System Utilities
Most systems are already configured by the manufacturer or the dealer. There is no need to run
Setup when starting the computer unless you get a Run Setup message.
The Setup program loads configuration values into the battery-backed nonvolatile memory called CMOS RAM.
This memory area is not part of the system RAM.
NOTE: If you repeatedly receive Run Setup messages, the battery may be bad. In this case, the system cannot retain configuration values in CMOS.
Before you run Setup, make sure that you have saved all open files. The system reboots immediately after you exit Setup.

Entering Setup
To enter Setup, press the key combination .
NOTE: You must press simultaneously while the system is booting.

VGA Palette Snoop
Description
Select Auto to let BIOS automatically configure the plugand-play (PnP) devices installed in your system.
Otherwise, select Manual.
Note: Refer to your PCI card manual for technical information.
When you set the PCI IRQ Setting parameter to Auto, these parameters specify the auto-assigned interrupt for each of the PCI devices. If you set the PCI IRQ Setting parameter to Manual, you need to specify the interrupt that you want to assign for each PCI device installed in your system.
Setting this parameter to Yes allows you to assign the same IRQ to two different devices. To disable the feature, select No.
Note: If there are no IRQs available to assign for the remaining device function, we recommend that you enable this parameter.
This parameter permits you to use the palette snooping feature if you installed more than one VGA card in the system. The VGA palette snoop function allows the control palette register (CPR) to manage and update the
VGA RAMDAC (Digital Analog Converter, a color data storage) of each VGA card installed in the system. The snooping process lets the CPR send a signal to all the
VGA cards so that they can update their individual
RAMDACs. The signal goes through the cards continuously until all RAMDAC data has been updated.
This allows the display of multiple images on the screen.
Note: Some VGA cards have required settings for this feature. Check your VGA card manual before setting this parameter.

Parameter
Graphics Aperture Size

Reset Resource
Assignments
Description
This parameter determines the effective size of the graphics aperture. Graphics aperture is the address range that the AGP video and the CPU use to manage graphical objects. The lowest setting is 8 MB and the highest is 256 MB.
When this parameter is set to Yes, BIOS initializes only
PnP boot devices such as SCSI cards. When set to No,
BIOS initializes all PnP boot and non-boot devices such as sound cards.
Note: Set this parameter to Yes only if your operating system is Windows 95/98/2000.
Set this parameter to Yes to avoid IRQ conflict when installing non-PnP or PnP ISA cards. This clears all resource assignments and allows BIOS to reassign resources to all installed PnP devices the next time the system boots. After clearing the resource data, the parameter resets to No.

Power-On Self-Test (POST)
Each time you turn on the system, the Power-on Self Test (POST) is initiated. Several items are tested during
POST, but is for the most part transparent to the user.
The Power-On Self Test (POST) is a BIOS procedure that boots the system, initializes and diagnoses the system components, and controls the operation of the power-on password option. If POST discovers errors in system operations at power-on, it displays error messages on screen, generates a check point code at port
80h or even halts the system if the error is fatal.
The main components on the main board that must be diagnosed and/or initialized by POST to ensure system functionality are as follows:
!

!
Microprocessor with built-in numeric co-processor and cache memory subsystem
Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller
Interrupt system

POST Error Messages List
If you cannot run the diagnostics program tests but did receive a POST error message, use “POST Error
Messages List” to diagnose system problems. If you did not receive any error message, look for a description
of your error symptoms in “Error Symptoms List” on page 75
.
NOTE: When you have deemed it necessary to replace an FRU, and have done so, you must run a total system check to ensure that no other activity has been affected by the change. This system check can be done through the diagnostics program.
NOTE: Check all power supply voltages, switch, and jumper settings before you replace the main board. Also check the power supply voltages if you have a “system no-power” condition.
If you are unable to correct the problem by using the “BIOS Messages List” table and “Error Symptoms List”
table, go to “Undetermined Problems” on page 79.
NOTE: To diagnose a problem, first find the BIOS error messages in the left column. If directed to a check procedure, replace the FRU indicated in the check procedure. If no check procedure is indicated, the first Action/FRU listed in right column is the most likely cause.
