1. ssssee 52 INTRODUCTION 1 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1 1 Essential Handling Precautions IMPORTANT Read this page before unpacking your motherboard e Power Supply Be careful Always ensure that the computer is disconnected from the power supply when working on the motherboard and its components e Static Static electricity may cause damage to the delicate integrated circuit chips on your motherboard Before handling the motherboard outside of its protective packaging ensure that there is no static electric charge in your body To avoid this risk please observe these simple precautions while handling the motherboard and other computer components 1 If possible wear an anti static wrist strap This fits around your wrist and is connected to a natural earth ground 2 Touch a grounded or anti static surface or a metal fixture such as a pipe or the chassis of your system before touching the motherboard 3 When you have removed the motherboard from its anti static packaging try to hold it only by the edges without touching any components 4 Avoid contacting the components on add on cards motherboards and modules with the golden fingers gold colored connectors which plug into the expansion slots 5 It is safest to handle system components only by their mounting brackets 6 Keep components which are not connected to the system in the anti static packaging whenever possible These precautions help to reduce th2. Normal LBA Large or Auto Normal Maximum number of cylinders heads and sectors supported are 1024 16 and 63 respectively LBA Logical Block Addressing During drive access the IDE controller transfers the data address described by sector head and cylinder number into a physical block address This will significantly improve data transfer rates for drives with more than 1024 cylinders Large For drives that do not support LBA and have more than 1024 cylinders Auto The BIOS automatically determines the optimal access mode e Capacity Disk drive capacity Note that this size is slighty greater than the size of formatted disk given by the disk checking program e Cylinder Number of cylinders e Head Number of heads e Precomp Write precompensation cylinder e Landing Zone Landing zone e Sector Number of sectors BIOS SETUP 25 e Drive A Drive B Select the correct types of diskette drive s installed in the computer None No diskette drive installed 360K 5 25 in 5 1 4 inch standard drive 360 kilobyte capacity 1 2M 5 25 in 5 1 4 inch high density drive 1 2 megabyte capacity 720K 3 5 in 3 1 2 inch double sided drive 720 kilobyte capacity 1 44M 3 5 in 3 1 2 inch double sided drive 1 44 megabyte capacity 2 88M 3 5 in 3 1 2 inch double sided drive 2 88 megabyte capacity e Floppy Mode 3 Support Supports some particular Japanese floppy drives 3 5 inch driv
