler, providing smooth images without the jagged edges common to today’s video products. The scaler provides true color video display, independent of the graphics mode used.
• AGP 2X mode. With AGP 2X (133MHz) mode support, the
3D RAGE LT PRO offers a peak bandwidth in excess of 500MB/s, which is twice the output of the AGP 1X (66MHz) mode. It also supports AGP’s pipeline and sideband protocols that significantly improved the sustained bandwidth that is critical to the enhanced 3D and video performance.
