Hyper-Threading Technology
Description
Selects the hard disk boot priority.
Allows you to choose the Virus warning feature for the IDE hard disk boot sector protection. If this function is enabled and someone attempts to write data into this area, BIOS will show a warning message on screen and alarm beep.
Uses internal level 1 (L1) and external level 2 (L2) cache memory to improve performance.
The processor uses Hyper-Threading technology to increase transaction rates and reduces end-user response times. The technology treats the two cores inside the processor as two logical processors that can execute instructions simultaneously. In this way, the system performance is highly improved. If you disable the function, the processor will use only one core to execute the instructions.

Parameter
DRAM Timing Selectable
CAS Latency Time
Active to Precharge Delay
DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay
Description
Selects whether DRAM timing is controlled by the
SPD (Serial Presence Detect) EEPROM on the
DRAM module. Setting to By SPD enables DRAM timings to be determined by BIOS based on the configurations on the SPD. Selecting Manual allows users to configure the DRAM timings manually.
This controls the timing delay (in clock cycles) before SDRAM starts a read command after receiving it. Settings: 2, 2.5, 3 (clocks). 2 (clocks) increases the system performance the most while 3
(clocks) provides the most stable performance.
The field specifies the idle cycles before precharging an idle bank.
This field allows you to set the number of cycles for a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe signals, used when DRAM is written to, read from or refreshed. Fast speed offers faster performance while slow speed offers more stable performance.

Description
This item controls the number of cycles for Row
Address Strobe (RAS) to be allowed to precharge.
If insufficient time is allowed for the RAS to accumulate its charge before DRAM refresh, refresh may be incomplete and DRAM may fail to retain data. This item applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system.
Selecting Enabled allows caching of the system
BIOS ROM at F0000h-FFFFFh, resulting in better system performance. However, if any program writes to this memory area, a system error may result.
Selecting Enabled allows caching of the video BIOS
ROM at C0000h to C7FFFh, resulting in better video performance. However, if any program writes to this memory area, a system error may result.
In order to improve performance, certain space in memory can be reserved for ISA peripherals. This memory must be mapped into the memory space below 16MB. When this area is reserved, it cannot be cached.
When the CPU temperature reaches a factory preset level, a thermal monitoring mechanism will be enabled following the appropriate timing delay specified in this field. With the thermal monitoring enabled, clock modulation controlled by the processor’s internal thermal sensor is also activated to keep the processor within allowable temperature limit.
This setting controls just how much system RAM can be allocated to AGP for video purposes. The aperture is a portion of the PCI memory address range dedicated to graphics memory address space. Host cycles that hit the aperture range are forwarded to the AGP without any translation.
This item specifies which VGA card is your primary graphics adapter.
This setting determines whether the system RAM can be allocated to on-chip video controller for video purposes. When setting to Enabled, up to
128MB system RAM will be allocated to on-chip video controller.
Frame Buffer is the video memory that stores data for video display (frame). This field is used to determine the memory size for Frame Buffer.
Larger frame buffer size increases video performance.

This item specifies the power saving modes for
ACPI function. Options are:
S1/POS: The S1 sleep mode is a low power state. In this state, no system context is lost
(CPU or chipset) and hardware maintains all system context.
S3/STR: The S3 sleep mode is a lower power state where the information of system configuration and open applications/files is saved to main memory that remains powered while most other hardware components turn off to save energy. The information stored in memory will be used to restore the system when a “wake up” event occurs.
When ACPI Suspend Mode is set to S3 or
S1&S3, users can select the options in this field. Selecting [Yes] allows BIOS to call
VGABIOS to initialize the VGA card when system wakes up (resumes) from S3 sleep state. The system resume time is shortened when you disable the function, but system will need an AGP driver to initialize the VGA card.
Therefore, if the AGP driver of the card does not support the initialization feature, the display may work abnormally or not function after resuming form S3.

Chapter 2
RAID 0
RAID 0 uses an algorithm to break files into smaller files of the user defined size called the stripe size. Once a file is broken down into these stripes, each drive in the array receives one or more of these fragments. For example, if there are two drives in a RAID 0 array with a 64KB stripe size and the RAID controller gets a command to write a single 128KB file, the file is broken down into two 64KB stripes. Next, one of the two stripes is sent to disk 1 and the other to disk 2 simultaneously This completes the write process.
Naturally, this decreases the time required to write a file since more than one disk is working to store the information. In our example above the time associated with writing our 128KB file turns out to be the time required to write a single 64KB file, since this is what is what occurs simultaneously on both disks in the array.
The speed of reading a file back is also increased with a sufficiently large file. Let's use our 128KB file on a two disk RAID 0 array with a 64KB stripe size for example again. After the data is stored on both drives in the array, it can be read back by reading the two 64KB files from each drive at the same time. Thus, once again, the time required to read back our 128KB file is actually only the time required to read a single 64KB file.
In some situations, when a file is smaller than the stripe, the file is not broken up and instead is written to the array as is. This results in no speed improvement over a non RAID 0 setup because the drives on the array are not working together when reading or writing.
At the same time, an extremely small stripe size makes a drive do more work than it can handle and can significantly slow down RAID 0 performance as well. For example, if we had a 1KB stripe size and a 128KB file, each drive would have to be written to 64 times to store 64 different 1KB files. This creates a bottleneck as the drive attempts to read or write a large number of times for a single file.
As we mentioned before, RAID 0 has no fault tolerance, meaning that if one drive in the array fails, the whole array is shot. There is no way to rebuild or repair the information stored on a RAID 0 array. This makes a RAID
0 is setup the most susceptible to failure RAID type, a fact that usually keeps users with sensitive data from choosing RAID 0 as their RAID setup.
At the same time, however, RAID 0 is the fastest of all RAID setups. Since there is no overhead required to store extra information for fault tolerance, the speed of RAID 0 can theoretically perform 2 times the speed of a single drive when there are 2 drives in the array. Adding more drives only increases this theoretical performance amount, so if you have a 6 drive RAID 0 array, performance could be as large as 6 times the performance of a single drive.
Using different hard drives in a RAID 0 setup can result in two problems. First off, the size of the RAID array will only be the size of the smallest drive multiplied by the number of drives in the array. This is because the controller always writes to all the drives in the array and once one is filled no more information can be stored on the array. Secondly, the speed of a RAID 0 setup is only as fast as the slowest drive in the array. Because chunks of data are being written to the disks at the same time, if one drive is slower than the rest the others must sit and wait for the slowest drive to finish. It is for these reasons that it is suggested that identical drives be used on a RAID 0 setup.
What RAID 0 boils down to is speed and little more. The fact of the matter is that RAID 0 is not redundant at all, just fast. But for many users, this is all that is important.
Chapter 2 62
RAID 1
RAID 1 works by writing identical sets of information to two drives in an array. When the controller is sent a
64KB file to be written to a two disk RAID 1 array, the controller sends identical copies of this 64KB file to both disks in the array. Reads are the same as on a single drive: the controller requests the file from one of the two drives.
The special feature of RAID 1 is its fault tolerance. If either of the two drives in the array fails, no data is lost. If/ when a drive fails, the RAID controller simply uses the information off of the drive that is still available. When a new drive is added to the array to fix the failed one, a mirroring occurs in which the data from the good drive is written to the new drive to recreate the array again.
As one could suspect, RAID 1 offers very little in terms of performance. When requesting data from a drive, some RAID controllers take information from the drive that is not busy or closer to the desired information, theoretically resulting in faster data access. When writing, on the other hand, there is some overhead when compared to a single drive as the controller must duplicate the file it is sent and then pass it along to the drives.
In a RAID 1 setup, identical drives are best in order to prevent lost space. Since the same data is being written to two drives, the size of the RAID 1 array is equal to the size of the smallest drive in the array. For example, if a 20GB drive and a 30GB drive are used in a RAID 1 setup, the array would only be 20GB with the 10 extra gigabytes on the 30GB drive going to waste. The performance difference between two drives is also an issue here, since a faster drive would have to wait for a slower drive before it could write more information.
RAID 1 is a good solution for those looking for security over speed. Although not the slowest of the common
RAID types, RAID 1 can be slower than a single drive in some cases (more on that in the benchmarks). What
RAID 1 does provide is a very safe environment, where failure of a single drive does not equate to any down time.

Chapter 4 90
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
Three programmable timers
!
!
!
!
!
!
!
!
ROM subsystem
RAM subsystem
CMOS RAM subsystem and real time clock/calendar with battery backup
Onboard parallel interface controller
Embedded hard disk interface and one diskette drive interface
Keyboard and auxiliary device controllers
1.44M floppy controller
I/O ports
!
!
One parallel port
One PS/2-compatible mouse port
!
One PS/2-compatible keyboard port
NOTE: When Post executes a task, it uses a series of preset numbers called check points to be latched at
.
port 80h, indicating the stages it is currently running. This latch can be read and shown on a debug board.
The following table describes the BIOS common tasks carried out by POST. Each task is denoted by an unique check point number. For other unique check point numbers that are not listed in the table, refer to the corresponding product service guide.
Post Checkpoints List: The list may vary accordingly depending on your BIOS

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 120 .
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”.
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.

Cannot find or initialize the hard drive controller or the drive. Make sure the controller is installed correctly. If no hard drives are installed, be sure the Hard Drive Selection in Setup is set to NONE.
The system may run specific disk diagnostic routines. This message appears if one or more hard disks return an error when the diagnostics run.
Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure the keyboard is attached correctly and no keys are pressed during POST.
To purposely configure the system without a keyboard, set the error halt condition in Setup to HALT ON ALL, BUT
KEYBOARD. The BIOS then ignores the missing keyboard during POST.
This message usually indicates that one or more keys have been pressed during the keyboard tests. Be sure no objects are resting on the keyboard.
