  • Page 45 6CXC7Series Motherboard 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). Your SDRAM must be PC-100 compliant.
  • Page 46: Dual Bios Introduction (Optional)

    Dual BIOS Introduction (Optional) What is Dual BIOS Technology? Dual BIOS means that there are two system BIOS (ROM) on the motherboard, one is the Main BIOS and the other is Backup BIOS. Under the normal circumstances, the system works on the Main BIOS. If the Main BIOS is corrupted or damaged, the Backup BIOS can take over while the system is powered on.

Auto Recovery : Enabled(Default), Disabled When one of the Main BIOS or Backup BIOS occurs checksum failure, the working BIOS will automatically recover the BIOS of checksum failure.
  • Page 49 6CXC7 Series Motherboard DualBIOS Technology FAQ GIGABYTE Technology is pleased to introduce DualBIOS technology, a hot spare for your system BIOS. This newest “Value-added” feature, in a long series of innovations from GIGABYTE, is available on GA-6CXC7 motherboard. Future GIGABYTE motherboards will also incorporate this innovation.
  • Page 50 I. Q: What is DualBIOS technology? Answer: DualBIOS technology is a patented technology from Giga-Byte Technology. The concept of this technology is based on the redundancy and fault tolerance theory. DualBIOS simply means there are two system BIOSes (ROM) integrated onto the motherboard. One is a main BIOS, and the other is a backup BIOS.
  • Page 51 6CXC7 Series Motherboard III. Q: How does DualBIOS Answer: 1. DualBIOS technology provides a wide range of protection during the boot up procedure. It protects your BIOS during system POST, ESCD update, and even all the way to PNP detection/assignment. 2.
  • Page 52 2. During or after a BIOS upgrade, if DualBIOS backup BIOS will take over the boot-up process automatically. Moreover, it will verify the main and backup BIOS checksums when booting-up. DualBIOS checksum of the main and backup BIOS while the system is powered on to guarantee your BIOS operates properly.
