AR-B1661 Manual 0.6 STATIC ELECTRICITY PRECAUTIONS Before removing the board from its anti-static bag, read this section about static electricity precautions. Static electricity is a constant danger to computer systems. The charge that can build up in your body may be more than sufficient to damage integrated circuits on any PC board. It is, therefore, important to observe basic precautions whenever you use or handle computer components.

AR-B1661 Manual 3. WATCHDOG TIMER This section describes the use of Watchdog Timer, including disable, enable, and trigger. AR-B1661is equipped with a programmable time-out period watchdog timer that occupies I/O port 443H. Users can use simple program to enable the watchdog timer. Once you enable the watchdog timer, the program should trigger it every time before it times out.
AR-B1661 Manual 4. BIOS CONFIGURATION This chapter describes the different settings available in the Award BIOS that comes with the AR-B1661 CPU card. The topics covered in this chapter are as follows: l l l l l l l l l l l l l BIOS Introduction BIOS Setup Standard CMOS Features Advanced Chipset Features Integrated Peripherals Power Management Setup PNP/PCI Configuration Load Fail-Safe Defaults Load Optimized Defaults Set Supervisor Password Set User Password Save & Exit Setup Exit Without Saving 4.
AR-B1661 Manual The section below the setup items of the Main Menu displays the control keys for this menu. At the bottom of the Main Menu just below the control keys section, there is another section, which displays information on the currently highlighted item in the list. NOTE: If your computer cannot boot after making and saving system changes with Setup, the Award BIOS supports an override to the CMOS settings that resets your system to its default.
AR-B1661 Manual Primary HDDs The onboard IDE connectors provide Primary channels for connecting up to four IDE hard disks or other IDE devices. Each channel can support up to two hard disks; the first is the “Master” and the second is the “Slave”. To enter the specifications for a hard disk drive, you must select first a “Type”. There are 45 predefined types and 4 user definable types are for Enhanced IDE BIOS. Type 1 to 45 is predefined. Type “User” is user-definable.
AR-B1661 Manual 4.4 ADVANCED BIOS FEATURES This section allows you to configure and improve your system and allows you to set up some system features according to your preference. Virus Warning This item protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk against accidental modifications. If an attempt is made, the BIOS will halt the system and display a warning message. If this occurs, you can either allow the operation to continue or run an anti-virus program to locate and remove the problem.
AR-B1661 Manual Swap Floppy Drive This item allows you to determine whether or not to enable Swap Floppy Drive. When enabled, the BIOS swaps floppy drive assignments so that Drive A becomes Drive B, and Drive B becomes Drive A. By default, this field is set to Disabled. Boot Up Floppy Seek When enabled, the BIOS will seek whether or not the floppy drive installed has 40 or 80 tracks. 360K type has 40 tracks while 760K, 1.2M and 1.44M all have 80 tracks. By default, this field is set to Enabled.
AR-B1661 Manual 4.5 ADVANCED CHIPSET FEATURES This Setup menu controls the configuration of the motherboard chipset. Auto Configuration This field predefines values for DRAM, cache timing according to CPU type and system clock. When this field is enabled, the predefined items will become read-only. SDRAM RAS-to-CAS Delay When DRAM is refreshed, both rows and columns are addressed separately.
AR-B1661 Manual Video RAM Cacheable Selecting Enabled allows caching of the video BIOS ROM at C0000h to C7FFFh, resulting in better video performance. However, if any program writes to this memory area, a memory access error may result. 8 Bit I/O Recovery Time This option specifies the length of the delay (in sysclks) inserted between consecutive 8-bit I/O operations. The settings are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8. The default setting is 3.
AR-B1661 Manual 4.6 INTEGRATED PERIPHERALS This option sets your hard disk configuration, mode and port. IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave PIO These fields allow your system hard disk controller to work faster. Rather than have the BIOS issue a series of commands that transfer to or from the disk drive, PIO (Programmed Input/Output) allows the BIOS to communicate with the controller and CPU directly. The system supports five modes, numbered from 0 (default) to 4, which primarily differ in timing.
AR-B1661 Manual 4.7 POWER MANAGEMENT SETUP The Power Management Setup allows you to save energy of your system effectively. It will shut down the hard disk and turn off video display after a period of inactivity. ACPI When using AT power, please select Disable. Power Management This field allows you to select the type of power saving management modes. There are four selections for Power Management. Min. Power Saving Minimum power management Max. Power Saving Maximum power management.
AR-B1661 Manual Modem Use IRQ This field names the interrupt request (IRQ) line assigned to the modem (if any) on your system. Activity of the selected IRQ always awakens the system. By default, the IRQ is set to 3. Doze Mode When enabled, and after the set time of system inactivity, the CPU clock will run at a slower speed while all other devices still operate at full speed.
AR-B1661 Manual 4.8 PNP/PCI CONFIGURATION This option configures the PCI bus system. All PCI bus systems on the system use INT#, thus all installed PCI cards must be set to this value.
AR-B1661 Manual 4.9 LOAD FAIL-SAFE DEFAULTS This option allows you to load the troubleshooting default values permanently stored in the BIOS ROM. These default settings are non-optimal and disable all high-performance features.
AR-B1661 Manual 4.11 SUPERVISOR / USER PASSWORD These two options set the system password. Supervisor Password sets a password that will be used to protect the system and Setup utility. User Password sets a password that will be used exclusively on the system. To specify a password, highlight the type you want and press . The Enter Password: message prompts on the screen. Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press .
AR-B1661 Manual 4.13 SAVE & EXIT SETUP This option allows you to determine whether to accept the modifications or not. If you type “Y”, you will quit the setup utility and save all changes into the CMOS memory. If you type “N”, you will return to Setup utility.
