If your mainboard has already been installed in your computer you may still need
to refer to this chapter if you plan to upgrade your system's hardware.
Be sure to disconnect the power cable from the power source before performing
any work on your mainboard, i. e. installing a CPU, memory module, changing
a jumper setting, etc. Not doing so may result in electrical shock!
2-1 Installing a CPU in a Socket 478
The Intel Socket 478, designed for the entium 4 processor, has been incorporated
as a standard mainboard specification To insert your C U into Socket 478 please
do the following:
1. Locate a small dot marked on the top surface of the C U close to one if it's corners.
The same corner will also be cut off, leaving a noticeable notch in the C U's corner.
These markings indicate in 1 of the C U.
2. ull up the lever of Socket 478 so that it is perpendicular with the surface of the
mainboard. Gently insert the C U with in 1 at the same corner of Socket 478
that contains the end of the lever. Allow the weight of the C U to push itself
into place. Do not apply extra pressure as doing so may result in damaging your
C U. Snap the lever back into place.
nstalling a standard ntel specified heat sink with cooling fan is necessary
for proper heat dissipation from your CPU. Failing to install these items
may result in overheating and possible burn-out of your CPU.
2-2 Setting Your CPU's Parameters
This mainboard use a new user friendly technology that enables the user to setup
a mainboard's C U parameters through an easy to use BIOS setup procedure. It is
no longer necessary to make many jumper settings as on conventional mainboards.
After installing all your hardware into your C system, you can manually configure
your C U clock ratio and C U clock according to your processor's specifications.
By turning on your system's power. Enter the CMOS Setup Utility by pressing
the Delete key when your BIOS identification screen appears, then go to the
Frequency/Voltage Control option and select your C U clock ratio and C U clock
speed (See Chapter 3).
You do not need to make voltage settings because this mainboard will
automatically sets your CPU voltage.

2-3 Connector and Jum er Settings
Connectors are used to link the system board with other parts of the system, including
the power supply, the keyboard, and the various controllers of the system case.
The power supply connector is the last connection to be made while installing a
mainboard. Before connecting the power supply, please make sure it is not
connected to the power source.
ATX/ATX12V Power Supply Connector (PW1/PW2/PW3)
The ATX power supply provides a single 20-pin
connector interface which incorporates standard +/
-5V, +/-12V, optional 3.3V and Soft-power signals.
The Soft-power signal, a 5V trickle supply is
continuously supplied when AC power is available.
When the system is in the Soft-Off mode, this trickle
supply maintains the system in it's minimum power
state.
The ATX12V power supply has a new +12 V (4-
pin) and +5 V/3.3 V(6-pin) auxiliary power
connector. To enable the delivery of more +12 VDC
and +5/3.3V VDC current to the motherboard.
Software Power-Off Control
This mainboard can be powered down using theWindows 9x Software ower-Off
function. To power down your computer, click the START button on the Windows 9x
task bar. Select "Shut Down The Computer" and the system turns off. The message "It
is now safe to turn off your computer" will not be shown when using this function.
Power-On By odem
While in Soft-off state, if an external modem ring-up signal occurs, the system wakes up
and can be remotely accessed. You may enable this function in BIOS's ower
Management Setup menu. (See Chapter 3)
Blinking LED in Suspend ode
While in Suspend mode, the LED light on the front panel of your computer will flash.
Suspend mode is entered by pressing the Override ower Button, pushing the Green
button on your ATX case, or enabling the ower Management and Suspend Mode
options in BIOS's ower Management menu. (See Chapter 3)
Poly-fuse Over Current Protection
The poly-fuse protects the system from dangerous voltages the system might be
exposed to via the keyboard or USB connectors. In case of such exposure, the poly-
fuse will immediately be disconnected from the circuit, just like a normal fuse. After
being disconnected for a certain period of time, the poly-fuse will return to its normal
state, after which the keyboard or USB can function properly again.

3-2 Advanced BIOS Features
By choosing the Advanced BIOS Features option from the Standard CMOS Features
menu (Figure 3-1), the screen below is displayed. his sample screen contains the
manufacturer's default values for the mainboard.
A.Virus Warning
Virus Warning is a code incorporated in the mainboard's BIOS firmware. During
the boot-up sequence, BIOS loads before loading of the partition table or boot
sector. Virus Warning loads with BIOS and is able to detect boot-up viruses
before they have a chance to infect the hard drive. Virus Warning employs rule-
based logic that doesn't look for specific viruses but rather detects patterns found
in every virus, eliminating the need to perform periodical version updates after
new viruses have been found.

B. CPU L1 and L2 Cache
Cache memory is much faster than conventional DRAM system memory. hese
fields allow you to enable or disable the CPUs Level 1 built-in cache and Level
2 external cache. Both settings are left enabled to significantly increase the
performance of your computer.
C. Boot Up Features
After turning on the system, BIOS will perform a series of device initializations
and diagnostic tests discussed below.
uick Power On Self Test (POST)
Enable this function to reduce the amount of time required to run the POS (Power
On Self est). BIOS saves time by skipping some items during POS . It is
recommended that you disable this setting. Discovering a problem during bootup
is better than loosing data during your work.
First/Second/Third/Boot Other Device
his option sets the sequence of drives BIOS attempts to boot from after POS
completes. BIOS will search these drives for an operating system.
Swap Floppy Drive
Enabling this function will swap the floppy drive assignment so that drive A will
function as drive B, and drive B will function as drive A. Note that the boot
sequence assignment mentioned directly above does not inlcude booting from
floppy drive B. his function is useful if floppy drives B and A are of a different
format and you want to boot from floppy drive B.
Boot up Floppy Seek
During POS , BIOS will determine if the installed floppy disk drive has 40 or 80
tracks. A 360K drive has 40 tracks and 720K, 1.2M and 1.44M drives have 80 tracks.
All modern floppy disk drives have 80 tracks.
Boot Up NumLock Status
his function defines the keyboard's numberpad as number keys or arrow keys.
D. Gate A 20 Option
Gate A20 refers to the way the system addresses memory above 1 MB (extended
memory). When set to Fast, the system chipset controls Gate A20. When set to
Normal, a pin in the keyboard controller controls Gate A20. Setting Gate A20 to
Fast improves system speed, particularly with OS/2 and Windows.

. Keyboard Interface
Typematic Rate Setting
When enabled, you can set the following two typematic control items. When
disabled, keystrokes are determined arbitrarily by the keyboard controller in your
system.
Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec)
he typematic rate sets the rate at which characters on the screen repeat when
a key is pressed and held down.
Typematic Delay (Msec)
he typematic delay sets how long after you press a key that a character begins
repeating.
F. Security Option
he Supervisor and/or User Password functions shown in Figure 3-1 must be set
to take advantage of this function. See Section 3-11 for password setting
information. When the Security Option is set to System, a password must be
entered to boot the system or enter the BIOS setup program. When the Security
Option is set to Setup, a password is required to enter the BIOS setup program.
G. OS Select (For DRAM > 64MB)
If your system's DRAM is larger than 64MB and you are running OS/2, select
OS/2 as the item value. Otherwise, set the item value to Non-OS/2 for all other
operating systems.
H. HDD Instant Recovery
his board supports HDD Instant Recovery, select enabled to use this function.
Upon system boot up, the HDD Instant Recovery Utility will be shown on the
screen. Selet Install or Do Not Install to continue booting (See Appendix II).

3-3 Advance Chipset Features
By choosing the Advanced Chipset Features option from the Standard CMOS Features
menu(Figure 3-1), the screen below is displayed. his sample screen contains the
manufacturer's default values for the mainboard.
All of the above settings have been determined by the mainboard manufacturer
and should not be changed unless you are absolutely sure of what you are
doing. Explanation of the DRAM timing and chipset features setup is lengthy,
highly technical and beyond the scope of this manual. Below are abbreviated
descriptions of the functions in this setup menu. You can look on the world
wide web for helpful chipset and RAM configuration information including
AWARD's web site at http://www.award.com.
A. AGP Aperture Size
Select the size of Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) aperture. he aperture is a portion
of the PCI memory address range dedicated for graphics memory address space. Host
cycles that hit the aperture range are forwarded to the AGP without any translation.

On-chip Primary/Secondary PCI IDE
You can set this to disable the On-chip IDE controller if you are going to add
a higher performance IDE board.
IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave PIO
he four IDE PIO (programmed Input/Output) fields let you set a PIO mode (0-
4) for each IDE device that the internal PCI IDE interface supports. Modes 0 through
4 provide successively increased performance. In Auto mode, the system
automatically determines the best mode for each device.
