FWH(FirmwareHub)Protection
The BIOSofthe mainboardisinside the FWH.SomeseverevirusessuchasCIHvirus
aresodangerousthatitmayoverwritethe BIOSofthe mainboard.If the BIOShas
been damaged,the systemwill be unabletoboot. Weprovide the following solution
whichprotectsthe systemBIOSfrombeing attacked bysuchviruses.
Herearetwochoiceswhichimplementsthisfunction.
1.Setthe jumper(JAV)asclosed,the BIOScan notbe overwritten.
2.Setthe jumper(JAV)asopen,meanwhileset“FlashWriteProtect”asEnabled in
AWARD BIOSCMOSSetup.Inthisway,the BIOScan notbe overwritten,butthe
DMIinformation can be updated.
Refertopage 16 fordetailed information on jumpersetting,and page 26 forrelated
BIOSsetting.
Suspend toRAM
Suspend toRAMisacost-effective,optimalimplementation ofthe Advanced Configu-
ration and PowerInterface(ACPI)1.0specification,whichmakesaPC’s powercon-
sumption drop tothe lowestpossibleleveland enablesquick wakeup.When the
systemisinSuspend-to-RAMstatus,the systemcontextismaintained insystem
memory,the systemconsumesonlyasmall fraction ofthe powerused forfull opera-
tion.Instead ofshutting downthe systemtosavepowerwhen notinuseand then
having torebootlater,Suspend-to-RAMsolution enablesthe systemtoquicklywake
up,restoring all applicationsand features,enabling operation inafewseconds.
Toimplementthisfunction,the following requirmentsareessential:
1.Powersupplyrequirements:Thecurrentof5VSBline ofthe powersupplyshould
be morethan 0.75A.
2.TheBIOSoption“ACPIfunction”shouldbeenabled,and“ACPISuspendType”should
be setasS3inAWARDBIOSCMOSsetup.Refertopage 28 fordetailed information.
Introduction

ManualforWinneX3E
3.AnACPI-enabled operating systemsuchasWindows98 isneeded.
Navigatetothe CD-ROMdrivefromthe MS-DOSCommand Promptand enterthe
following fromthe Win98 directoryon the CD:
D:\SETUP/PJ
(ThismanualassumesthatyourCD-ROMdevicedriverletterisD:)
Windows98 will be installed withACPIenabled.
4.Three ways toenterSuspend-to-RAMstatusunderACPI-enabled Windows98:
lClickStart->Shutdown->Standbytoenablethe systemtoenterSuspend-to-
RAMstatus.
lClickStart->Setup ->ControlPanel->PowerManagement->Advanced and
chooseStandbyitem,the systemwill enterSuspend-to-RAMstatuswhen you
press powerbutton.
lFromPowerManagementPropertiesinControlPanel,setthe latency timein
SystemStandby,the systemwill enterSuspend-to-RAMstatuswhen timeout.
The sameways used topowerup the systemcan be used towakeup the systemfrom
Suspend-to-RAMstatus.Forexample,pushing the powerbutton,through the Wake-on-
LAN,Wake-on-Modemfunction orRTCAlarm.If the keyboardpasswordpower-on func-
tion isenabled,the keyboardpasswordshouldbe used towakeup the systeminstead of
pushing the powerbutton.
UltraATA/66
According tothepreviousATA/IDEharddrivedatatransferprotocol,thesignaling wayto
send datawasinsynchronousstrobemode byusing the rising edge ofthestrobe signal.
The UltraATA/33 protocoldoublesthe bursttransferratefrom16.6MB/sto33.3MB/s,by
using boththe rising and fallingedgesofthe strobesignal,thistimeUltraATA/66 doubles
the UltraATAbursttransferrateonceagain(from33.3MB/sto66.6MB/s)byreducing
setup timesand increasing the strobe rate.The fasterstrobe rateincreasesEMI, which
cannotbeeliminated bythestandard40-pincableused byATAand UltraATA.Toeliminate
thisincreaseinEMI, anew40-pin,80-conductorcableisneeded.Thiscableadds40
additionalground linesbetween eachofthe original40 ground and signallines.The
additional40 lineshelpshieldthe signalfromEMI, reducecrosstalkand improvesignal
integrity.
Chapter1

ManualforWinneX3E
UltraATA/33 introduced CRC(CyclicalRedundancy Check),anewfeatureofIDEthat
providesdataintegrityand reliability.UltraATA/66 usesthesameprocess.TheCRCvalue
iscalculated byboththe hostand the harddrive.Afterthehost-requestdataissent, the
hostsendsitsCRCtotheharddrive,andthe harddrivecomparesittoitsownCRCvalue.
If the harddrivereportserrorstothehost, then the hostretriesthe command containing
the CRC error.
UltraATA/66 technologyincreasesbothperformanceand dateintegrity.Howeverthere
arebasicallyfiverequirementsforyoursystemtorun inUltraATA/66 mode:
1.The systemboardmusthaveaspecialUltraATA/66 detectcircuit, suchas
WinneX3Emainboard.
2.The systemBIOSmustalsosupportUltraATA/66.
3.The operating systemmustbe capableofDMAtransfers.Win95 (OSR2)and
Win98 arecapable.
4.AnUltraATA/66 capable,40-pin,80-conductorcableisrequired.
5.UltraATA/66 compatibleIDEdevicesuchasaharddriveorCD-ROMdrive.
