Overview
The S1573S is a quality, high performance mainboard designed for Intel
Pentium microprocessors. This mainboard utilizes the Intel 430TX
chipset and can support CPU speeds of 75MHz through 233MHz. The
S1573S will also support the Cyrix M1/6x86 and M2/6x86MX CPU’s,
the AMD K5/K6 CPU’s, and the Intel multimedia Pentium P55C and
P54CTB (MMX Overdrive) CPU’s.
The S1573S’s PCI Local Bus provides high performance capabilities
that are ideal for a wide range of demanding applications such as CAD,
CAM, CAE, networking, multi-user environments, database manage-
ment, desktop publishing, image processing and 3D animation.
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,
onboard high speed I/O, and support for pipeline-burst SRAM.

INTRO
Flexibility and expandability have been designed into the S1573S. With
I/O and drive controller support built onboard, the five PCI and three
ISA slots (one ISA and one PCI as a shared slot) are free for numer-
ous add-on expansion cards.
Remember to take a look at TYAN Computer’s web site located at

products along with FAQs, distributors list, drivers and CMOS setting
explanations. If you have a tech support question please contact us at

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 damag-
ing 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 alter the
settings on your motherboard.
While we have alerted you to potential dangers in several
places in this 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
delivering a burn or 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.

TechnicalSupport
If a problem arises with your system, you should first turn to your
dealer for help. 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 able to 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 yourself (which can have expensive conse-
quences). If your dealer is unable to assist you:
Try our web page – http:// www.tyan.com,
or user newsgroup – alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.tyan.

Board Installation
Unpacking
The mainboard package should contain the following:
•S1573SMainboard
•One IDE 40 pin cable
•One 34 pin floppy cable
•User’s Manual
The mainboard contains sensitive electric components which can be
easily damaged by static electricity, so the mainboard should be left in
its original packaging until it is ready to be installed.
With the power supply plugged in and turned off, touch an unpainted
area of the system chassis immediately before handling the mainboard
or any component. Doing so discharges any static charge your body
may have acquired.
After opening the mainboard carton, extract the system board-holding it
by its edges-and place it on a grounded anti-static surface, component
side up. Inspect the board for damage. Press down on any of the
