After operating the dual channel technology, the bandwidth of memory bus will add double up to 4GB/s. The mainboard inculdes 4 DIMM slots, and each channel has two DIMM sockets as following: T Channel A : DDR1, DDR3 T Channel B : DDR2 , DDR4 If you want to operate the Dual Channel Technology, please note the following explanations due to the limitation of Intel chipset specifications. Memory Number Description1 Only one DDR memory module is The Dual Channel Technology can’t operate when only one DDR installed ? memory module is installed.2 Two DDR memory modules are The Dual Channel Technology will operate when two memory installed ( the same memory size and modules are inserted individually into Channel A and B. If you type) ? install two memory modules in the same channel, the Dual Channel Technology will not operate.3 Three DDR memory modules are Pleae note that the Dual Channel Technology will not operate installed ? when three DDR memory modules are installed; part of them will not be detected.4 Four DDR memory modules are If you install four memory modules at the same time, the Dual installed ? Channel Technology will operate only when those modules have the same size and type.NOTE: We strongly recommend user to slot two DDR memory modules into the DIMMs with the same color in order for Dual Channel Technology to work.The following tables include all memory-installed combination types:Dual Channel Technology (DS: Double Side, SS: Single Side)2 memory modules DDR1 DDR2 DDR3 DDR44 memory modules DS/SS X DS/SS X X DS/SS X DS/SS DS/SS DS/SS DS/SS DS/SSDon’t operate Dual Channel Technology (DS:Double Side, SS: Single Side)1 memory module DDR1 DDR2 DDR3 DDR42 memory module DS/SS X X X X DS/SS X X3 memory module X X DS/SS X X X X DS/SS DS/SS DS/SS X X X X DS/SS DS/SS DS/SS DS/SS DS/SS X DS/SS DS/SS X DS/SS DS/SS X DS/SS DS/SS X DS/SS DS/SS DS/SSChapter 1 27 Chapter 2System UtilitiesBIOS (Basic Input and Output System) includes a CMOS SETUP utility which allows user toconfigure required setting or to active certain system features.The CMOS SETUP saves the configuration in the CMOS SRAM of the mainboard. When the power is turnedoff, the battery on the mainboard supplies the necessary power to the CMOS SRAM.When the power is turned on, pushing the <Del> button during the BIOS POST (Power-On Self Test) will takeyou to the CMOS SETUP screen. You can enter the BIOS setup screen by pressing “Ctrl+F1”. When settingup BIOS for the first time, it is recommended that you save the current BIOS to a disk in the event that BIOSneeds to be reset to its original settings.Q-Flash allows the user to quickly and easily update or backup BIOS without entering the operating system.BIOS is a Window s-based utility that doesn’t required users to boot to DOS before upgrading BIOS butdirectly download and update BIOS from the Internet.Control Keys Item Description Move to selectionwxyz Select Iteme Main Menu: Quit and not save changes into CMOS Status Page Setup^ Menu and Option Page Setup Menu, Exit current page and return to Main Menu.{ Increase the numeric value or make changes} Decrease the numeric value or make changesl General help, only for Status Page Setup Menu and Option Page Setup Menum Item Helpp Restore the previous CMOS value from CMOS, only for option Page Setup Menur Load the Optimized Defaultst System Informationu Save all the CMOS changes, only for Main MenuNOTE: Main Menu: This is the online description of the highlighted setup functions is displayed at the bottom of the screen.NOTE: Status Page Setup Menu/ Option Page Setup Menu: Press F1 to pop up a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and the possible selections for the highlighted item.

Several items are tested during POST, but is for the most part transparent to the user. The Power-On Self Test (POST) is a BIOS procedure that boots the system, initializes and diagnoses the system components, and controls the operation of the power-on password option. If POST discovers errors in system operations at power-on, it displays error messages on screen, generates a check point code at port 80h or even halts the system if the error is fatal. The main components on the main board that must be diagnosed and/or initialized by POST to ensure system functionality are as follows: T Microprocessor with built-in numeric co-processor and cache memory subsystem T Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller T Interrupt system T Three programmable timers T ROM subsystem T RAM subsystem T CMOS RAM subsystem and real time clock/calendar with battery backup T Onboard parallel interface controller T Embedded hard disk interface and one diskette drive interface T Keyboard and auxiliary device controllers T 1.44M floppy controller T I/O ports T One parallel port T One PS/2-compatible mouse port T One PS/2-compatible keyboard port NOTE: When Post executes a task, it uses a series of preset numbers called check points to be latched at port 80h, indicating the stages it is currently running. This latch can be read and shown on a debug board. The following table describes the BIOS common tasks carried out by POST. Each task is denoted by an unique check point number. For other unique check point numbers that are not listed in the table, refer to the corresponding product service guide. Post Checkpoints List: The list may vary accordingly depending on your BIOS .

If you did not receive any error message, look for a description of your error symptoms in “Error Symptoms List” on page 120. NOTE: When you have deemed it necessary to replace an FRU, and have done so, you must run a total system check to ensure that no other activity has been affected by the change. This system check can be done through the diagnostics program. NOTE: Check all power supply voltages, switch, and jumper settings before you replace the main board. Also check the power supply voltages if you have a “system no-power” condition. If you are unable to correct the problem by using the “BIOS Messages List” table and “Error Symptoms List” table, go to “Undetermined Problems”. To diagnose a problem, first find the BIOS error messages in the left column. If directed to a check procedure, replace the FRU indicated in the check procedure. If no check procedure is indicated, the first Action/FRU listed in right column is the most likely cause.

Some hard drives require extra time to initialize. Cannot find or initialize the hard drive controller or the drive. Make sure the controller is installed correctly. If no hard drives are installed, be sure the Hard Drive Selection in Setup is set to NONE. The system may run specific disk diagnostic routines.

If POST detects an error during memory testing, additional information appears giving specifics about the type and location of the memory error. If the system cannot boot using the current CMOS configuration, the BIOS can override the current configuration with a set of BIOS defaults designed for the most stable, minimal-performance system operations. System OEMs may replace the Phoenix Technologies Award BIOS POST display with their own proprietary display. Including this message in the OEM display permits the operator to switch between the OEM display and the default POST display. POST detects an error in the primary master IDE hard drive. POST detects an error in the secondary master IDE hard drive. POST detects an error in the primary slave IDE hard drive. POST detects an error in the secondary slave IDE hard drive.Chapter 4 80Error Symptoms List NOTE: To diagnose a problem, first find the error symptom in the left column. If directed to a check procedure, replace the FRU indicated in the check procedure. If no check procedure is indicated, the first Action/ FRU listed in right column is the most likely cause.

Before connecting the power connector, please make sure that all components and devices are properly installed. Align the power connector with its proper location on the mainboard and connect tightly. The ATX_12V power connector mainly supplies power to the CPU. If the ATX_12V power connector is not connected, the system will not start. CAUTION: Please use a power supply that is able to handle the system voltage requirements. It is recommemded that a power supply that can withstand high power consumption be used (300W or greater). If a power supply is used that does not provide the required power, the result can lead to an unstable system or a system that is unable to start. If you use a 24-pin ATX power supply, please remove the small cover on the power connector on the motherboard before plugging in the power cord ; Otherwise, please do not remove it.
