Page 21: Mounting The Motherboard
Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable, TYAN recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place. See the diagram below for some examples of typical motherboard fixing studs. -
Page 22: Installing Memory
All installed memory will be automatically detected and no jumpers or settings need to be set. The Tomcat i7221A S5151 supports up to 4GB of memory Registered Memory is NOT supported. You can install either single or double-sided modules on this motherboard. Each DIMM can work in single-channel mode or dual-channel mode. -
Page 23: Memory Installation Procedure
Chapter 2: Board Installation 2.7.1 Memory Installation Procedure Follow these instructions to install memory modules into the Tomcat i7221A S5151. Press the locking levers in the direction shown in the following illustration. Align the memory module with the socket. The memory module is keyed to fit only one way in the socket. -
Page 24: Installing The Processor And Cooling Fan
Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 2: Board Installation 2.8 Installing the Processor and Cooling Fan Your Tomcat i7221A S5151 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel. Check the TYAN website for latest processor support: http://www.tyan.com Processor Installation The processor should be installed carefully. Make sure you are wearing an antistatic strap and handle the processor as little as possible. - Page 25 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 2: Board Installation Lift the metal cover to expose the socket interior and place the socket in as shown. Pin 1 Close the cover and return the locking lever to its locked pos ition. Cooling Fan Installation After you have installed the processor, the heatsink should be installed to ensure that the processor runs efficiently and does not overheat.
- Page 26 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 2: Board Installation To remove the heatsink you will need to twist each of the black locking pegs until they spring up and unlock the heatsink from the motherboard. Remember to connect the power supply for the fan to complete the installation.

Page 27: Installing Drive Cables
Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 2: Board Installation 2.9 Installing Drive Cables TIP: IDE and FDD connectors are “keyed” to only allow insertion only one way. S5151 motherboard has two on-board IDE channels, each supporting two drives. IDE Cable When connecting to an IDE cable to a drive, Pin 1 on the IDE cable (usually designated by a colored wire) should be closest to the drive power connector. -
Page 28: Installing Expansion Cards
Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 2: Board Installation 2.10 Installing Expansion Cards Before installing add-in cards, you should ensure that they are fully compatible with your motherboard. For this reason, we’ve provided the diagrams below, showing the expansion slots that appear on your motherboard. -
Page 29: Onboard Lan Led Color Definition
No Link 2.12 Installing the Power Supply There are t w o power connectors on your Tomcat i7221A S5151. The Tomcat i7221A S5151 requires that you have an EPS12V power supply that has a 24-pin and an 8-pin power connector. Please be aware that ATX 2.x, ATX12V and ATXGES power supplies are not compatible with the board and can damage the motherboard and/or CPU(s). -

Page 31: Chapter 3: Bios Setup
Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup Chapter 3: BIOS Setup 3.1 About the BIOS The BIOS is the basic input/output system, the firmware on the motherboard that enables your hardware to interface with your software. This chapter describes different settings for the BIOS that can be used to configure your system. -
Page 32: In Case Of Problems
Only alter settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change settings in the Chipset section unless you are sure of the outcome. TYAN or your system manufacturer has carefully chosen the chipset defaults for best performance and reliability. Even a small change to the Chipset setup options may cause the system to become unstable or unusable. - Page 33 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup Integrated Peripherals Use this menu to specify your settings for integrated peripherals. Power Management Setup Use this menu to specify your settings for power management. PnP / PCI Configuration This entry appears if your system supports PnP / PCI.

Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup 3.4.1 CPU Features Press [Enter] to access advanced features of the CPU. Delay Prior to Thermal This BIOS feature is only valid for systems that are powered by 0.13µ Intel Pentium 4 processors with 512KB L2 cache. - Page 38 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup Thermal Management Thermal Management throttles the processor back as it reaches its maximum operating temperature. Throttling reduces the number of processing cycles, thereby diminishing the heat dissipation of the CPU. This cools the unit. Once the CPU has reached a safe operating temperature, thermal throttling is automatically disabled, and normal full speed processing begins again.
- Page 39 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup keeping as much of this information as possible in SRAM, the computer avoids accessing the slower DRAM. Enabled / Disabled CPU L3 Cache This BIOS feature controls the functionality of the processor's Level 3 cache.

Page 44: Pci Express Root Port Function
Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup If you enable this feature, 1MB of memory (the 15th MB) will be reserved exclusively for the ISA card's use. This effectively reduces the total amount of memory available to the operating system by 1MB. - Page 45 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup Express transmission and reception data rate is 2.5 Gbits/sec. A serial interconnect between two devices results in fewer pins per device package, which reduces PCI Express chip and board design cost and reduces board design complexity. PCI Express performance is also highly scalable.

Page 46: Integrated Peripherals
Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup 3.6 Integrated Peripherals Options related to onboard peripheral features could be altered through the following: 3.6.1 OnChip IDE Device IDE HDD Block Mode The IDE HDD Block Mode feature speeds up hard disk access by transferring data from multiple sectors at once instead of using the old single sector transfer mode. - Page 47 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup Note Microsoft recommends that WinNT 4.0 users without Service Pack 2 disable IDE HDD Block Mode as it causes data corruption. On-Chip Primary/Secondary PCI IDE IDE hard drive controllers can support up to two separate hard drives. These drives have a master/slave relationship that is determined by the cabling configuration used to attach them to the controller.

The most common type of error is a memory error. Before contacting your vendor or TYAN Technical Support, be sure that you note as much as you can about the beep code length and order that you experience. Also, be ready with information regarding add-in cards, drives and O/S to speed the support process and come to a quicker solution. -

Tomcat i7221A S5151 Appendix I: Glossary Appendix I: Glossary ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface): a power management specification that allows the operating system to control the amount of power distributed to the computer’s devices. Devices not in use can be turned off, reducing unnecessary power expenditure. - Page 100 EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM): also called Flash BIOS, is a ROM chip which can, unlike normal ROM, be updated. This allows you to keep up with changes in the BIOS programs without having to buy a new chip. TYAN’s BIOS updates can be found at http://www.tyan.com...
- Page 101 Form factor: an industry term for the size, shape, power supply type, and external connector type of the Personal Computer Board (PCB) or motherboard. The standard form factors are the AT and ATX, although TYAN also makes some Baby-AT and ATX Footprint boards. Global timer: onboard hardware timer, such as the Real-Time Clock (RTC).
- Page 102 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Appendix I: Glossary Latency: the amount of time that one part of a system spends waiting for another part to catch up. This is most common when the system sends data out to a peripheral device, and it waiting for the peripheral to send some data back (peripherals tend to be slower than onboard system components).
- Page 103 Tomcat i7221A S5151 Appendix I: Glossary RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks): a way for the same data to be stored in different places on many hard drives. By using this method, the data is stored redundantly, also the multiple hard drives will appear as a single drive to the operating system. RAID level 0 is known as striping, where data is striped (or overlapped) across multiple hard drives, but offers no fault-tolerance.
