3 Award BIOS Setup This chapter describes how to configure the BIOS for the PCM-6896 board. CHAPTER.
Starting setup The A ward BIOS is started immediately when you first turn on the computer . The BIOS reads, system configuration information in CMOS RAM and begins the process of checking out the system and configuring it through the power-on self test (POST).
Getting help Press F1 to pop up a small help window . On screen information describes the appropriate keys to use and the possible selections for the highlighted item.
Setup keys These keys helps you navigate in Setup: Up arrow Move to previous item Down arrow Move to next item Left arrow Move to the item in the left hand Right arrow Move to the item in the right ha.
Main Setup Menu Standard CMOS Features Use this menu for basic system configuration. (Date, time, IDE, etc.) Advanced BIOS Features Use this menu to set the advanced features available on your system. Advanced Chipset Features Use this menu to change the values in the chipset registers and optimize your system’ s performance.
PnP/PCI Configuration This entry appears is your system supports PnP/PCI. PC Health Status This menu allows you to set the shutdown temperature for your system. Frequency/V oltage Control Use this menu to specify your settings for frequency/ voltage control.
Standard CMOS Features This standard setup menu allows users to configure system components such as the date, time, hard disk drive, floppy drive, display , and memory . Online help for each field can be accessed by pressing F1. Date and Time Configuration The BIOS determines the day of the week from the other date information.
If you do not want to select drive type AUTO, other methods of selecting the drive type are available: 1.Match the specifications of your installed IDE hard drive(s) with the preprogrammed values for drive types 1 through 45. 2.Select USER and enter values into each drive parameter field.
- LBA (Logical Block Addressing): During drive access, the IDE controller transforms the data address described by sector , head, and cylinder number into a physical block address, significantly improving data transfer rates. For drives with greater than 1024 cylinders.
Halt On During the power-on-self-test (POST), the computer stops if the BIOS detects a hardware error . Y ou can tell the BIOS to ignore certain errors during POST and continue the boot-up process. These are the selections: No errors : POST does not stop for any errors.
Extended Memory Above the 1-MB boundary . Early IBM personal computers could not use memory above 1 MB, but current PCs and their software can use extended memory .
Advanced BIOS Features The displayed configuration is based on the manufacturer's SETUP DEF AUL TS settings. Virus W arning When enabled, you receive a warning message if a program (specifically , a virus) attempts to write to the boot sector or the partition table of the hard disk drive.
CPU Internal Cache/External Cache Cache memory is additional memory that is much faster than conventional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type on up contain internal cache memory , and most, but not all, modern PCs have additional (external) cache memory .
Swap Floppy Drive This field is effective only in systems with two floppy drives. Selecting enabled assigns physical drive B to logical drive A, and physical drive A to logical drive B. Boot Up Floppy Seek When Enabled, the BIOS tests (seeks) floppy drives to determine whether they have 40 or 80 tracks.
T ypematic Rate Setting- Key strokes repeat at a rate determined by the keyboard controller . When enabled, the typematic rate and typematic delay can be selected. The choice: Enabled/Disabled T ypematic Rate (Chars/Sec)- Sets the number of times a second to repeat a key stroke when you hold the key down.
HDD S.M.A.R.T Capability Hard disk drives have built in problem detection capability . If a foreseen problem is about to take place, the computer will give a you a warning signal. The choice: Enable, Disable Report No FDD For WIN 95- Wheather report no FDD for Win 95 or not.
Advanced Chipset Features SDRAM CAS Latency Time When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS latency depends on the DRAM timing. Do not reset this field from the default value specified by the system designer . SDRAM Cycle T ime T ras/T rc Select the number of SCLKs for an access cycle.
SDRAM RAS Precharge Time If an insufficient number of cycles is allowed for the RAS to accumulate its charge before DRAM refresh, the refresh may be incomplete and the DRAM may fail to retain date. Fast gives faster performance; slow gives more stable performance.
AGP Graphics Aperture Size Select the size of Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) aperture. The aperture is a portion of the PCI memory address range dedicated for graphics memory address space. Host cycles that hit the aperture range are forwarded to the AGP without any translation.
RAS-to-CAS Override This item allows you to insert a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe signals, used when Onboard display cache is written to, read from, or refreshed. During by CAS#L T , this will depend on the Onboard Display Cache CAS# Latency setting.
Integrated Peripherals On-Chip Primary PCI IDE The system chipset contains a PCI IDE interface with support for two IDE channels. Select Enabled to activate the primary and/or secondary IDE interface. Select Disabled to deactivate this inter- face, if you install a primary and/or secondary add-in IDE interface.
IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave UDMA Ultra DMA/33 implementation is possible only if your IDE hard drive supports it and the operating environment includes a DMA driver (W indows 95 OSR2 or a third-party IDE bus master driver). If your hard drive and your system software both support Ultra DMA/33, select Auto to enable BIOS support.
Onboard FDC Controller Select Enabled if your system has a floppy disk controller (FDC) installed on the system board and you wish to use it. If you install an add-in FDC or the system has no floppy drive, select Disabled in this field.
Onboard Serial Ports (1, 2,3,4) Normally , the main board’ s I/O chips will occupy a certain portion of memory space. For each I/O device the computer provides an I/O address. The more devices attached the more address needed to organize the memory storage areas.
W atch Dog Timer Y ou can enable the system watch-dog timer , a hardware timer that generates either an NMI or a reset when the software that it monitors does not respond as expected each time the watch dog polls it ( select the time period in a separate field ) The choice: 10 sec, 20 sec, 40 sec, 1 min, 2 min, 4 min.
