Pushing the button once will switch the system ON. The system power LED lights when the system's power is on . Power LED Lead (PW_LED) The system power LED lights when the system power is on. Speaker Connector (SPEAKER) An offboard speaker can be installed onto the motherboard as a manufacturing option. An offboard speaker can be connected to the motherboard at the front pannel connector. The speaker (onboard or offboard) provides error beep code information during the Power Self-Test when the computer cannot use the video interface. The speaker is not connected to the audio subsystem and does not receive output from the audio subsystem. Hard Drive LED Connector (HD_LED) This connector supplies power to the cabinet IDE activity LED. Read and write activity by devices connected to the Primary or Secondary IDE connectors will cause the LED to light up. S3_LED Lead (S3_LED) The system S3_LED lights when the system suspend is on the S3 modle. Reset Switch Lead (RESET) The connector can be connected to a momentary SPST type switch that is normally open. When the switch is closed, the motherboard resets and runs the POST. 1-7 Chapter 1 Motherboard Description SMI Suspend Switch Lead (EXTSMI) This allows the user to manually place the system into a suspend mode of Green mode. System activity will be instantly decreased to save electricity and expand the life of certain components when the system is not in use. This 2-pin connector (see the figure) connects to the case-mounted suspend switch. If you do not have a switch for the connector, you may use the "Turbo Switch” instead since it does not have a function. SMI is activated when it detects a short. It may require one or two pushes depending on the position of the switch. Wake-up can be controlled by settings in the BIOS but the keyboard will always allow wake-up (the SMI Suspend Switch Lead cannot wake-up the system). If you w an t t o u s e t h i s connector, the "Suspend Switch" in the Power Management Setup of the BIOS SOFTWARE section should be on the default setting of Enable. 1.3.2 Floppy Disk Connector (FDD) This connector supports the provided floppy drive ribbon cable. After connecting the single end to the board, connect the two plugs on the other end to the floppy drives. 1.3.3 Hard Disk Connectors (IDE1/IDE2) These connectors support the provided IDE hard disk ribbon cable. After connecting the single end to the board, connect the two plugs at the other end to your hard disk. If you install two hard disks, you must configure the second drive to Slave mode by setting its jumper settings. BIOS now supports SCSI device or IDE CD-ROM boot up (see "HDD Sequence SCSI/IDE First" & "Boot Sequence" in the BIOS Features Setup of the BIOS SOFTWARE) (Pin 20 is removed to prevent inserting in the wrong orientation when using ribbon cables with pin 20 plugged). 1-8 Chapter 1 Motherboard Description 1.3.4 ATX 4-pin/ATX 20-pin/AUX 6-pin Power Connector (CN3/ATX/AUX) This connector supports the power button on-board. Using the ATX power supply, functions such as Modem Ring WakeUp and Soft Power Off are supported on this motherboard. This power connector supports instant power-on functionality, which means that the system will boot up instantly when the power connector is inserted on the board.

Both types of interface ports will be explained in this chapter. The Serial Interfaces: COM1/COM2 The serial interface port is sometimes refered to as an RS232 port or an asynchronous communication port. Mice, printers, modems and other peripheral devices can be connected to a serial port. The serial port can also be used to connect your computer system. If you wish to transfer the contents of your hard disk to another system it can be accomplished by using each machine’s serial port. COM1/COM2 COM2 1 The serial port on this system has one 9-pin connector. Some older computer systems and peripherals used to be equipped with only a 25-pin connector. If you need to connect your 9-pin serial port to an older 25-pin serial port, you can purchase a 9to-25 pin adapter.

The Setup program allows the user to modify the basic system configuration. This special information is then stored in battery-backed RAM so that it retains the setup information when the power is turned off. The Award BIOS installed in your computer system’s ROM (Read Only Memory)is a custom version of an industry standard BIOS. This means that it supports Intel P4 processors input/output system. The BIOS provides critical low-level support for standard devices such as disk drives and serial and parallel ports. The rest of this manual is intended to guide you through the process of configuring your system using Setup. Plug and Play Support This AWARD BIOS supports the Plug and Play Version 1.0A specification. ESCD(Extended System Configuration Data) write is supported. EPA Green PC Support This AWARD BIOS supports Version 1.03 of the EPA Green PC specification. 2-1 Chapter 2 BIOS Setup APM Support This AWARD BIOS supports Version 1.1&1.2 of the Advanced Power Management(APM) specification.Power management features are implemented via the System Management Interrupt(SMI). Sleep and Suspend power management modes are supported. Power to the hard disk drives and video monitors can be managed by this AWARD BIOS. PCI Bus Support This AWARD BIOS also supports Version 2.1 of the Intel PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect)local bus specification. Support CPU This AWARD BIOS supports the Intel P4 CPU processor. Using Setup In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter>to select, use the <PgUp>and <PgDn>keys to change entries, press<F1>for help and press <Esc>to quit.

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. As above, the choices are On and Off. Off is the default. When set On, activity will neither prevent the system from going into a power management mode nor awaken it.

PCI or Personal Computer Interconnect,is a system which allows I/O devices to operate at speeds nearing the speed of the CPU itself uses when communicating with its own special components. This section covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced uses should make any changes to the default settings. Figure 7.

The rest of the cards will be initialized by the PnP operating system like Windows 95. When set to No, BIOS will initialize all the PnP cards. Therefore for non-PnP operating systems(DOS, Netware), this option must be set to No. The Choices: No(default), Yes. 2-30 Chapter 2 BIOS Setup Reset Configuration Data The system BIOS supports the PnP feature so the system needs to record which resource is assigned and proceeds resources from conflict. Every peripheral device has a node, which is called ESCD. This node records which resources are assigned to it. The system needs to record and update ESCD to the memory locations. These locations (4K) are reserved at the system BIOS. If Disabled (Default)is chosen, the system’s ESCD will update only when the new configuration varies from the last one. If Enabled is chosen, the system is forced to update ESCDs and then is automatically set to the “Disabled” mode.

PCI/ISA PnP signifies that a resource is assigned to the PCI Bus or provides for ISA PnP add-on cards and peripherals. The Choices: Disabled(default), Enabled. 2-31 Chapter 2 BIOS Setup Resources Controlled By By Choosing “Auto” (default), the system BIOS will detect the system resources and automatically assign the relative IRQ and DMA channel for each peripheral. By Choosing “Manual” the user will need to assign IRQ & DMA for add-on cards. Be sure that there are no IRQ/DMA and I/O port conflicts. The Choices: Auto(ESCD) (default),Manual. 2-32 Chapter 2 BIOS Setup PCI / VGA Palette Snoop Choose Disabled or Enabled. Some graphic controllers which are not VGA compatible take the output from a VGA controller and map it to their display as a way to provide boot information and VGA compatibility. However, the color information coming from the VGA controller is drawn from the palette table inside the VGA controller to generate the proper colors, and the graphic controller needs to know what is in the palette of the VGA controller. To do this, the non-VGA graphic controller watches for the write access to the VGA palette and registers the snoop data. In PCI based systems, the Write Access to the palette will not show up on the ISA bus if the PCI VGA controller responds to the Write. In this case, the PCI VGA controller should not respond to the Write, it should only snoop the data and permit the access to be forwarded to the ISA bus. The non-VGA ISA graphic controller can then snoop the data on the ISA bus. Unless you have the above situation, you should disable this option. Disabled (default) Enabled Function Disabled.
