After you fail to update BIOS or BIOS is invaded by virus, the
Boot-Block function will help to restore BIOS. If the following message is shown after boot-up the system, it means the BIOS contents are corrupted.
In this Case, please follow the procedure below to restore the BIOS:
1. Make a bootable floppy disk.
2. Download the Flash Utility “AWDFLASH.exe” from the Biostar website: www.biostar.com.tw
3. Confirm motherboard model and download the respectively BIOS from Biostar website.
4. Copy “AWDFLASH.exe” and respectively BIOS into floppy disk.
5. Insert the bootable disk into floppy drive and press Enter.
6. System will boot-up to DOS prompt.
(xxxx means BIOS name.)
8. System will update BIOS automatically and restart.
9. The BIOS has been recovered and will work properly.

If the system shutdown automatically after power on system for seconds, that means the CPU protection function has been activated.
When the CPU is over heated, the motherboard will shutdown automatically to avoid a damage of the CPU, and the system may not power on again.
In this case, please double check:
1. The CPU cooler surface is placed evenly with the CPU surface.
2. CPU fan is rotated normally.
3. CPU fan speed is fulfilling with the CPU speed.
After confirmed, please follow steps below to relief the CPU protection function.
1. Remove the power cord from power supply for seconds.
2. Wait for seconds.
3. Plug in the power cord and boot up the system.
Or you can:
1. Clear the CMOS data.
(See “Close CMOS Header: JCMOS1” section)
2. Wait for seconds.
3. Power on the system again.

ROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Solution
1. No power to the system at all
Power light don’t illuminate, fan inside power supply does not turn on.
1. Make sure power cable is securely plugged in.
3. Contact technical support.
2. Indicator light on keyboard does not turn on.
System inoperative. Keyboard lights are on, power indicator lights are lit, and hard drive is spinning.
System does not boot from hard disk drive, can be booted from optical drive.
Using even pressure on both ends of the DIMM, press down firmly until the module snaps into place.
1. Check cable running from disk to disk controller board. Make sure both ends are securely plugged in; check the drive type in the standard CMOS setup.
2. Backing up the hard drive is extremely important. All hard disks are capable of breaking down at any time.
System only boots from optical drive.
Hard disk can be read and applications can be used but booting from hard disk is impossible.
Screen message says “Invalid
Configuration” or “CMOS Failure.”
Cannot boot system after installing second hard drive.
1. Back up data and applications files.
2. Reformat the hard drive.
Re-install applications and data using backup disks.
Review system’s equipment. Make sure correct information is in setup.
1. Set master/slave jumpers correctly.
2. Run SETUP program and select correct drive types. Call the drive manufacturers for compatibility with other drives.

WARPSPEEDER™
5.1 I
NTRODUCTION
[WarpSpeeder™], a new powerful control utility, features three user-friendly functions including Overclock Manager, Overvoltage
Manager, and Hardware Monitor.
With the Overclock Manager, users can easily adjust the frequency they prefer or they can get the best CPU performance with just one click. The
Overvoltage Manager, on the other hand, helps to power up CPU core voltage and Memory voltage. The cool Hardware Monitor smartly indicates the temperatures, voltage and CPU fan speed as well as the chipset information. Also, in the About panel, you can get detail descriptions about
BIOS model and chipsets. In addition, the frequency status of CPU, memory, AGP and PCI along with the CPU speed are synchronically shown on our main panel.
Moreover, to protect users' computer systems if the setting is not appropriate when testing and results in system fail or hang,
[WarpSpeeder™] technology assures the system stability by automatically rebooting the computer and then restart to a speed that is either the original system speed or a suitable one.
5.2 S YSTEM R EQUIREMENT
OS Support: Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP
DirectX: DirectX 8.1 or above. (The Windows XP operating system includes DirectX 8.1. If you use Windows XP, you do not need to install
DirectX 8.1.)

Contains About, Voltage, Overclock, and Hardware Monitor Buttons for invoking respective panels. c. With a user-friendly Status Animation, it can represent 3 overclock percentage stages:
Man walking→overclock percentage from 100% ~ 110 %

Overclock Panel contains the these features: a. “–3MHz button”, “-1MHz button”, “+1MHz button”, and “+3MHz button”: provide user the ability to do real-time overclock adjustment.
Warning:
Manually overclock is potentially dangerous, especially when the overclocking percentage is over 110 %. We strongly recommend you verify every speed you overclock by click the Verify button. Or, you can just click Auto overclock button and let [WarpSpeeder™] automatically gets the best result for you. b. “Recovery Dialog button”: Pop up the following dialog. Let user select a restoring way if system need to do a fail-safe reboot.
26
P4M800 Pro-M7 c. “Auto-overclock button”: User can click this button and
[WarpSpeeder™] will set the best and stable performance and frequency automatically. [WarpSpeeder™] utility will execute a series of testing until system fail. Then system will do fail-safe reboot by using Watchdog function. After reboot, the
[WarpSpeeder™] utility will restore to the hardware default setting or load the verified best and stable frequency according to the Recovery Dialog’s setting. d. “Verify button”: User can click this button and [WarpSpeeder™] will proceed a testing for current frequency. If the testing is ok, then the current frequency will be saved into system registry. If the testing fail, system will do a fail-safe rebooting. After reboot, the [WarpSpeeder™] utility will restore to the hardware default setting or load the verified best and stable frequency according to the Recovery Dialog’s setting.
Note:
Because the testing programs, invoked in Auto-overclock and Verify, include DirectDraw, Direct3D and DirectShow tests, the DirectX 8.1 or newer runtime library is required. And please make sure your display card’s color depth is High color (16 bit) or True color (24/32 bit) that is required for Direct3D rendering.

[WarpSpeeder™] utility.
28
P4M800 Pro-M7
Note:
Because the overclock, overvoltage, and hardware monitor features are controlled by several separate chipset, [WarpSpeeder™] divide these features to separate panels. If one chipset is not on board, the correlative button in Main panel will be disabled, but will not interfere other panels’ functions. This property can make [WarpSpeeder™] utility more robust.
