Chapter 2 Hardware Setup
1. We recommend to install your CPU before any other components.
For detailed installation instructions of processor, you can also refer
to the pamphlet enclosed in your CPU package.
2. Installing a cooling fan with a good heat sink is a must for proper
heat dissipation for your CPU. Get ready an appropriate fan with
heat sink for proper installation. Improper fan and installation will
damage your CPU.
3. In case CPU Vcore, CPU clock or Frequency Ratio is adjustable on
board, please follow the instructions described in the User’s manual
for proper setup. Incorrect setting will cause damage to your CPU.

Chapter 2 Hardware Setup
2-1 CPU Installation with Socket 478B
1) CPU Working Frequency
On the heatsink side of a Pentium 4 CPU, there printed a line of figures
to identify its specifications. The line consists of 4 parts:
1. CPU Working Frequency: this part depicts the working frequency of
the CPU. The Intel P4 processor with three differeent System Bus
mode provides a variety of speeds ranging from 2AGHz to 3.2GHz.
400MHz System Bus: 2.60, 2.50, 2.40, 2.20, 2A GHz
533MHz System Bus: 3.06, 2.80, 2.66, 2.53, 2.40, 2.26 GHz
800MHz System Bus: 3.20, 3, 2.80C, 2.60C, 2.40C GHz
2. CPU L2 Cache: this part depicts the L2 Cache size. For example,
512 stands for 512 KB L2 Cache; 256 stands for 256 KB L2 Cache
3. System Bus: this part depicts the System Bus (Front Side Bus) is
provided by CPU clock x 4. For example,
800MHz = 200MHz(CPU clock) x 4; 533MHz = 133MHz x 4
400MHz = 100MHz x 4
Note: System Bus vs CPU Clock
P4 CPU is a quad-pumped CPU. The system bus is provided by the
CPU clock x 4. Therefore, users can figure out the P4 CPU clock by the
System Bus divided by 4.

Chapter 2 Hardware Setup
2-2.3 To Remove a DIMM
Power off the system first, and then press down the holding latches on
both sides of slot to release the module from the DIMM slot.
• North Bridge i865PE supports Dual-channel SDRAM configuration.
• Dual Channel Memory Configuration is formed by couple of identical
DDR SDRAMs.
Dual Channel memory configuration provides higher performance than
Single Channel configurations.
• Matched DIMMs need to have identical density, DRAM technology,
DRAM bus width, and equal number of memory banks.
• The dual memory controller can double the DDR memory bandwidth
up to 6.4GB/s with couple of DDR400, 5.4GB/s with couple of DDR333
and 4.2GB/s with couple of DDR266.
• To enable Dual-channel memory function,
users should insert totally
identical (size and frequency) DDR module pair into the bank-pair.
On this mainboard, DIMM1 + DIMM3 is a Dual channel bank-pair.
DIMM2 + DIMM4 is another. That means, dual-channel transmission
is only enabled in pair, not randomly by any two DIMMs.
2-2.2 Dual Channel Memory Module Installation
DIMM1+DIMM3 = Dual Channel Memory
or / and
DIMM2+DIMM4 = Dual Channel Memory

The AGP slot on board supports 1.5V AGP 8X/4X card only. A Rib is
specifically added to the 8X/4X slot so as to match the AGP 8X/4X card.
To insert a 3.3V AGP 2X card into the AGP 4X slot will damage the
system chip and burn the 1.5V circuitry.
An AGP 8X card will support a data transfer rate up to 2GB/sec, while
an AGP 4X card will provide 1GB/sec transfer rate.

Do not remove any jumper cap when power is on. Always
make sure the power is off before changing any jumper settings.
Otherwise, the mainboard will be damaged.
How to tackle the Jumpers:
• In the Jumper setting diagram, the jumper pins covered with
black marks stand for closed pins with jumper cap.
If a pin-header (of 2 or more pins) is
designed in such a way that its pins
can be closed or linked together to
set up a specific function,
this header
is called a jumper in this manual.

JFSB1 and JFSB2 are designed on board for CPU frequency select.
2-8.1 JFSB1 & JFSB2: CPU Frequency Select
2. Setting JFSB1 all open and JFSB2 2-3 closed is for 133 MHz CPU.
3. Setting JFSB1 2-3 closed and JFSB2 opened is for 200 MHz CPU.
4. If 200MHz is an overclock for your CPU, it may or may not boot your
system. If an overclok fails to boot system, you should restore the
default setting and then clear CMOS to reboot your system. (See
Clear CMOS in next paragraph.)
1. Setting JFSB1 and JFSB2 to 1-2 closed will allow CPU on board to
Auto Detect its own frequency.
2. Setting FSB1 and FSB2 to 2-3 closed is for 100MHz CPU or 400MHz
FSB to boot system..

Chapter 2 Hardware Setup
When you have problem with rebooting your system, you can clear
CMOS data and restore it to default value. To clear CMOS with Jumper
JBAT1, please follow the steps below:
1. Power off system.
2. Set JBAT1 to Pin 2-3 closed.
3. After 2 or 3 seconds, restore the JBAT1 setting to Pin1-2 closed.
4. CMOS data are restored to default now. Remember never clear
CMOS when system power is on.
2-8.2 JBAT1: Clear CMOS
Further Notes on CPU Overclocking:
1. If you have successfully booted system, with or without CPU
overclock, you still can try another CPU overclock in BIOS Setup.
Please enter BIOS Setup, choose “Voltage Control” of Advanced BIOS
Features, and configure the “CPU Clock” item to raise your CPU clock.
2. CPU overclocking should take all components on board into account.
If you fail in BIOS overclocking, you will not be able to restart system.
In such case, Power off system and clear CMOS by JBAT1 and then
restart your system. And remember to reconfigure whatever should
be reconfigured.
3. If your system is already fixed in a cabinet or case, you may not like
to take the trouble to clear CMOS. Then power on your system with
the power button on the PC case and simultaneously press down the
“Insert” key on the keyboard until you see the initial bootup screen
appear. And remember you should also enter CMOS BIOS Setup
instantly and choose “Load Optimized Defaults” to restore default
BIOS .

4-2 To Run BIOS Setup
4-3 About CMOS
4-4 The POST (Power On Self Test)
4-5 To Update BIOS
4-6 BIOS Setup
BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. It was once called
ROM BIOS when it was stored in a Read-Only Memory (ROM) chip
Now manufacturers would like to store BIOS in EEPROM which means
Electrically Erasable Programmable Memory. BIOS used in this series
of mainboard is stored in EEPROM, and is the first program to run when
you turn on your computer.
BIOS performs the following functions:
1. Initializing and testing hardware in your computer (a process called
“POST”, for Power On Self Test).
2. Loading and running your operating system.
3. Helping your operating system and application programs manage
your PC hardware by means of a set of routines called BIOS Run-
Time Service.
THE BIOS
Attention: The BIOS Setup is subject to constant update without further
notice to users. It is necessary for users to update the onboard BIOS
by the latest BIOS version provided in our web site: www.soltek.com.tw

4-1 About BIOS Setup
BIOS setup is an interactive BIOS program that you need to run when:
1. Changing the hardware of your system. (For example: installing a
new Hard Disk etc.)
2. Modifying the behavior of your computer. (For example: changing
the system time or date, or turning special features on or off etc.)
3. Enhancing your computer’s behavior. (For example: speeding up
performance by turning on shadowing or cache)
4-2 To Run BIOS Setup
First access BIOS setup menu by pressing < DEL > key after “POST” is
complete ( before OS is loaded ). BIOS will then display the following
message:
DEL:SETUP
4-3 About CMOS
CMOS is the memory maintained by a battery. CMOS is used to store
the BIOS settings you have selected in BIOS Setup. CMOS also
maintains the internal clock. Every time you turn on your computer, the
BIOS Looks into CMOS for the settings you have selected and configures
your computer accordingly. If the battery runs out of power, the CMOS
data will be lost and POST will issue a “CMOS invalid” or “CMOS
checksum invalid” message. If this happens, you have to replace the
battery and check and configure the BIOS Setup for the new start.
4-4 The POST ( Power On Self Test )
POST is an acronym for Power On Self Test. This program will test all
things the BIOS does before the operating system is started. Each of
POST routines is assigned a POST code, a unique number which is
sent to I/O port 080h before the routine is executed.

4-5 To Update BIOS
System BIOS is incorporated into a Flash memory component. Flash
BIOS allows user to upgrade BIOS without the need to replace an EPROM
component.
The Upgrade Utility can be loaded on a floppy diskette for upgrading
saving, and verifying the system BIOS. The Update Utility can also be run
from a hard disk drive or a network drive.
• It is highly recommended that you save a copy of the original mainboard
BIOS along with a Flash EPROM Programming utility (amiflash.exe) to a
bootable floppy disk so that you can reinstall the BIOS when in need.
Normally, to update BIOS is unnecessary if the system is working fine.
Users should only update BIOS when incompatible problems are encoun-
tered or new features have to be added to system.
“AMIFLASH.EXE” is a Flash EPROM Programming utility that updates
the BIOS by uploading a new BIOS file to the programmable flash ROM
on the mainboard. This program only works in DOS environment, the
utility can not be executed in win95/98, ME, NT WINDOWS 2000 or
Windows XP environment.
• Please follow the steps below for updating the sys-
tem BIOS:
Step 1. Please visit the board maker’s website, download the zip files
of the latest BIOS and AMI flash utility amiflash.exefor your
mainboard. After unzipping, the BIOS file format will be *.ROM, of which
“ * ” stands for the specific BIOS file name.
Step 2. Create a bootable diskette. Then copy the BIOS file and AMI
flash utility “amiflash.exe” into the diskette.
Step 3. Insert the diskette into drive A, boot your system from the
diskette.

Chapter 4 BIOS Setup
51
Step 4. Under “ Aprompt, type “ amiflash *.ROM and then press
<Enter> to run BIOS update program. (*.ROM depends on your
mainboard model and version code. Instead of typing “*”, you should
type the specific file name for your specific mainboard). For example,
you may type “amiflash MP005.rom ”.
Step 5. When the message “Flash ROM Update Completed - Pass.”
appears, please restart your system.
Step 6. You will see a message “CMOS Memory Size Wrong” during
booting the system. Press <Del> or <F1> to run CMOS setup utility,
then reload “Load Failsafe Defaults” or “Load Optimal Defaults” and
save this change.

5-0 About Disk Array
5-0-1 Disk Array Interpretation
A “Disk Array” is formed from a group of 2 or more disk drives with the
RAID (Redundent Array of Independent Disks) technology. The aim of
a Disk Array is to provide better perfornance and/or data fault tolerance.
5-0-2 Disk Array Member
The individual disk drive in an array is called a “member”. Each member
of a specific disk array is coded in their “reserved sector” with
configuration information that identifies the drive as a member. All disk
members in a formed disk array are recognized as a single physical
drive to the system.
5-0-3 Disk Array Types Supported by PDC20378
1. RAID 0 (or Striping mode):
RAID 0 is a group of 2 to 4 Disk Drives configured together with
RAID technology to provide better data transfer performance than a
single drive since the workload is balanced between the array
members. Reads and Writes of RAID 0 data are interleaved between
multiple drives. When any disk member fails, it affects the entire array.
The disk array size is equal to the number of drive members times
the smallest member capacity. For example, one 1GB and three 1.
2GB drives will form a 4GB (4x1GB) disk array.
2. RAID 1 (or Mirroring mode):
RAID 1 is a group of 2 Disk Drives configured together with RAID
Technology to provide the fault tolerance function. Writes duplicate
data on to RAID 1 while reads are performed in parallel. If one of the
mirrored drives suffers a mechanical failure (e.g. spindle failure) or
does not respond , the remaining drive will continue to function. This
is called Fault Tolerance.
The drive capacity of RAID 1 is half the total drive capacity of two
equal-size drive.
3. RAID 0+1 (Mirror/Stripe):
RAID 0+1 is formed by a RAID 0 member mirrored to another RAID
member to establish a RAID 0+1 Array. RAID 0+1 requires at least 4
disk drive to set up the RAID 0+1 configuration.
