Introduction
Overview
The S1832DL Tiger 100 is a quality, high performance mainboard
designed for dual Intel Pentium II microprocessors. This mainboard
utilizes the Intel 440BX AGPset and can support CPU speeds of
233MHz through 450MHz, and host bus speeds of 66MHz to 100MHz.
The S1832DL mainboard, with built-in AGP slot, provides high perfor-
mance capabilities that are ideal for a wide range of demanding appli-
cations such as CAD, CAM, CAE, desktop publishing, 3D animation,
and video production.
This integrated system board achieves high reliability with numerous
features and yet is small enough to be supported in an ATX form
factor. Some of the features included are onboard dual channel PCI
PIO, Bus Master IDE and UltraDMA/33, onboard floppy controller,
and onboard high speed I/O.
Flexibility and expandability have been designed into the Tiger 100.
With I/O and drive controller support built onboard, the one AGP slot,

products along with FAQs, distributors list, drivers, and BIOS setting
explanations.
Icons
In order to help you navigate this manual and set up your system, we
have added several icons to our format.
This icon alerts you to particularly important details regard-
ing the setup or maintenance of your system. This icon
often appears next to information that may keep you from
damaging your board or system. While we will often point out the most
vital paragraphs in a chapter, you should always read every word in the
text. Failing to do so can lead to exasperation and expense.
Wherever possible, we have included step-by-step instruc-
tions for setting up your system, which are indicated by
this icon. However, it is in your best interest to read an
entire section (and perhaps the entire manual) before you begin to
fiddle with your motherboard.
While we have alerted you to potential dangers in several
places in the manual with this icon, these warnings should
not be regarded as the whole of your safety regimen. Never
forget that computers are electrical devices, and are capable of deliver-
ing a shock. Prevent damage to yourself and to your board: always
ensure that your system is turned off and unplugged whenever you are
working with it, and that you are equipped with a static safety device.

Technical Support
If a problem arises with your system, you should turn to your dealer for
help first. Your system has most likely been configured by them, and
they should have the best idea of what hardware and software your
system contains. Hence, they should be of the most assistance. Further,
if you purchased your system from a dealer near to you, you can
actually bring your system in to them to have it serviced, instead of
attempting to do so yourself (which can have expensive consequences).

How to install our products right...the first time.
What’s the first thing I should do?
The first thing you should do is read this user’s manual. It contains
important information which will make configuration and setup much
easier.
The next step is to properly ground yourself. First, unplug the power
from your computer case and then touch the metal casing of the power
supply or any metal part on the computer case. This will discharge any
electricity from your body. Take the motherboard out of the cardboard
box and static bag, holding it by its edges, and place it on a grounded
anti-static surface, component side up. Inspect the board for damage.
DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN
DAMAGED!
Press down on any of the socket ICs if it appears that they are not
properly seated (the board should still be on an anti-static mat). Do not
touch the bottom of the board. Remember, don’t take any electronic
device out of its protective bag until you are ready to actually install it
into the computer case. If you don’t discharge yourself and you zap the
motherboard or adapter card, problems may not arise immediately
because electrostatic discharge damage, unlike physical damage, causes
the device to fail over time.
Installthemotherboardinto your case.
Follow the instructions provided by the case manufacturer for proper
installation guidelines. TYAN recommends that you use only one screw
to hold down the motherboard. The rest of the mounting holes should be
used for the plastic standoffs. If your case does not have a hole for a
standoff, simply cut off the bottom of the plastic standoff so that the flat
portion rests on the metal. The adapter cards and the screws holding
them down will keep your board flat. The fastening screw should not
short any of the traces on the motherboard. Make certain that you do
not overtighten the screw, as it will damage the motherboard and
possibly break internal traces in the surrounding area. The hole you

should use is located at the top-center of the board where the adapter
cards are fastened to the case.
Plug in the power connector as shown.
The photos below show the ATX power connector before (Figure 1) and
after (Figure 2) it has been plugged in.
The plastic clip on the power connector should lock over the plastic tab
on the onboard connector. You shouldn’t be able to plug the power
connector in any other way but just to be safe, make sure it looks like
Figure 2 above. Make certain that you do not miss any pins because, if
you do, you will void your warranty and cause damage to yourself or
your motherboard when you turn the system on. After connecting the
power, make sure the connector is seated firmly into its socket so it will
not become loose or fall off when the computer is jostled or moved.
Note: Tyan recommends using an ATX power supply that con-
forms to industry standard revision 2.01.

Next, connect your IDE cables (if you’re using IDE hard drives).
The colored stripe on the cable should face toward the top of your
chassis, or toward the big white B printed on the motherboard.
In Figure 3 you can see
how the IDE cables
should look when they
are connected to your
hard drive. Notice how
Pin 1 (denoted by a red
stripe) is connected so
that it is next to the
power connector of the
drive. In most cases,
this is the proper way of
connecting your IDE
cable to the hard drive.
Figure 4 shows the IDE
cable properly con-
nected to the
motherboard.

Contact your hard disk drive manufacturer or documentation for more
information.
Some symptoms of incorrectly installed HDDs are:
•Hard disk drives are not auto-detected: may be a Master/Slave
problem or a bad IDE cable. Contact your vendor.
•Hard Disk Drive Fail message at bootup: may be a bad cable or
lack of power going to the drive.
•No video or beeps on bootup: usually means the cable is on
backwards.
•Hard drive lights are constantly on: bad IDE cable or defective
drives/motherboard. Try another HDD.
•Hard drives do not power up: check power cables and cabling.
May also be a bad power supply or IDE drive.
Now that you have installed your IDE drives, your floppies are next.
Pin 1 on the floppy cable is usually denoted by a red or colored stripe
down one side of the cable (see Figure 5). Most of the current floppy
drives on the market require that the colored stripe be positioned so that
it is right next to the power connector. In most cases, there will be a key
pin on the cable which will force you to connect the cable properly.

Drive A: is usually attached to the end of the cable with the twist in it.
Drive B: is usually connected to the middle of the cable. Refer to your
installation instructions or call your dealer if you are unsure about
attaching floppy drives. Refer to Figure 5 on the previous page for a
detailed anatomy of the floppy cable. Remember, you can only have 2
floppy drives connected at any given time.
The color stripe on the cable should face toward the top of your
chassis, or toward the big white B printed on the motherboard. Please
refer to your documentation for proper installation, or see Figure 4 on
page 13.
Some symptoms of incorrectly installed floppies are:
•Floppy drives are not detected: usually caused by faulty cables,
backward cables, or a bad floppy or motherboard. Try another
single floppy drive to verify the problem or try another cable. Also,
check to see if the onboard floppy is enabled in the BIOS.
•Floppy Drive Fail message at bootup: the cable, floppy, or
motherboard may be faulty. Try another cable or floppy drive to
verify.
•Light on the floppy is on constantly: a dead give-away that the
cable is on backwards. Reverse the cable at the motherboard end
and try again.
Next are the Com and Printer ports.
Warning: When plugging in your keyboard and mouse, or when
plugging anything into a serial or Com port, make sure that the power is
off. Connecting these devices and ports while the power is on is called
“hot plugging,” and may damage your system.
Figure 6 at the top of the next page shows the ATX double row connec-
tors on this board. The Com and Printer ports, as well as the other
ports, are labeled.

Note: Only TYAN cables will work on this motherboard. If you are
using an existing case with old cables, your system will not function
properly. Use only TYAN-approved cables.
Connecting the USB and PS/2 ports.
This board includes ports for USB, PS/2 mouse, and PS/2 keyboard
devices. The location of these ports is shown in Figure 6 above. Note
that, for this board, the PS/2 mouse port is the upper PS/2 port, and the
PS/2 keyboard port is the lower PS/2 port.
The PS/2 connectors are probably quite familiar to you. The USB
connectors, however, may be foreign. The USB (Universal Serial Bus)
is a versatile port. This one port type can function as a serial, parallel,
mouse, keyboard, or joystick port. It is fast enough to support video
transfer, and is capable of supporting up to 127 daisy-chained periph-
eral devices. Close-ups of the USB connector, as well as of the USB
and PS/2 ports, are on the following page.

Installingyouradd-incardsisrelativelysimple but...
there are a few rules you need to follow when plugging in a card. In
order to assure proper operation and a quick installation, adhere to these
guidelines:
•If you are going to install a PCI-Bus interface card on your system,
be aware that any one of the two PCI slots can support a Master
or Slave device.
•NEVER force a card into a slot. If it doesn’t fit, look at the socket
on the computer to make sure there are no wires or other
obstructions to the slot.
•NEVER plug an ISA card into a PCI slot or a PCI card in an ISA
slot. You will void your warranty and damage your system board if
you do this.
•When plugging the card in, especially when installing long cards,
try to push the entire card in at one time. Don’t force one end of
the card into the socket first and then the other. This will create a

rocking motion between the card and the slot and it will damage the
pins within the socket.
•Make sure that the cards are seated securely into the slots.
•Before turning on the system, make sure no cards are touching
each other or are shorting.
If you follow these basic guidelines, there shouldn’t be any problems
with installation. However, if you do encounter any problems, have a
qualified professional install your cards for you or contact your card
manufacturer.
Remember, always read the manuals and installation notes that come
with the adapter cards. They contain important information which will
help you install the components right, the first time.
Next, you need to install your memory.
Since TYAN boards are manufactured with performance in mind, you
should use add-in components that match. Some DIMM modules may
seem to be high quality because of name or feel but that does not
guarantee real-world usability. Some cheaper or OEM memory may
have brand-name components, but they may be on inferior or substan-
dard parts which do not meet the critical tolerances our products
require. Because of this, your memory may not work correctly in a
TYAN board though it may work well in a competitor’s board. This is
because many of our competitors do not adhere to the strict tolerances
required for high performance. If you buy a TYAN board, you are
getting the best system available. To make installation easy and trouble
free, get high quality parts. Some brands we recommend are Advantage
Memory, Corsair Microsystems, Millenium, Kingston Memory, QesTec
Incorporated, Unigen, Micron Technology, and Crucial Technology.
These DIMMs have proven to be very stable on our boards and perform
extremelywell.

Figure 9
To install your DIMMs, line your module up so that the pins fit into the
slot. There is only one way that your DIMM can fit properly. Make sure
that the short row of pins is lined up with the short gap in the DIMM
slot. Figure 9 shows how to sit the DIMM into its slot. To insert the
DIMM, push down vertically on the module with even force, as shown
in the photo. Do not shove one end in first; doing so will bend the
DIMM pins.
To lock the DIMM into place, push the plastic clips on either end of the
slot onto the notches in the ends of the DIMM (see Figure 10 on the
following page). To remove your DIMM, simply pull the clips back,
and pull up on the module.

Place the DIMMs in an anti-static bag as soon as you remove them to
avoid static damage.
Finally, install your CPU.
Pentium II processors (233 through 450MHz) can be used on the Tiger
100. Please refer to pages 29-30 for the correct CPU jumper settings for
your board. Remember:
•The CPU is a sensitive electronic component and it can easily be
damaged by static electricity. Do not touch the CPU pins with your
fingers.
•Before the CPU is installed, the motherboard must be placed on a
flat surface. You should be able to insert the CPU with minimal, but
firm, pressure. Do not press down hard on the CPU.
Currently, Intel produces two types of Pentium II processors: the active
(or boxed) processor and the passive processor (see Figures 11 and 12
below). These two types of processors are essentially the same in
design; the only difference lies in their cooling methods. The active
