CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
The mainboard is a high-performance personal computer mainboard based
on the Pentium II processor. The mainboard uses the highly integrated VIA
APOLLO PRO 133 (VT82C693A) AGPset which optimize the system
bandwidth and concurrency with the implementation of Quad port
Acceleration (QPA).QPA provides 4-port concurrent arbitration of the
processor bus, graphics, PCI bus and SDRAM. The VT82C596B chipset
integrates all system control functions such as ACPI (Advanced Configuration
and Power Interface). The ACPI provides more Energy Saving Features for
the OSPM (OS Direct Power Management) function. The VT82C596B chipset
also improves the IDE transfer rate by supporting Ultra DMA /66 IDE that
transfers data at the rate of 66 MB/s.

2.3 INSTALL CPU
2.3.1 For Celeron, Pentium II & III CPU
The motherboard provides a Single Edge Contact (SEC) slot for processor
packaged in an SEC cartridge. Follow these steps to install CPU:
Mount the Universal Retention Mechanism (URM) & Insert the CPU :
( The illustration is just for reference)
This URM was designed to accommodate 3 types of CPU Form Factor.
(SECC,SECCII&SEPP). For Example : Pentium II/III & Celeron family.
Note : Please put a soft pad under M/B before the installation of URM.
Installation for SECC CPU :
(1) Leave space below each mounting hole for the fastener to protrude
through the hole.
(2) Position URM on the M/B next to the slot1 connector.
(3) Push down retainer pin into respective fastener to secure URM onto the
M/B.
(4) Push CPU into URM to contact with slot 1.
(5) Make sure latching portion of CPU engaged with windows ledge of URM.
Installation for SECC II or SEPP CPU :
(1) Same as step (1) of SECC.
(2) Same as step (2) of SECC.
(3) Same as step (3) of SECC.
(4) Same as step (4) of SECC.
(5) Snap in 2 clips into side windows of URM to secure SEPP CPU.
1: Retention Mechanism
2: Clip
3: Retainer Pin
4: Fastener

If there is a fan on the CPU, Please plug in the fan cable to the three pin fan
connector on the motherboard ( CPUFAN)
2.3.2 For Socket 370 CPU
Before installing CPU, make sure the power is ff. Locate the level bar on the
PGA370ZIF socket. Push level bar away from the socket and pull upward 90
degrees. Insert the CPU into the socket. Make sure the notch of the CPU
corresponds with the white dot on the ZIF socket (the corner without pin
socket).Do not push in the CPU. Make sure all pins are aligned with the CPU
socket. On the level bar.

The system boot will not stop for a disk error; it will stop
for all other errors.
All, But Disk/Key The system boot will not stop for a keyboard or disk
error; it will stop for all other errors.
Memory
The category is display-only which is determined by POST (Power on Self
Test) of the BIOS.
SuperTek
19
Base Memory
The POST will determine the amount of base (or conventional) memory
installed in the system. The value of the base memory is typically 512K for
systems with 512K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640K for system
with 640K r more memory installed on the motherboard.
Extended Memory
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during the
POST. This is the amount of memory located above IMB in the CPU's
memory address map.
Other Memory
This refers to the memory located in the 640K to 1024K address space. This
is memory that can be used for different applications. DOS uses this area to
load device drivers in an effort to keep as much base memory free for
application programs. The BIOS is the most frequent user of this RAM area
since this is where it shadows RAM.

3.3 BIOS Features Setup

When this item is enabled, the Award BIOS will monitor the boot sector and
partition table of the hard disk drive for any attempt at modification. If an
attempt is made, the BIOS will halt the system and the following error
message will appear. Afterwards, if necessary, you will be able to run an
antivirus program to locate and remove the problem before any damage is
done.

NOTE:
Many disk diagnostic programs which attempt to access the boot sector table
can cause the above warning message. If you will be running such a

tracks.
Enabled

This entry allows you to select how the gate A20 is handled. The gate A20 is
a device used to address memory above 1 Mbytes. Initially, the gate A20 was

When the typematic rate is enabled, the BIOS will report as before, but it will
then wait a moment, and, if the key is still down, it will begin the report that
the
key has been depressed repeatedly. For example, you would use such a
feature to accelerate cursor movements with the arrow keys.

3.4 Supervisor/ User Password Setting
You can set either supervisor or user password, or both of then. The
differences between are:
supervisor password : can enter and change the options of the setup menus.
user password: just can enter but do not have the right to change the options
of the setup menus.
When you select this function, the following message will appear at the center
of the screen to assist you in creating a password.
ENTER PASSWORD:
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>. The
password typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS
memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again
and press <Enter>. You may also press <ESC> to abort the selection and not
enter a password.
To disabled a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter
the password. A message will confirm the password will be disabled. Once
the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every
time you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from
changing any part of your system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to
request a password every time your system is rebooted. This would prevent
unauthorized use of your computer.
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features
Setup Menu and its Security option (see Section 4) .If the Security option is
set to "System", the password will be required both at boot and at entry to
Setup. If set to "Setup", prompting only occurs when trying to enter Setup.
