CW33 Mainboard
The1stMainboard CW33 is a microATX sized Socket 370 Mainboard support-
ingthe Intel® Celeron™ PPGA 300A-500 MHz processor. A highly integrated
and feature rich Mainboard it offers the very latest in cutting edge onboard
features.Based around theadvancedarchitecture of thenew Intel® 810 chipset,
the 1stMainboard CW33 is equipped with high quality onboard audio and
video capabilities.
The onboard video function benefits significantly from the state of the art
Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT), which ensures more efficient
use of the system memory. The DVMT feature builds upon AGP technology
to automatically size video memory to meet the appropriate functional and
performance requirements of any application.
With the advanced new Suspend to RAM function (must run an operating
system which allows ACPI, such as Windows 98), all data is stored to the
DRAM when the system goes to suspend mode- greatly reducing the system’s
power consumption. When the system is woken from the suspend mode, all
data is instantly available, meeting the user-friendly requirements of the
1stMainboard Instantly Available PC. The CW33 also supports the Ultra
DMA33/66* protocol and its high-speed interface, which significantly im-
proves hard drive performance and data transfer speeds. This is especially the
case for long sequential data transfers typically associated with audio/visual
applications.
The 1stMainboard CW33 boasts a complete range of standard I/O connec-
tions including the new Audio Modem Riser Card connection, TV-Out pin-
header, Digital Flat Panel pin header, VGA connector and Media connector.
Other advanced features include Auto Power Failure Recovery and Keyboard/
Mouse Power On. The 1stMainboard CW33 has 3 PCI expansion slots, 2
DIMM for up to 512 MB of SDRAM, and is PC98 and Y2K compliant. The
1stMainboard CD Pro provides users with easy ‘one-touch’ access to the
latest advanced onboard drivers.

Overview
ACPI Ready
Thismainboard fully implements the new ACPI (Advanced Configuration and
PowerInterface) 1.0Hardware andBIOS requirement.If youinstall ACPIaware
operating system, such as Windows 98, you fully utilized the power saving
under ACPI.
It is compatible with all other none ACPI operating systems. If you want to
setup ACPI feature under Windows 98, please follow the description below:
Run Windows 98 setup by using setup/p j on the command line for installing
Windows 98 with the ACPI control feature.
If you type setup without the parameter /p j, Windows 98 will be installed as
APM, PnP mode, no ACPI will be used.
For more detail information, please visit the web site of Microsoft. Its address
is:www.microsoft.com/hwtest/.
The major features of ACPI were listed as follows:
■Soft-Off Support
The mainboard’s Soft-Off feature allows you to turn off your computer
using the operating system. This feature requires a power supply witha
soft-off power controller.
■RemoteRing-On
The Remote Ring-On function allows your computer to be turned on
remotely via a modem while it is in sleep mode. This feature is particularly
usefully when you are expecting a fax late night and leave only your
modem on to minimize power consumption. As soon as possible the phone
rings, the modem automatically turn on the system, which answers the
phone and downloads the fax. Then the computer shuts off again, thereby
minimizing its consumption of power. The Remote Ring-On function
requires a power supply with a soft-off power controller.
■RTCAlarm
The RTC alarm feature allows you to preset the computer to wake-up at a
certaintime allowing you to implement a number of useful functions, such
as automatically sending out a fax late at night.

configure your system to suit your requirements. This chapter contains information
on the various jumper settings on your mainboard.
To set up your computer, you must complete the following steps:
■ Step 1 - Set system jumpers
■ Step 2 - Install system RAM modules
■ Step 3 - Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
■ Step 4 - Install expansion cards
■ Step 5 - Connect ribbon cables, cabinet wires, and power supply
■ Step 6 - Set up BIOS software (see Chapter Three)
■ Step 7 - Set up supporting software tools
WARNING: Excessive torque may damage the mainboard. When
using an electric screwdriver on the mainboard, make sure that
the torque is set to the allowable range of 5.0 ~ 8.0kg/cm.
Mainboard components contain very delicate Integrated Circuit
(IC) chips. To prevent static electricity from harming any of the
mainboard’s sensitive components, you should follow some
precautions whenever working on the computer:
1. Unplug the computer when working on the inside.
2. Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the IC
||||chips, leads, or circuitry.
3. Wear an anti-static wrist strap which fits around the wrist.
4. Place components on a grounded anti-static pad or on the bag
that came with the component whenever the components are
separated from the system.

1). Set System Jumpers
Jumpers are used to select the operation modes for your system. Some jump-
ers on the board have three metal pins with each pin representing a different
function. A “1” is written besides pin 1 on jumpers with three pins. To set a
jumper, a black cap containing metal contacts is placed over the jumper pin/s
according to the required configuration. A jumper is said to beshorted when
the black cap has been placed on one or two of its pins. The types of jumpers
used in this manual are shown below:
NOTE: Users are not encouraged to change the jumper settings
not listed in this manual. Changing the jumper settings improperly
may adversely affect system performance.

Installation Procedures
1). System Bus Frequency Select, CPU Ratio Select,
2). CPU Fan Installation
This connector is linked to the CPU fan. When the system is in suspend mode, the
CPU fan will turn off; when it reverts back to full on mode, the fan will turn back on.
Without sufficient air circulation, the CPU may overheat and cause damage to
both the CPU and the mainboard.
Damage may occur to the mainboard and/or the CPU fan if these pins are
incorrectlyused.Thesearenotjumpers,do not place jumper caps over these
pins.

5). Load BIOS Setup Default
Load Fail-Safe Defaults
BIOS defaults contain the most appropriate values of the system parameters
thatallow minimum system performance. The OEM manufacturermay change
the defaults through AMIBCP before the binary image burns into the ROM.
Load Optimized Defaults (recommended)
Selecting this field loads the factory defaults for BIOS and Chipset Features
which the system automatically detects.
1. Formata bootable system floppy diskette by typing the command format
a:/sin command mode.
2. Visit the the web site of the vendor and visit the BIOS Update page in the
related Technical Support section.
3. Select the BIOS file you need and download it to your bootable floppy
diskette.
4. Insert the bootable diskette containing the BIOS file into the floppy dis-
kette drive.
5. Assuming that the floppy diskette drive is A, reboot the system by using
the A: drive. At the A: > prompt, run the BIOS upgraded file by executing
the Flash BIOS utility and the BIOS file with its appropriate extension.
Do not turn off or reset the computer during the flash process or if there is
a problem.
