This chapter explains how to configure the motherboard’s hardware. Before using your
computer, make sure all jumpers and DRAM modules are set correctly. Refer to this
chapter whenever in doubt.
CPU Speed Selection
In this motherboard, jumperless feature is implemented such that no jumper is required to
be set for different type of CPU installed.
Notice:
1. Be sure to save the CMOS setting when exit the CMOS.
2. The CPU is frequency multiplier locked, no CPU speed change will be seen
even if the frequency multiplier setting in CMOS setup is changed.

Hardware Setup
To Install DDR DIMMs
1. Locate the DDR DIMM sockets.
2. Holding the DDR DIMM by the edges, remove it from its antistatic package.
3. Make sure the clips at either end of the socket are pushed away from the socket.
4. Position the DDR DIMM above the socket. Align the two small notches in the
bottom edge of the DDR DIMM with the keys in the socket.
5. Insert the bottom edge of the DDR DIMM into the socket.
6. When the DDR DIMM is seated, push down on the top edge of the DDR DIMM until
the retaining clips at the ends of the socket snap into place. Make sure the
clips are firmly in place.
Turn system power off before installing and removing any
device, otherwise you’ll cause the system damage.

Hardware Setup
Installing a New Processor
An upgrade processor can dramatically increase general system speed and performance.
Most microprocessor upgrade kits include the following items:
• Microprocessor chip
• Installation instructions and technical data
Before installing the processor, please refer to the installation notes that
available with the CPU package.
To Install a Processor to ZIF Socket
To install the processor, follow these steps:
1. If the system microprocessor is already on the motherboard socket, you need to
remove it from the motherboard socket. The socket is a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
socketwhichhasa metal arm at one side. Carefully grasp this arm, move it horizontally
away from the socket and lift it up. Eventually you will be able to lift the chip straight
up out of the socket. Be careful not to bend any pins.
Be careful not to bend any of the pins when removing the microprocessor
chip from its socket. The microprocessor chip can be permanently damaged.
2. Unpack the new microprocessor chip.
3. Carefully align the processor with the correct orientation to the socket on the
motherboard.
4. Carefully insert the processor into the socket, and move the metal arm downward to
replace it in its original position.
Connect the Cooling Fan Connector
The CPU should always have a Heat Sink and cooling fan attached to prevent
overheating.
Please follow the setup to install the Heat Sink and cooling fan. Then connect the
processor fan cable to the fan connector that located on the motherboard near the
processor and ensure the fan can operate. Otherwise the CPU can overheat and cause
damage to both CPU and motherboard.
Setting the Processor Speed
After you install the processor into the motherboard, set the processor speed by CMOS
setup.

BIOS Setup
This chapter discusses Award’s Setup Program built into the ROM BIOS. The Setup
Program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This special information
is then stored in battery-backed RAM, which retains the setup information when the
power is turned off.
Starting Setup
The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you turn on the computer. The BIOS
reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process of checking
out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating
system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating
system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup Program can be activated :
1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or
2. By pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears briefly at
the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self Test )
Press DEL to enter SETUP
If the message disappears before you can respond and you still wish to enter Setup,
restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the “RESET” button
on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt>,
and <Delete> keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does
not reset, an error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to ...
PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, DEL TO ENTER SETUP
Getting Help
Press F1 to pop up a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and
the possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window press <Esc> or
the F1 key again.
In Case of Problems
If, after making and saving system changes with the Setup Program, you discover that
your computer does not reset, use the Award BIOS defaults to override the CMOS
settings.

11
BIOSSetup
Main Menu
Once you enter the Award BIOS CMOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu will appear on the
screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup functions and two exit
choices. Use the arrow keys to select among the items and press <Enter> to accept and
enter the sub-menu.

This section describes how to configure the PCI bus system. This section covers some
very technical items and it is recommended that only experienced users should make
any changes to the default settings.
PC Health Status

Frequency/Voltage Control
This section allows you to set CPU Speed.
Set Password
You can set password, When you select this function, the following message will
appear at the center of the screen to assist you in creating a password.
ENTER PASSWORD:
Typethe password, up to eight characters in length, and press<Enter>. The new password
will clear the previously entered password from the CMOS memory. You will be asked to
confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>. You may also
press <Esc> to abort the selection and operate without a password.
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the password.
A message will be displayed to confirm that the password is disabled.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
Once the password is disabled, the system will reset and you can enter the Setup
Program freely.
When a password is enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to enter
setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any setting of your system
configuration.
In addition, when a password is enabled, you can require the BIOS to request a password
every time your system is rebooted. This would further prevent unauthorized use of
your computer.
The password requirement is defined by the Security Option of the BIOS Features Setup
Menu. If the Security Option is set to “System”, the password will be required both at
resetting and at entering setup. If the option is set to “Setup”, the prompt only appears
when you try to enter setup.

15
Flash Update Procedure
A program AWDFLASH.EXE is included in the utility diskette or CD (X:\Utility\
AWDFLASH.EXE). The user is recommended to follow the procedure below to update
the flash BIOS.
(X: your CD driver letter).
1. Create a DOS-bootable floppy diskette. Copy the new BIOS file (just obtained or
downloaded) and the utility program AWDFLASH.EXE to the diskette.
2. Allow the PC system to boot from the DOS diskette.
3. At the DOS prompt, key in
AWDFLASH
and hit <ENTER>
4. Enter the file name of the new BIOS.
5. The question: “Do you want to save BIOS (Y/N)” is displayed.
Key in “N” if there is no need to save the existing BIOS content..
Key in “Y” if a backup copy of the existing BIOS is needed.
(A file name has to be assigned to the existing BIOS binary file.)
6. The question : “Are you sure to program (Y/N)” is displayed.
Key in “Y”
7. Wait until the flash-update is completed.
8. Power down the PC system.
9. Restart the PC.
Warning:
DO not turn off or RESET the computer during the flash process.
If you are unsure how to upgrade the BIOS, it is best to take your
computer to an Authorized Service Center and have a trained
technician do the work for you.
