2-4 JUMPER DEFINITIONS

• The figure below shows the location fo the motherboard’s jumper blocks.

CAUTION

• Do not move the jumper with the power on. Always trun off the power and unplug the power cord from the computer before changing the jumper.

Otherwise, the motherboard could be damaged.

FAN1/FAN2: ONBOARD FAN (12V)

CPU FAN FAN1

SYSTEM FAN FAN2

Those connectors support processor/system/chassis cooling fan with +12V. Those support three pin head connector. When connecting the wire to FAN connectors, user should give attention that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V, the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If your motherboard 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 fan speed sensor, every rotation of the fan will send out 2 pulses. System Hardware Monitor will count and report the fan rotation speed.

• 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 that you configurate 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 free IRQs 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 no two devices use the same IRQ or your computer will experience problems when those two devices are in use at the same time.

CHAPTER 4

BIOS SETUP

4-1 INTRODUCE THE BIOS

• BIOS stands for Basic Input Output System. It is sometimes called ROM

BIOS because it is stored in a Read-Only Memory(ROM) chip on the motherboard. 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.

4-2 WHAT IS BIOS SETUP

• Setup is an interactive BIOS program that you need to run when:

1. Changing the hardware on 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 caching)

4-3 HOW TO RUN BIOS SETUP

• One way of running SETUP is to press a special function key or key combination during POST, before the operating system is loaded during POST, the BIOS usually displays a prompt such as:

Press DEL to enter SETUP

4-4 WHAT IS CMOS

• CMOS is a special kind of memory maintained by a battery after you turn your computer off. The BIOS uses CMOS to store the settings you selected in SETUP. The CMOS also maintains the internal clock. Every time you turn on your computer, the BIOS Looks in CMOS for the settings you se-

37

75KV/75KV-X lected and configures your computer accordingly. If the battery charge runs too low, the CMOS content will be lost and POST will issue a “CMOS invalid” or “CMOS checksum invalid” message. If this happens, you may have to replace the battery. After the battery is replaced, the proper settings will need to be stored in SETUP.

4-5 WHAT IS POST

• POST is an acronym for Power On Self Test. It’s a traditional name for the routines that the BIOS uses to test and initializes the devices on your system when the PC is powered on. Its meanings has grown to include anything the BIOS does before the operating system is started. Each of POST routines is assigned a POST code, an unique number which is sent to I/O port 080h before the routine is executed.

4-6 BIOS UPGRADE

• Motherboards incorporate the system BIOS in a Flash memory component.

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

• The upgrade utility fits on a floppy diskette and 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, but no memory managers can be installed during upgrades.

4-6.1 BEFORE UPGRADE BIOS

• It is recommended that you save a copy of the original motherboard BIOS along with a Flash EPROM Programming utility(AWDFLASH.EXE) to a bootable floppy disk in case you need to reinstall the BIOS later.

4-6.2 UPGRADE PROCESS

• “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 motherboard. This file only works in DOS mode. To determine the BIOS version, check the release date displayed on the top of your screen during bootup. Newer dates represents a newer BIOS file.

38

75KV/75KV-X

Create a Boot Floppy (using a DOS system to create the bootable floppy)

• Place an unformatted floppy diskette in the floppy drive and format the floppy using the /S option.

Example: format a: /s

• Alternatively, place a formatted floppy in the floppy drive and use the “sys” command.

Example: sys a:

Create the BIOS Upgrade Floppy Diskette

• Download both the newest BIOS file and AWDFLASH.EXE file via motherboard maker’s website.

• The BIOS file you downloaded will be a *.bin format.

• Copy those two indispensable files to a bootable formatted floppy diskette.

Example: copy awdflash.exe a:

Example: copy *.bin a:

Upgrading the system BIOS

• Place the bootable floppy containing the BIOS into Drive A: of the system that you want ot upgrade and boot the system while thefloppy diskette is in the drive.

• When booting is finished, type awdflash *.bin /sn/py/cc/r and then press

<Enter> to run BIOS upgrade program. (*.bin depends on your motherboard model and version code)

The parameters of AWDFLASH.EXE

/sn: No original BIOS backup

/py: Program flash memory

/cc: Clear CMOS data after programming

/r : Reset system after programming

NOTE: User can type AWDFLASH /? to get further details about parameters. Wrong usage of parameter will damage the BIOS information, so that we strongly recommend user to leave parameters away unless you realize their function.

39

75KV/75KV-X

• Then appears a program window as below:

• After upgraded, the system will reboot itself automatically.

• NOTE : You will see a message “CMOS checksum error - Default loaded” during booting the system. Please press <Del> to run BIOS program, then reload “LOAD SETUP DEFAULTS” and save this change.

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.
