1-2 Software Power Off Control
The mainboard design supports Software Power Off Control feature through the SMM
code in the BIOS under Windows 95/98, Windows 3.1x, and MS-DOS operation system
environment. In order to reach this feature, you should use ATX power supply.
First, you should connect the power switch cable to the connector “PS-ON” on the
mainboard. In the BIOS screen of ‘POWER MANAGEMENT SETUP’, choose “User
Defined” or “Min. Power Saving” or “Max. Power Saving”) in ‘Power Manager’ and
choose “Yes” in ‘PM Control by APM’.
In Windows 95/98, if you would like to power off the system, you just choose
“shutdown the computer ?” in the “Shut Down Windows“ from Windows 95/98, then the
system power will be off directly and become the stand-by status. In the mean time, you
will find the power LED light is blinking. If you would like to restart the system, just
press the power switch button, and the system will be powered on.
Note : If you will leave your system for several days, we suggest you use hardware power
off to shutdown your system.
1-3 SB-L nk S deband S gnals (JP5)

1-4 Wake-On-LAN
The remote Wake-On-LAN mode of operation is a mechanism that uses Advanced
Micro Device Magic Packet technology to power up a sleeping workstation on the
network. This mechanism is accomplished when the LAN card receives a specific packet
of information, called a Magic Packet, addressed to thenode on the network. For
additional protection, Secure ON is an optional security feature that can be added to the
Magic Packet that requires a password to power up the sleeping workstation. When the
LAN card is in remote Wake-On-LAN mode, main system power can be shut down
leaving power only for the LAN card and auxiliary power recondition.
The LAN card performs no network activities while in the remote Wake-On-LAN mode
of operation-It only monitors the network for receipt of a Magic Packet. If a Magic Packet
is addressed to the LAN card on the network, the LAN card wake up the system. If the
Secure ON feature has been enabled, the password added to the Magic Packet is also
verified prior to waking up the system.
CAUTION :
It needs to use with the ATX power supply revision 2.1 ( which can deliver
+5V standby ±5% at 720mA ) and the LAN card supports WOL function with
INTEL protocol.

1-5 Keyboard & PS/2 Mouse Power On
The ATC-6130E mainboard has two easy and convenient ways to power up the system.
Users may power on the system by typing a password or by double-clicking the PS/2 mouse
on the left or right button. It just depends on which one users set in the “Power On function”
of BIOS INTEGRANTED PERIPHERALS. And this function is available for ATX power
supply only.
In order to satisfy different users that will have many different needs, the ATC-6130E
mainboard provides four different methods to power up the system:
1. KB Power On Password:
The setting process is as follow: Password: when users select this option, it will show
“Enter Password:”. After users type the password, it will show “ Confirm Password:”
and users have to type the same password to confirm it now. Under power-off
condition, if users type the correct password, the system will be powered on
immediately.
If you have set the keyboard password power on function, but lost the password, you
can CLEAR CMOS to clear the password. Or you can’t power on the system.
2. Hot Key Power On:
When users select this option, it will show another line below as Hot Key Power ON :
“Ctrl-F1”.You can select from “Ctrl-F1” to “Ctrl-F12” by using PageUp / PageDown
keys. After power off, users can hold down both the Ctrl and F1 keys to power up the
system.
3. Mouse Left, Mouse R ght :
This function is available for PS/2 mouse only. It will power up the system by double
clicking the left or right mouse. Note that do not move the mouse when you click. Or
you can’t power on the system.
4. BUTTON ONLY :
Only the power button can power on the system.
1-6 Therm ster (opt on)
This means that user can monitor the CPU temperature through thermister.
When setting up the thermister, the Bios will load the CPU temperature automatically.
There is a choice of the warning beep sound if the user set the option on. If the CPU
temperature is overheated, the user will get the notice from the thermister. This time you
should shut down computer and check your devices. Or you can connect with you dealer.

1-7 LDCM （LANDesk Cl ent Manager）(opt on)
If ATC-6130E built-in hardware component support Intel LDCM. LDCM can satisfy
users who want manageable systems that can interact automatically with the user. Client
manager is the answer, enabling both administrators and clients to manage systems. The
features of LDCM are as following :
※Rev ew system nventory
Client Manager enables you to view hundreds of inventoried items. Some of these items
are software related, while many others are hardware related.
※V ew DMI-compl ant component nformat on
Client manager enables you to view component information that is compliant with the
Desktop Manager Interface（DMI）. This means you can manage third-party DMI-
compliant components not included with Client manager.
※Back up and restore system conf gurat on f les.
Client Manager enables you back up and restore system configuration files.
Whenever you plan on changing the system configuration , you can make a backup
set. If the system no longer works correctly, after you change the system
configuration , you can simply restore the system configuration with the backup set.
※Troubleshoot
Since Client manager enables you to view the system inventory, you can easily
troubleshoot system problems.
※Rece ve not f cat ons for system events
Client manager enables you to receive notification of certain system events. For example,
if the system is running low on virtual memory, you are notified of the potential
problem.
※Transfer f les to and from cl ent workstat ons
As an administrator, you have the ability to transfer files to and from client workstation.
This is helpful, for example, when you need to update a client workstation driver.
※Remotely reboot cl ent workstat ons Administrator also have the ability to
remotely reboot a workstation. This is helpful when you want system configuration
changes to take effect.

CHAPTER 3 Award BIOS SETUP
Award BIOS manufacturer provides access to the system BIOS through the hardware and
software on each ATC-6130E mainboard. The hardware consists of a Flash ROM and the
software is a group of programs that are installed in the ROMBIOS along with all the
other data the BIOS must contain.
The ATC-6130E mainboard will require special driver supplied by the manufacturer to
update the BIOS SETUP program. It is a good idea to read the next page for details for
update BIOS driver installation or you can ask your system dealer to do it for you.
When the driver has been successfully updated, it is very important to contact your
system dealer to change the CMOS settings for your computer. The CMOS settings are
shown in the following pages.
NOTE : To clear CMOS you should unplug the power cord, then set 2-3 to clear, put it
back to normal position and plug the power cord again.

3-1 UPDATE BIOS PROCEDURES
If the BIOS needs to be updated, you can get a diskette or CD with the updated BIOS
driver from your system supplier. The BIOS updated diskette or CD includes :
“awdflash.exe” -- BIOS updated utility program
“awdflash.doc”
“ updated the BIOS filename with version number).bin”
The updated procedure is in the following:
1. Boot the system to DOS mode in a normal manner.
2. Insert the updated diskette or CD to drive A or CD ROM drive.
3. Change working directory to floppy drive A or CD ROM drive, which contains the
updated BIOS diskette or CD.
-- Type “a:\” or “d:\flash”, then press “ENTER” key.
4. Run the BIOS updated utility -- Type “awdflash”, “ENTER”.
5. Type “ updated BIOS file name with version number).bin”, ENTER.
6. If you do not want to save the old BIOS version, type “N” when the screen displays
the message : " Do you want to save BIOS Y/N) ?".
7. Type “Y“ when the screen shows the message : " Are you sure to program Y/N) ?".
8. Follow the instructions on the screen. DO NOT remove the updated BIOS
diskette or CD from the floppy drive or CD ROM drive nor turn the system power off
until the BIOS updated is completed.
9. Turn the power off. Clear the data in CMOS according to the procedure described in
the previous page.
10. Turn the system power on and test that your system is working properly.

3-1-1 UPDATE PENTIUM II BIOS API
Intel also provides MICROCODE API Applications Programming Interface) for
PentiumII processor-based mainboard user to updated data block in BIOS quickly and
easily. You can find this utility either in the 3.5“ diskette or CD in the package.)
The BIOS code on the PentiumII processor-based mainboards contains data that is
specific to each silicon stepping of the processor. Integrators must ensure that this BIOS
stepping data matches the processor stepping used. When the BIOS does not contain
stepping data that matches the processor stepping, integrators must updated the data in the
BIOS before shipping the system. Historically, PentiumII systems have been updated by
replacing the entire BIOS with a new revision of BIOS that contains the correct stepping
data.
Intel‘s BIOS updated API allows just the stepping data within the BIOS to be updated
as needed. Mainboards that contain a BIOS with the Intel-defined BIOS updated API can
be quickly and easily updated, if required, without obtaining a complete BIOS upgrade.
Using this utility, integrators can easily verify that the correct stepping data is present in
all PentiumII processor-based mainboards. However, if the stepping data requires
updating, the mainboard BIOS must contain the Intel-defined BIOS updated API,
otherwise a complete BIOS upgrade is required from the mainboard vendor.
Put the CD into CD-ROM drive, e.g. drive E, and then type
E:\>”ENTER”, and type \api\checkup3.
Or put the API diskette into the floppy disk drive, and then type
A:\>cd api; A:\>checkup3
The main menu should now be displayed, showing the following four options :
1) Check and load updated
2) Specify stepping data file [current : pep.pdb]
3) Help
4) Quit without loading updated
Select 1 to know the stepping filename, select 2 to load right patch code, then select 1 to
updated proper patch code. Now, the screen will show the message “please remove floppy
diskette from floppy disk drive” or “CD from CD-ROM drive”. Then cold boot
mechanical power off) system to continue. For more information, please refer to
“CHECKUP.HLP“ file.
