Handling Precautions

Warning :

1. Static electricity may cause damage to the integrated circuits on the

mainboard.

Before handling any mainboard outside of its protective packaging,

ensure that there is no static electric charge in your body.

2. There is a danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.

Replace only with the same or an equivalent type recommended by the

manufacturer.

3. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Observe the following basic precautions when handling the mainboard or other

computer components:

■Wear a static wrist strap which fits around your wrist and is connected to a

natural earth ground.

■Touch a grounded or anti-static surface or a metal fixture such as a water

pipe.

■Avoid contacting the components on add-on cards, boards and modules and

with the “gold finger” connectors plugged into the expansion slot. It is best

to handle system components by their mounting bracket.

The above methods prevent static build-up and cause it to be discharged

properly.

Overview

The PT-2006 mainboard combines the advanced capabilities of the Intel

82430VX PCIset with a high-performance concurrent PCI local bus architecture

to provide the ideal platform for unleashing the unsurpassed speed and power of

the Intel Pentium processor.

This highly-flexible mainboard is designed to run a full range of Intel Pentium,

Cyrix 6x86, IBM 6x86and AMD-K5 processors, and can be easily upgraded

using its 321-pin ZIF socket. The processor’s advanced performance is

complemented by a second level write back Pipeline Burst SRAM cache of up to

512KB and main memory of up to 128MB DRAM. The main memory is

installed using the board’s four 72-pin SIMM sockets and one 168-pin DIMM

socket that accept a choice of lightning-fast synchronous DRAM (SDRAM),

high-speed EDO, or standard Fast Page Mode DRAM.

The PT-2006 integrates a full set of I/O features onboard, including two 16550A

UART compatible serial ports, one EPP/ECP capable parallel port, and one

Floppy Disk Drive controller. It also comes with a built in Enhanced IDE

controller that provides convenient, high-speed PCI Bus Master connections with

up to four IDE devices, including Hard Disk and CD-ROM drives. Three 16-bit

ISA slots and four 32-bit PCI slots provide ample room for further expansion.

The mainboard also features support for the state-of-the-art Universal Serial Bus

(USB) that provides ease-of-use and high-speed Plug & Play connections to

future USB compliant peripheral devices. The IrDA compliant serial port and

optional onboard SIR support further enhance system

I/O connectivity.

This chapter gives a you a brief overview of the PT-2006 mainboard. In addition

to basic information on the board’s main components and features, it also

provides advice on how to upgrade and expand it. For updated BIOS, drivers, or

Congratulations on your decision to adopt the PT-2006 mainboard. With its high-

speed PCI local bus architecture and ultra-fast I/O connections, the PT-2006

provides the ultimate solution for optimizing the performance of your high-end

system.

PT-2006 Mainboard Manual

This User Manual

This manual is designed to guide you and facilitate your use of the PT-2006

mainboard. It contains a description of the design and features of the mainboard,

and also includes useful information for changing the configuration of the board

and the system it is installed in. The manual is divided into three chapters, which

contain the main body of information normally referred to by users.

■Chapter 1 - Overview

gives an overview of the mainboard and describes its major components and

features.

■Chapter 2 - Installation Procedures

gives instructions on how to set up the mainboard, including jumper settings and

CPU installation guide.

■Chapter 3 - Award BIOS Setup

briefly explains the mainboard’s BIOS system setup in general and tells you how

to run it and change the system configuration settings.

NOTE : The material in this manual is for information only and is subject to

change without notice. We reserve the right to make changes in the product

design without reservation and without notification to its users. We shall not

be liable for technical or editorial omissions made herein; nor for incidental or

consequential damages resulting from the furnishing, performance, or use of

this material.

Overview

Something Interesting

This section provides useful information that you will need to know should you

decide to modify or upgrade the configuration of the mainboard and the system it

is installed in. If you do not have the confidence to upgrade the mainboard

yourself, we advise that you consult a qualified service technician for assistance.

The BIOS Setup Utility

The BIOS (Basic Input Output System) is the basic firmware that instructs the

computer how to operate. For the BIOS to work properly, there must be a record

of the computer’s hardware and configuration settings for it to refer to. This

record is created using the Setup Utility, a program that is stored permanently in

the BIOS ROM chip on the mainboard.

The system configuration record created by the Setup Utility is also stored on the

mainboard, but not permanently. This section of the memory it is stored is in the

NVRAM.

When you buy your computer, the system configuration record will already be

set and may in some cases differ from the basic defaults. The first time you use

your computer or when you need to re-configure your system, you should run the

Setup Utility and write down the settings.

PT-2006 Mainboard Manual

IRQ Functionality

As you read through this manual, you will see the term IRQ on a number of

occasions. It is important for you to know what this term means, particularly if

you intend to upgrade your system.

IRQ stands for Interrupt Request, the process in which an input or output device

tells the processor to temporarily interrupt its current task and immediately

process something from the source of the interrupt. When it has completed this,

the processor returns to the task it was already processing. Devices that need an

IRQ line to operate sometimes need to have exclusive use of that line.

A large number of add-on cards, such as sound cards and LAN cards, require the

use of an IRQ line to function. There is a total of 16 IRQs (IRQ0 to IRQ15)

available in a system, although some of them may already be in use by

components in the system such as the keyboard and mouse. Add-on cards that

need to use an IRQ draw from the unused group of IRQs. When installing a card

that uses an IRQ, it will have a default IRQ setting which you might have to

change if that IRQ is already in use and cannot be shared.

Both ISA and PCI add-on cards may need to use IRQs. System IRQs are

available to add-on cards installed on the ISA bus first; the remaining ones can

be used by cards installed on the PCI bus. There are two categories of ISA add-

on cards: so-called Legacy ISA cards, which need to be configured manually and

then installed in any available ISA slot; and Plug and Play (PnP) ISA cards,

which are configured automatically by the system. As a result, when you install

Legacy ISA cards, you have to carefully configure the system to ensure that the

installed cards do not conflict with each other by having the same IRQ. With PnP

cards, on the other hand, IRQs are assigned automatically from the ones

available in the system. In the case of PCI add-on cards, the BIOS automatically

assigns an IRQ card to the PCI slot the card is installed in.
