    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 i7221 S5150 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

    Seat the module firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until it sits flush with the socket. The locking levers pop up into place. 2.8 Installing the Processor and Cooling Fan Your Tomcat i7221 S5150 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.
  • Page 24 Tomcat i7221 S5150 Chapter 2: Board Installation Locate the processor socket on the motherboard and lift the protective cover off as shown. WARNING This new processor socket designed by Intel is easily damaged. The processor has to be installed very carefully to prevent the contact pins of the socket from breaking.
  • Page 25 Tomcat i7221 S5150 Chapter 2: Board Installation Follow these instructions to install the heatsink shown. Apply some thermal compound (also called heatsink compound or thermal grease) to the top of the processor. Try and apply a thin, even layer over the top of the processor.

    Tomcat i7221 S5150 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 31: 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.

EGA/VGA / CGA 40 / CGA 80 / MONO Halt On Determines if the computer should stop when an error is detected during power up.
  • Page 35 Tomcat i7221 S5150 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup This is because OS/2 and Windows enter and leave protected mode via the BIOS, so Gate A20 needs to switch often from enabled to disabled and back again. Setting this feature to Fast improves memory access performance above 1MB because the chipset is much faster at switching Gate A20 than the keyboard controller.

  • Page 36: Cpu Features

    Tomcat i7221 S5150 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 37 Tomcat i7221 S5150 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 43: Pci Express Root Port Function

    Tomcat i7221 S5150 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 44 Tomcat i7221 S5150 Chapter 3: BIOS Setup 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. This is achieved by implementing scalable numbers for pins and signal lanes per interconnect based on communication performance requirements for that interconnect.

  • Page 45: Integrated Peripherals

    Tomcat i7221 S5150 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 46 Tomcat i7221 S5150 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.

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).

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.
