* Note: Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor's specifications. We don't recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU's specification because these specific bus frequencies are notthe Standard specifications for CPU, chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Chipsets, SDRAM, Cards….etc.

Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is a Windows 98 ACPI sleep mode function. When recovering from STR (53) sleep mode, the system is able, in just a few seconds, to retrieve the last “state” of the system before it went to sleep and recover to that state. The “state” is stored in memory (RAM) before the system goes to sleep. During STR sleep mode, your system uses only enough energy to maintain critical information and system functions, primarily the system state and the ability to recognize various “wake up" triggers or signals, respectively.

A2 STR function Installation

Please use the following steps to complete the STR function installation. Step-By-Step Setup

To utilize the STR function, the system must be in Windows 98 ACPI mode.

Putting Windows 98 into ACPI mode is fairly easy. Setup with Windows 98 CD:

A Insert the Windows 98 CD into your CD-ROM drive, select Start, and then Run.

B Type (without quotes) “D:\setup /p j” in the window provided. Hit the enter key or click OK.

C. After setup completes, remove the CD, and reboot your system (This manual assumes that your CD-ROM device drive letter is D:)

Step 3: Power on the computer and as soon as memory counting starts, press <Del>. You will enter BIOS Setup. Selectthe item “POWER MANAGEMENT SETUP”, then select “ACPI Suspend Type: S3 (Suspend to RAM)”. Remember to save the settings by pressing "ESC" and choose the “SAVE & EXIT SETUP” option

Congratulation! You have completed the installation and now can use the STR function.

A3 How to put your system into STR mode?

There are two ways to accomplish this 1. Choose the “Stand by” item in the “Shut Down Windows” area. À. Press the “Start” button and then select “Shut Down”

NET B. Choose the “Stand by” item and press "OK" Shut Down Windows [x]

‘What do vou want the computer to do?

2. Define the system "power on” button to initiate STR sleep mode: A. Double click "My Computer” and then “Control Panel”

6WFZ7 Series Motherboard

C. Select the “Advanced” tab and “Standby" mode in Power Buttons.

Power Management Properties:

Step 4: Restart your computer to complete setup.

Now when you want to enter STR sleep mode, just momentarily press the “Power on” button.

A4 How to recover from the STR sleep mode? There are seven ways to “wake up” the system:

. Press the “Power On” button.

. Use the “Keyboard Power On” function.

. Use the “Resume by Alarm” function. Use the “Modem Ring On” function.

Suspend to RAM Installation

A.5 Notices : In order for STR to function properly, several hardware and software requirements must be satisfied:

A. Your ATX power supply must comply with the ATX 2.01 specification (provide more than 720 mA 5V Stand-By current).

B. Your SDRAM must be PC-100 compliant.

2. Connector]P15 is provided to connect to the STR LED in your system chassis. [Your chassis may not provide this feature.] The STR LED will be illuminated when your system is in STR sleep mode.

STR LED Connector External

The motherboard has 2 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM Slot.The DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the two notch. Memory size can vary between sockets.

Install memory in any combination table:

BIOS Setup is an overview ofthe BIOS Setup Program. The program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-backed CMOS RAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is tumed off.

ENTERING SETUP Power ON the computer and press <Del> immediately will allow you to enter Setup. If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restartthe system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" bottom on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously press <Ctl> —<Alt>—<Del> keys.
