Overview
Thank you for choosing RIOWORKSTM SDVIA . The SDVIA is a dual FC- GA Socke
t
370 motherboard (M/B) based on the ATX form factor featuring the VIA apollo R
O
133A chips ets. As high performance chipsets built in the M/B, the SDVIA can supports
dual Intel® FC- GA entium III 533~1G+ MHz processor and 100/133MHz C U
Front Side Bus (FSB). In the AG bus performance, it supports AG RO/4X/2X mod
e
and pipelined spilt-transaction long-burst transfers up to 1066 MB/sec. According to
different customers requirements, SDRAM and VCM DRAM can be applied to th
e
SDVIA and the maximum memory size can be up to 2.0GB (1.5GB when FSB=133).
The on-board AMI IDE RAID controller provides the transfer rate up to 100MB/s pe
r
channel and RAID level 0 (Striping), 1 (Mirroring) and 0+1 (Striping+Mirroring)
.
Therefore, with SDVIA, people can gain higher system performance than before. Now
,
Enjoy every feature of SDVIA.

Features Highlight
CPU:
Supports single or dual Intel® FC- GA entium IIITM 533~1G+MHz processor
with 100/133 MHz FSB designed for Socket 370 technology.
Chips t:
Uses the high-performance the VIA® A OLLO RO 133A chipset in the SDVIA.
This chipset contains the various controller inclusive 32-bit Accelerated Graphics
ort (AG ), 32-bit CI bus and 64-bit advanced high-performance DRAM.
Because of its powerful features, C U Front Side Bus (FSB) of SDVIA can
operate easily at 66/100, and at 133 MHz. This chipset also supports Ultra
DMA 33/66 EIDE, USB, and Keyboard / S2 Mouse Interfaces plus RTC /CMOS
on chip.
DRAM:
rovides four 168-pin DIMM system memory sockets that support up to 2.0GB
(1.5GB when FSB=133) of C100 or C133 compliant SDRAM (Synchronous
Dynamic Random Access Memory) and VCM DRAM. You may install 32, 64,
128, 256, 512, 1GMB SDRAM DIMM modules into each socket.
Expansion Slots:
Including six 32-bit CI, one ISA, and one AG RO slots. The CI local bus
throughput can be up to 132 MB/s. The Intel Accelerated Graphics ort (AG )
RO specification provides wide selections of advanced 3D graphics cards
and satisfies the demands of the latest graphic markets. The AG video cards
support data transfer rates up to 1066 MB/s. As SDVIA includes one AG
expansion slot for a bus mastering AG graphics card. For AD and SBA
signaling, SDVIA can supports 133MHz 2X /4X/ RO mode.

channel and RAID level 0 (Striping), 1(Mirroring), 0+1(Striping+Mirroring). The
hardware RAID controller will perform the RAID functions at minimum cost of
sharing the C U bandwidth, comparing to the software RAID, and be ca-
pable of booting from RAID configured Array. It has two channels and can
connect up to four drives.

nector when enable function Modem Ring Resume in the ower Manage-
ment of BIOS setup.
Wak -On-Ring:
Supports Wake-On-Ring activity with external Modem connected with COM
port when enable function Modem Ring Resume in the ower Manage-
ment of BIOS setup.

Overview
D sktop Manag m nt Int rfac (DMI):
Supports DMI through BIOS, which allows hardware to communicate within a
standard protocol creating a higher level of compatibility.
PC 99 Compliant:
The DVIA is fully compliant with the Microsoft® C 99 specification at both the
hardware and BIOS levels. The SDVIA also provides the colored keyboard
( /S 2), mouse( /S 2), Serial/ aralle/USB connector will make your system
installation and maintenance with less fuss.
Ultra DMA 33/66 Bus Mast r IDE:
Comes with an onboard CI Bus Master IDE controller with two connectors that
support four IDE devices in two channels, supports Ultra DMA 66/33, IO Modes
3 and 4 and Bus Master IDE DMA Mode 4, and supports Enhanced IDE devices.
Floppy:
Supports 3.5 (1.44MB or 2.88MB) floppy drive and Japanese standard Floppy
3 mode (3.5 disk drive: 1.44MB, 1.2MB, 720KB) and LS-120 floppy disk drives
(3.5 disk drive: 120 MB). BIOS supports IDE CD-ROM boot-up.
Sup r Multi-I/O:
rovides two high-speed UART compatible serial ports and one parallel port
with E and EC capabilities. UART2 can also be directed from COM2 to the
Infrared Module for wireless connections.
IPMI F atur Conn ctor:
The I MI (Intelligent latform Management Interface) connector can connected
with I MI add-on card which is that inventory, monitoring, logging, and
recoverying control functions are available independent of the main processor,
BIOS, and OS. latform management functions can also made available when
the system is in a powered down state. lease contact your retail for Rioworks
Management Card with this feature.

Getting Help
If a problem arises with yours system during installation or OS operating, you should
Ask your dealer for help first as your system has most likely configured by them. They
always have the best idea and quick response for your symptoms. If your dealer is
near to your locations, you should bring your system to them to have it quickly serviced
instead of attempting to solve the problem by yourself. Beside these, RIOWORKS
also provide some helpful resource to help you.
1. Select RIOWORKSTM website at www.rioworks.com and navigate to the SDVIA
product page that contains links to product updates such as Jumper settings,
BIOS updates, or Manual releases.
2. FAQ sections are often helpful since other users questions are often your own.
3. lease filling the system configuration form which in the RIOWORKS SETU
KIT CD-ROM and e-mail us at: [email protected] and we will try to answer
your questions within 24 hours.

2 FSB Forces to 100/133 MHz 1-3
1. Cl ar R al Tim Clock (RTC) RAM (CLRTC)
The onboard button cell battery powers the CMOS RAM. It contains all the
BIOS setup information. Normally, it is necessary to keep the jumper
connected to pin1 and pin2 (default) to retain the RTC data as shown below.

Note
Should you want to clear the RTC data:
(1) Turn off your computer
(2) Short pin2 and pin3 with jumper for two seconds
(3) Connect pin1 and pin2 with jumper
(4) Turn on your computer
(5) Hold down <Delete> during bootup and enter BIOS setup to re-enter user
preferences.
2. FSB Forc to 133 MHz (Jump r CN6)
This jumpers allow the user to force the FSB frequency of the C U to a specify
value. According to this value, a user can set a range of values in the selection
C U speed setting in the BIOS utility. ( lease also refer to
age 2-34). This is only for Overclocking purpose
CN6 D scription
Close System will detect the FSB frequency of the C U
automatically. (Default)
