CHAPTER 3 BIOS SETUP
Award’s ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program that allows user to modify the basic system configuration and settings. The modified data will be stored in a battery-backed CMOS RAM so that these data will be retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM stay unchanged unless there is configuration change in the system, such as hard drive replacement or new equipment is installed.
3.1 Running AWARD BIOS
The Setup Utility is stored in the BIOS ROM. When the power of the computer system is turned on, a screen message appears to give you an opportunity to call up the Setup Utility; while the BIOS will enter the Power On Self Test (POST) routines. The POST routines perform various diagnostic checks while initializing the board hardware. If the routines encounter an error during the tests, the error will be reported in either of the two different ways, hear a series of short beeps or see an error message on the screen display. There are two kinds of error: fatal or non-fatal. The system can usually continue to boot up sequence with the non-fatal errors. Non-fatal error messages usually appear on the screen along with the following instructions: “ Press Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the boot up sequence. After the POST routines are completed, the following message appears: “ Press DEL to enter SETUP ” Entering Setup Turn on the power of the computer system and press ACS－6568VE4 User’s Manual 8 3.2 CMOS Setup Utility To access the AWARD BIOS SETUP program, press the CMOS Setup Utility – Copyright © 1984-2001 Award Software Standard CMOS Features Frequency/Voltage Control Advanced BIOS Features Load Fail-Safe Defaults Advanced Chipset Features Load Optimized Defaults Integrated Peripherals Set Supervisor Password Power Management Setup Set User Password PnP/ PCI Configurations Save & Exit Setup PC Health Status Exit Without Saving Esc: Quit : Select Item F10: Save & Exit Setup Time, Date, Hard Disk Type....

CMOS Setup Utility – Copyright © 1984-2001 Award Software Frequency/ Voltage Control Auto Detect DIMM/PCI Clk Enabled Spread Spectrum Disabled CPU Host /PCI Clock /PC133 Default CPU Clock Ratio X3 Auto Dect DIMM/PCI Clk: This item allows you to enable / disable auto detect DIMM / PCI Clock. The settings are “Enabled” and “Disabled”. Spread Spectrum Modulated: When the system clock generator pulses, the extreme values of the pulse generate excess EMI. Enabling pulse spectrum spread modulation changes the extreme values from spikes to flat curves, thus reducing EMI. This benefit may in some cases be outweighed by problems with timing-critical devices, such as a clock-sensitive SCSI device. CPU Host Clock/PCI Clock/ PC133: This item allows you to select the CPU Host / PCI Clock. The item you can select including 100/33MHz, 103/34MHz, 110/34MHZ, 115/38MHz and Default. CPU Clock Ratio: This item allows you to set up the CPU clock ratio. This function depends on your CPU specification and the change might not take affect due to the CPU specification limitation.
