The Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. The changed information is then stored in battery-backed RAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off. 4.2 Starting Setup The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating system. While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways: 1. By pressing immediately after switching the system on, or 2. by pressing the key when the following message appears briefly at the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self Test). Press DEL to enter SETUP. If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" button on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing , , and keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to... TM ® NOVA-3710/3710SV Socket 370 Celeron & Pentium III 31 Multimedia & Dual VGA , Ethernet Embedded Board PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, DEL TO ENTER SETUP Using Setup In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press to select, use the PageUp and PageDown keys to change entries, press for help and press to quit. The following table provides more detail about how to navigate in the Setup program using the keyboard.

To exit the Help Window press or the F1 key again. If, after making and saving system changes with Setup, you discover that your computer no longer is able to boot, the Award BIOS supports an override to the CMOS settings which resets your system to its defaults. The best advice is to alter settings which you thoroughly understand. We strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the chipset default settings. These default settings were carefully chosen by both Award and your systems manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change to the chipset setup has the potential of causing you to use the override.

Watch-Dog Timer The Watchdog Timer is a device ensures the standalone systems can always recover from abnormal conditions that cause the system to crash. These conditions may result from an external EMI or a software bug. When the system stops working, hardware on the board will perform hardware reset (cold boot) to bring the system back to a known state. Three I/O ports control the operation of Watch-Dog Timer. Set Watchdog Time period 440 (hex) Write Enable the refresh the Watchdog Timer. 440 (hex) Write Disable the Watch-Dog Timer. Prior to enable the Watch-Dog Timer, user has to set the time-out period. The resolution of the timer is 1 minute and the range of the timer is from 1 min to 255 min. You need to send the time-out value to the I/O port – 440H, and then enable it by write data from the same I/O port – 440H( value is 01h-ffh ). This will activate the timer that will eventually time out and reset the CPU board. To ensure that this reset condition won’t occur, the Watch-Dog Timer must be periodically refreshed by write the same I/O port 440H( the same value is 01h-ffh ). This must be done within the time-out period, please refer to the example program. Finally, we have to disable the Watch-Dog timer by write the I/O port -- 440H ( value is 0h ).

TM ® NOVA-3710/3710SV Socket 370 Celeron & Pentium III 81 Multimedia & Dual VGA , Ethernet Embedded Board BIOS Update Procedure: 1. Make a boot disk. Go to the DOS command prompt in MS-DOS or Windows 9x and, with an available floppy disk in "A", type "format A: /s" That will format the floppy and transfer the needed system files to it. NOTES: A. This procedure will erase any prior data on that floppy, so please Proceed accordingly. B. Typically four files will be transferred, only COMMAND.COM being visible when running a simple directory listing. C. Please leave the diskette UN-write protected for the balance of this procedure. 2. Download the BIOS upgrade file and awdflash.exe utility from a ICP web site to a temp directory on your hard drive, or directly to the floppy you made in step 1.. 3. Copy ( BIOS file and awdflash.exe )two files to the boot floppy. 4. Reboot the system to the DOS command prompt using the boot diskette you just made. 5. At the DOS command prompt, type "awdflash filename.xxx", where filename.xxx is the file name of the BIOS file . Hit enter. 6. Your first option, in sequence, will be to save the old BIOS. We recommend that you do that in case, for whatever reason, you decide you don't wish to use the new version once it is installed. NOTES: A. If you decide to save the old BIOS, PLEASE make sure you do NOT save it to the same file name as the new BIOS - if you use the same BIOS name the old file will be written over the new file with NO warning prompt. A simple file name to save the old BIOS to is OLDBIOS.BIN. TM ® NOVA-3710/3710SV Socket 370 Celeron & Pentium III 82 Multimedia & Dual VGA , Ethernet Embedded Board B. If you do NOT decide to save the old BIOS, PLEASE at least write down the version number of the old BIOS and store that information with your important computer documents. Enter N (for "no") and skip to step 9. 7. To save the old BIOS, hit Y (for "yes") 8. Enter a name for the OLD BIOS file and hit enter. NOTE:PLEASE be sure you do NOT save the old BIOS file to the same file name as the new BIOS - if you use the same BIOS name, the old file will write over the new BIOS file WITHOUT a warning prompt. A simple file name for saving the old BIOS to is OLDBIOS.BIN. 9. Your second option, in sequence, will be whether you want to flash your BIOS. Enter Y (for "yes"). NOTE: This is the critical step. Once you kit the enter key, do NOT touch the keyboard, the reset button, or power switch while the flashing is in progress. There will be bar progressing across the screen while the flashing is progressing. 10. When the flashing process is complete, you will be asked to reset or power off the system. Remove the floppy diskette from the floppy drive and either hit the reset button or the power button. 11. Reboot the system and note that the BIOS version on the initial boot-up screen has changed to the new BIOS version. Your BIOS upgrade is now complete. Recovering Your Old BIOS: 1. Assuming you have the floppy made during the upgrade procedure noted above, boot the system with that diskette in the floppy drive. If you do not have floppy made during the upgrade TM ® NOVA-3710/3710SV Socket 370 Celeron & Pentium III 83 Multimedia & Dual VGA , Ethernet Embedded Board procedure noted above, you will need to repeat steps 1 though 3 (above) for the version of the BIOS you wish to recover to. 2. Complete steps 4, 5, 6B, 9, 10, and 11 (above) substituting the name of the BIOS you wish to recover for the upgrade BIOS at step 5. Install screen : Appendix E.
