Based on Intel’ s 810 GMCHset & ICH (82810-DC100 + 82801)
chipsets, the BIW1A is an advanced motherboard that comes with onboard
audio and video capabilities, an audio modem riser slot, a 4MB BIOS that
includes built-in anti-virus protection and UltraDMA/66 technology for
lightning-fast IDE transfer speeds.
The BIW1A is an ATX-sized motherboard, measuring 305mm by 173
mm, and it uses a four-layer printed circuit board. Designed for a Socket 370
CPU, the BIW1A also includes two DIMM sockets for the addition of up to
512MB of memory. The bus system supports speeds of 66MHz to 100MHz,
which means either inexpensive 66MHz or high-performance 100MHz
memory modules can be added to the system.
In addition to its 32-bit onboard sound functionality, the BIW1A comes
with an integrated VGA adapter with 2D and 3D graphics engines and 4MB
of onboard video memory. An audio modem riser slot is included as well as
hardware monitoring and wake-on LAN capabilities. Built-in anti-virus
protection ensures you will maintain a clean operating environment free of
unwanted viruses. The BIW1A also features UltraDMA/66 technology,
which allows for Master IDE transfer rates of up to 66MB/sec.
The BIW1A is a powerful platform that leverages the benefits of a low-
cost system with high-performance functionality, and we are confident you
will see for yourself how convenient this motherboard is when you assemble
your system.
FEATURES
Full-funct on Process ng -
Intel’ s new-generation chipset—t he Intel 810 GMCHset —supports all Socket
370 and compatible processors. The motherboard comes with many excellent
functions built in, such as an audio modem riser slot, onboard 3D graphics,
UltraDMA/66 support and built-in anti-virus protection. The motherboard
enables users to move up to optimized performance at a low cost. Processor

speed configurations are automatically set through the board’ s firmware,
which means changing switch or jumper settings on the motherboard is not
necessary.
H gh Performance -
The board has two DIMM sockets for the installation of 168-pin, 3.3V non-
buffered DIMM memory modules. The DIMM memory modules must be
SDRAM memory chips. The board supports a memory bus of 100/66MHz,
and each DIMM socket can accept modules up to 256MB in capacity for up
to 512MB of total system memory.
3D Graph c VGA & Clear 32-b t Aud o Bu lt In -
ull multimedia function is integrated onto the motherboard, which means
you won’ t need to spend extra money on additional adapters, processors and
cards. Either 2D or 3D graphics can be displayed, and the motherboard
comes with a 4MB onboard SDRAM display cache that supports 1024 X 768
X 16-bit 3D graphics and 1600 X 1200 X 8-bit color 2D graphics. AC’ 97
DAC/ADC, which is built into the audio CODEC, reduces noise and results
in improved audio quality and performance for a signal to noise ratio of
+90dB. These features greatly improve voice synthesis and recognition.
Double or Quadruple IDE Transfer Speeds -
IDE transfers using UltraDMA/33 Bus Master IDE technology can handle
rates of up to 33MB/sec., while UltraDMA/66 technology supports IDE
transfer speeds of 66MB/sec. Best of all, this technology is compatible with
existing ATA-2 IDE specifications, so there is no need to upgrade current
IDE devices or cables.
Slot Expans on Opt ons -
The motherboard has a full set of expansion slots, with five usable slots: four
32-bit PCI slots and one 8/16-bit ISA slot. The ISA slot and one PCI slot
share the same physical area, which means you cannot use both at the same
time.(BIW1A-I only)
Integrated I/O -
With its built-in Windbond I/O chip, this motherboard has a comprehensive
set of integrated I/O ports. The I/O port array features PS/2 keyboard and
mouse ports, a parallel port, two USB ports, two serial ports, a monitor port,
a game/MIDI port, and three audio jacks. You may also use the built-in

BIW1Aseries
~4~
motherboard header to add in an infrared port. In addition, the motherboard
has two PCI-IDE channels and a floppy disk drive interface.
ACPI Ready -
APCI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) technology provides
for more energy saving functions for future operating systems supporting OS
Director Power Management (OSPM) functionality. With these features
implemented in the operating system, your system can be ready around the
clock while meeting all energy-saving standards.
Programmable F rmware -
The motherboard includes a 4MB Award BIOS that allows CPU
parameters to be set through the BIOS. The firmware BIOS includes a new,
easy-to-use interface that gives users more control over their system’ s
performance. The fully programmable firmware provides enhanced system
features and allows users to set power management, CPU and memory timing
levels, as well as LAN and modem wake-up alarms.

is with ISA Slot.
It is easily to differentiate between varieties of BIW1Aseries motherboards.
1.4 POWER OFF CONTROL SOFTWARE
The motherboard design supports the software power off Control feature
through the SMI code in the BIOS under WIN98/95 operating system
environment. It is an ATX form factor, so you should use ATX power
supply.
irst, connect the power switch cable (provided by the ATX case
Supplier) to the connector [ PWBT ] on the motherboard (Please refer to the
following illustration). In the BIOS screen of “POWER MANAGEMENT
SETUP”, choose “User Defined”(or min power saving or Max power saving)
in “POWER MANAGEMENT” and choose “Yes” in “PM Control by APM”.
