Safety Approvals
CE Marking
FCC Class A
FCC Compliance
This equipment has been tested and complies with the limits for a
Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. If not installed and used in
accordance with proper instructions, this equipment might generate
or radiate radio frequency energy and cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measurers:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply with
emission limits.

iv
Safety Precautions
Before getting started, read the following important cautions.
1. Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when
installing the internal components. Use a grounding wrist strap
and place all electronic components in any static-shielded
devices. Most electronic components are sensitive to static
electrical charge.
2. Disconnect the power cords from the NA-810 before making
any installation. Be sure both the system and the external
devices are turned OFF. Sudden surge of power could ruin
sensitive components. Make sure the NA-810 is properly
grounded.
3. Do not open the system’s top cover. If opening the cover for
maintenance is a must, only a trained technician is allowed to
do so. Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to
static electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic
discharge, observe the following precautions:
9Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an
unpainted portion of the system unit chassis for a few seconds.
This will help to discharge any static electricity on your body.
9When handling boards and components, wear a wrist-grounding
strap, available from most electronic component stores.

Award BIOS Utility 7
Chapter 3
Award BIOS Utility
Chapter 3 describes the different settings available in the Award
BIOS that comes with the SBC8A810. Also contained here are
instructions on how to set up the BIOS configuration.
3.1 BIOS Introduction
The Award BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your
computer system’s ROM supports Intel Celeron processors in a
standard IBM-AT compatible I/O system. The BIOS provides critical
low-level support for standard devices such as disk drives, serial and
parallel ports. It also adds virus and password protection as well as
special support for detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the
entire system.
3.2 BIOS Setup
The Award BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the
system configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system
stores the Setup utility. When you turn ON the computer, the Award
BIOS is immediately activated. Pressing the <Del> key immediately
allows you to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit late
pressing the <Del> key, POST (Power on Self Test) will continue
with its test routines, thus preventing you from invoking the Setup. If
you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing
the ”Reset”button or simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and
<Delete> keys. You can also restart by turning the system OFF and
back ON again. The following message will appear on the screen:
Press <DEL> to Enter Setup
In general, you press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to
select, the <PgUp> and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for
help and <Esc> to quit.
When you enter the Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will appear
on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various
setup functions and exit choices.

SBC86804 Hardware Installation Guide
The section below the setup items of the Main Menu displays the
control keys for this menu. Another section located at the bottom of
the Main Menu, just below the control keys section, displays
information on the currently highlighted item in the list.
NOTE: If you find that your computer cannot boot after making and
saving system changes with Setup, the Award BIOS, via its
built-in override feature, resets your system to the CMOS
default settings.
We strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the
chipset defaults. These defaults have been carefully chosen by both
Award and your system manufacturer to provide the absolute
maximum performance and reliability.
3.3 Standard CMOS Setup
“Standard CMOS Setup”allows you to record some basic hardware
configurations in your computer system and set the system clock and
error handling. If the motherboard is already installed in a working
system, you will not need to select this option. You will need to run
the Standard CMOS option, however, if you change your system
