The Choice: Non-OS2, OS2 Small Logo(EPA) Show Disabled/Enabled Small Logo(EPA) Show 29 4.7 Advanced Chipset Features This section allows you to configure the system based on the specific features of the installed chipset. This chipset manages bus speeds and access to system memory resources, such as DRAM and the external cache. It also coordinates communications between the conventional ISA bus and the PCI bus. It must be stated that these items should never need to be altered. The default settings have been chosen because they provide the best operating conditions for your system. DRAM Timing Selectable The first chipset settings deal with CPU access to dynamic random access memory (DRAM). The default timings have been carefully chosen and should only be altered if data is being lost. Such a scenario might well occur if your system had mixed speed DRAM chips installed so that greater delays may be required to preserve the integrity of the data held in the slower memory chips. CAS Latency Time When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS latency depends on the DRAM timing. The Choice: 1.5 , 2, 2.5 , 3 DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay This section lets you insert a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe signals, used when DRAM is written to, read from, or refreshed. Fast gives faster performance; and Slow gives more stable performance. However, this function applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. The Choice: 2, 3 DRAM RAS# Precharge 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 data. Fast gives faster performance; and Slow gives more stable performance. This field applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. The Choice: 2, 3 30 DRAM Frequency For This section displays the capability of the memory modules that you are using either H/W TRAP. The Choice: Auto, DDR266, DDR333, DDR400 System BIOS Cacheable Selecting Enabled allows caching of the system BIOS ROM at F0000h-FFFFFh, resulting in better system performance.

PCI, or Personal Computer Interconnect, is a system which allows I/O devices to operate at speeds nearing the speed the CPU itself uses when communicating with its own special components. This section covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced users should make any changes to the default settings. Reset Configuration Data Normally, you leave this field Disabled. Select Enabled to reset Extended System Configuration Data (ESCD) when you exit Setup if you have installed a new add- on and the system reconfiguration has caused such a serious conflict that the operating system can not boot. The Choice: Enabled, Disabled Resource controlled by The Award Plug and Play BIOS has the capacity to automatically configure all of the boot and Plug and Play compatible devices. However, this capability means absolutely nothing unless you are using a Plug and Play operating system such as Windows®95.

N Pressing ‘Y’ loads the BIOS default values for the most stable, minimal- performance system operations. 4.14 Load Optimized Defaults When you press on this item you get a confirmation dialog box with a message similar to: Load Optimized Defaults (Y/N) ? N Pressing ‘Y’ loads the default values that are factory settings for optimal performance system operations. 4.15 Set Password The user can enter and change the options of the setup menus. � ENTER PASSWORD: Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press . 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 . You may also press to abort the selection and not enter a password. To disable a password, just press 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 3). If the Security option is set to password will be required both at boot and at entry to Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter Setup. 39 4.16 Exit Selecting Save & Exit Setup Pressing on this item asks for confirmation: Save to CMOS and EXIT (Y/N)? Y Pressing “Y” stores the selections made in the menus in CMOS – a special section of memory that stays on after you turn your system off. The next time you boot your computer, the BIOS configures your system according to the Setup selections stored in CMOS. After saving the values the system is restarted again. Exit Without Saving Pressing on this item asks for confirmation: Quit without saving (Y/N)? Y This allows you to exit Setup without storing in CMOS any change. The previous selections remain in effect. This exits the Setup utility and restarts your computer. 40 Appendix A Watchdog Timer The Watchdog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone systems can always recover from catastrophic conditions that cause the CPU to crash. This condition may have occurred by external EMI or a software bug. When the CPU stops working correctly, hardware on the board will either perform a hardware reset (cold boot) or a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) to bring the system back to a known state. A BIOS function call (INT 15H) is used to control the Watchdog Timer: INT 15H: AH – 6FH Sub-function: AL – 2 : Set the Watchdog Timer’s period BL : Time-out value(Its unit--second is dependent on the item “Watchdog Timer unit select” in CMOS setup). You have to call sub-function 2 to set the time-out period of Watchdog Timer first. If the time-out value is not zero, the Watchdog Timer will start counting down. While the timer value reaches zero, the system will reset. To ensure that this reset condition does not occur, the Watchdog Timer must be periodically refreshed by calling sub-function 2. However the Watchdog timer will be disabled if you set the time-out value to be zero. A tolerance of at least 10% must be maintained to avoid unknown routines within the operating system (DOS), such as disk I/O that can be very time-consuming. Note: When exiting a program it is necessary to disable the Watchdog Timer, otherwise the system will reset. Example program: ; INITIAL TIMER PERIOD COUNTER ; W_LOOP: MOV AX, 6F02H ;setting the time-out value MOV BL, 30 ;time-out value is 48 seconds INT 15H ; ; ADD YOUR APPLICATION PROGRAM HERE ; CMP EXIT_AP, 1 ;is your application over? JNE W_LOOP ;No, restart your application MOV AX, 6F02H ;disable Watchdog Timer MOV BL, 0 ; INT 15H ; ; EXIT ; 41 Appendix B Address Mapping IO Address Map I/O address Range Description 000-01F DMA Controller 020-021 Interrupt Controller 040-05F System time 060-06F Keyboard Controller 070-07F System CMOS/Real time Clock 080-09F DMA Controller 0A0-0A1 Interrupt Controller 0C0-0DF DMA Controller 0F0-0FF Numeric data processor 1F0-1F7 Primary IDE Channel 2F8-2FF Serial Port 2 (COM2) 378-37F Parallel Printer Port 1 (LPT1) 3B0-3BB Intel(R) 82865 Graphics Controller 3C0-3DF Intel(R) 82865 Graphics Controller 3F6-3F6 Primary IDE Channel 3F7-3F7 Standard floppy disk controller 3F8-3FF Serial Port 1 (COM1) 1st MB Memory Address Map Memory address Description 00000-9FFFF System memory A0000-BFFFF VGA buffer F0000-FFFFF System BIOS 1000000- Extend BIOS *Default setting IRQ Mapping Table IRQ0 System Timer IRQ8 RTC clock IRQ1 Keyboard IRQ9 AUDIO/SMBus Cntrlr IRQ2 Available IRQ10 LAN IRQ3 COM2 IRQ11 LAN/USB2.0/SATA IRQ4 COM1 IRQ12 PS/2 mouse IRQ5 VGA/SMBus Cntrlr IRQ13 FPU IRQ6 FDC IRQ14 Primary IDE IRQ7 Available IRQ15 Secondary IDE 42 DMA Channel Assignments Channel Function 0 Available 1 Available 2 Floppy disk ( 8-bit transfer ) 3 Available 4 Cascade for DMA controller 1 5 Available 6 Available 7 Available 43 Appendix C How to Upgrade a New BIOS Before flashing BIOS , please enable the item “FLASH BIOS” in BIOS setting. You can install an upgrade BIOS for the ROCKY-4786EVG that you can download from the manufacturer’s web site ( http://www.ieiworld.com ). New BIOS may provide support for new peripherals ,improvements in performance or fixes to addressed known bugs. 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. 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. 44 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 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 : 45
