1.1.1 Cover Lock
The cover lock is on the left side of the system unit and can be unlocked
with the user's key.
If the keys for the cover lock are lost, a new cover-lock assembly can be
ordered (see the parts section in the Hardware Maintenance Service
pamphlet for the model you are servicing). The new assembly contains two
keys. Use one of the new keys, along with a pair of pliers to force the
old cover lock open.

1.1.2 Power-On Password
A power-on password denies access to the system when the system is
powered-on. To service a system with an active and unknown power-on
password, use the following procedure:
1. Turn off the system unit and all attached options (such as the display
and printer).
2. Unplug all computer power cords from electrical outlets.
3. Remove the system-unit cover.
4. If necessary, temporarily remove any long adapters in expansion slots
1 to 4.
Note: Make a note of which expansion slot you are removing the
adapter from and where any cables are attached to the adapter.
You will need this information later, when you install the
adapters.
5. Locate the speaker connector 1 on the system board.
PICTURE 2
6. Unplug the speaker connector 1, turn it over (180°), and plug it back
in.
7. Reinstall any adapters that were removed.
8. Plug in all computer power cords.
9. Power-on the system.
This deactivates the password.

System-Board Features

1.2.1 Microprocessor
|The microprocessor interprets and carries out instructions. The 80386SX
|Microprocessor is a 32-bit processor with a 16-bit external data bus and
|operates in two modes: real-address mode and virtual-address (protected)
|mode. The processor speed is 16 MHz.
IBM PS/2 Model 65 SX HMR
Microprocessor
1.2.1 - 1

1.2.2 CMOS RAM
|The CMOS RAM provides 64 bytes of storage. The first 50 bytes are used to
|store system-configuration and security information. The real-time clock
|uses the remaining 14 bytes to track the date, time, and battery level.
|The data stored in the real-time clock module is kept active by a built-in
|battery. If the battery is depleted, replace the real-time clock module.
IBM PS/2 Model 65 SX HMR
CMOS RAM
1.2.2 - 1

|1.2.3 CMOS RAM Extension
|A 2KB (KB = 1024 bytes) CMOS RAM extension stores additional configuration
|and system-status information. The data stored in the CMOS RAM extension
|is kept active by a built-in battery when the system is powered-off. If
|the stored data is lost due to a depleted or removed battery, the data can
|be restored using one of the following methods:
|If the user has a customized configuration that uses settings other
| than the default, run the restore configuration program on the user's
| backup copy of the Reference Diskette.
|If the configuration uses the default settings, run the automatic
| configuration program on the Reference Diskette.
IBM PS/2 Model 65 SX HMR
CMOS RAM Extension
1.2.3 - 1

1.2.4 ROM BIOS
|ROM BIOS contains the instructions and routines that control the keyboard,
|diskette drives, fixed disk drive, displays, and other major input/output
|devices in the system. Some adapters have their own ROM modules
|containing extended BIOS routines that work with the system-board ROM
|BIOS. The routines for performing the power-on self-test (POST) are also
|contained in the ROM BIOS.
IBM PS/2 Model 65 SX HMR
ROM BIOS
1.2.4 - 1

1.2.5 VGA
|The VGA is a graphics controller on the system board. The VGA supports
|color and monochrome analog direct-drive displays in a variety of modes,
|including alphanumeric text mode, and all-points-addressable (APA)
|graphics mode.
The VGA supports a maximum of 720-by-400 picture elements (PELs) in the
|text mode and 640-by-480 PELs in the graphics mode. The VGA can support
256 colors or 64 shades of gray at one time. Composite video is not
supported.
One expansion slot on the system board extends farther to the rear of the
system board than the others. This extended expansion slot accommodates
|video adapters that are designed to interface with the system-board VGA.
|Some of these adapters have a display connector of their own. The
extended expansion slot also supports all adapters designed to be
installed in the shorter slots.
IBM PS/2 Model 65 SX HMR
VGA
1.2.5 - 1

1.2.6 Serial Port
The serial port is fully programmable and supports asynchronous
communications. The 25-pin, D-shell connector provides the signals to
drive a device with a standard 25-contact, RS-232 connector. The
connected device is identified by the system configuration as either
SERIAL 1 or SERIAL 2.
|If adapters with serial ports are installed in the system, they can be
|configured from SERIAL 1 to SERIAL 8. The port on the system board can
|only be SERIAL 1 to SERIAL 2.
|Note: Conflicts occur when using multiple communication lines if two or
| more lines are addressed the same. Select the Set configuration
| option on the Reference Diskette. Select View configuration to
| verify that no lines are addressed the same.
IBM PS/2 Model 65 SX HMR
Serial Port
1.2.6 - 1

1.2.7 Parallel Port
The parallel port allows the attachment of devices that accept eight bits
of parallel data at standard transistor-transistor-logic (TTL) levels.
|The port has a 25-pin, D-shell connector and is designed primarily for
|printers. However, the port can be used as an input/output port for any
|device or application that matches the input/output capabilities of the
|port. When adapters with additional parallel ports are installed, the
|system can support three different devices, each addressed separately as
|PARALLEL 1, PARALLEL 2, or PARALLEL 3.
Note: Conflicts occur when two or more devices have the same address.
Select the Set configuration option on the Reference Diskette.
Select View configuration to verify that no lines are addressed the
same.

Parallel Port
1.2.7 - 1

1.2.8 Diskette-Drive Controller
|The controller connects to the diskette drives through a single 40-pin
|connector on the system board. Signals and voltages are supplied through
|the diskette-drive cable that plugs into the connector. These signals and
|voltages can operate two IBM 3.5-inch diskette drives.
IBM PS/2 Model 65 SX HMR
Diskette-Drive Controller
1.2.8 - 1

1.2.9 Keyboard Connector and Pointing-Device Connector
|The two 6-pin connectors at the rear of the system board are for
|connecting a keyboard and a pointing device (mouse). The keyboard
|connector is marked with a small keyboard figure molded into the back
|panel; the unmarked connector is for the pointing device. The interface
|logic is the same for both. A fuse on the system board protects the
|system board, keyboard, and pointing device.
