SY-P4I865PE Lite DRAGON 2 Quick Start Guide
Configure Memory
This motherboard supports one Dual Channel to your memory. Note that you can use
normal DDR memory for Dual Channel to work. Also note that for Dual Channel to work 2
modules of equal size and specifications have to be installed.
The largest memory capacity possible is 3GB. On this motherboard, DRAM speed can
be set independent from the CPU front side bus speed. Note that when installing 3GB of
memory, your total memory will be less than 3GB. The reason for this is that the BIOS, PCI
and AGP cards claim part of your CPUs address space.
Memory Configuration Table
If you want to use the Dual Channel feature, please follow the memory configuration table
below:
DDR
Slots
DDR_A1
DDR_A2
DDR_B1
Performance
Present
Present
128 bit
Installing your memory in a combination different from the table above will still allow your
system to work. The Dual Channel feature will not work then however.
Check page5 (motherboard layout) for more info on the location of A1 & B1 DIMM
slot.
Memory frequency Table
Depending on the front side bus (FSB) frequency of the CPU, you can run memory of
different speeds. Please look at the table below for details:
Memory Frequency
CPU FSB (MHz)
DDR DIMM Type
(MHz)
266
266 or 333
400 or 320*
400
533
800
PC2100
PC2100 or PC2700
PC3200 or PC2700
* When using a 800 MHz FSB CPU and PC2700 DDR DIMMs, the memory frequency
runs at 320 MHz (instead of 333 MHz) due to chipset limitations.

4. Check if the power supply is ok. The minimum should be 350 watts.
5. Make sure the CPU fan is connected to CPUFAN1 connector.
6. Remove the M/B from the case and test the system. The M/B might be shorted to the
case.
7. Change the VGA card. If you have used a 3.3V AGP card, the M/B might be damaged.
The system powers up, no video, but beeping is heard.
1. Clear the CMOS ram. (JP5 connector, see Quick start guide for more info on how to clear
the CMOS).
2. Check all the jumper settings on the M/B.
3. Check the memory module and the VGA card inserted properly in the M/B.
4. If yes, change the memory module, it might be defective. Make sure the memory
specification is supported by the M/B. (for more info on this, check our FAQ on our
website).
5. Change the VGA card. Make sure the AGP card is 1.5v, not 3.3v.

The system turns on for some seconds then shutdown by itself.
1. Check if the CPU fan is connected to the CPUFAN1 connector.
2. The CPU might be overheating. Check the CPU FAN if it is defective or see if the CPU fan
is in contact with the CPU.
3. Clear the CMOS ram. (JP5 connector, see this Quick start guide for more info on how to
clear the CMOS).
4. Make sure the power supply you have in your system supports the M/B specification.
Example. If you have a P4 M/B, you need to use a P4 power supply. (ATX 12V compliant)
5. If you already checked the power supply specification, change the power supply it might
be defective or to low for your configuration. The minimum is 350 watts.
When I boot up my system, everything works fine, it sees my CPU and memory,
detects my hard drive, floppy drive and CD-ROM but locks up at "Verify DMI pool
data... "it doesn’t go any further. What should I do?
1. Clear the CMOS ram. (JP5 connector, see Quick start guide for more info on how to clear
the CMOS).
2. If it still has the problem, remove all other add-on cards except the video card see if it boots
further. Then put peripherals in one by one to identify which one causes the lockup.
3. Change the CPU.
During Boot-up, my computer says CMOS memory Checksum error. What is the
problem? This error occurs if you:
1. Clear CMOS memory.
2. Re-flash BIOS.
3. Changed the CMOS battery.
4. The BIOS chip might be failing.
Redo your CMOS setup settings. If your battery is empty the error will occur more frequently. You will
need to replace the battery in this case. If the problem persists, reflash the BIOS. If all fails your BIOS
chip is failing and needs to be replaced.
Stability Issue
My system intermittently locks up, very unstable
1. Check the CPU Temp, it might be overheating. Change the CPU FAN. (Check in the
health monitor setup menu what your CPU temperature is)
2. Do not overclock your CPU
3. Check the specification of the memory module, maybe the M/B does not support it.
4. Go to BIOS setup and load fail safe settings. Please check if the system performance in
28
SY-P4I865PE Lite DRAGON 2 Quick Start Guide
the BIOS setup is set to Turbo/Maximum. Set it to normal if so.
5. Check the website for latest BIOS update.
6. Check the website for FAQ’s regarding instability issues.
7. Change the memory module or CPU, they might be defective.
8. The power supply might not have enough wattage to support all the peripherals. If your
system has other peripherals connected, like CD-RW, extra HDD, etc. disconnect them.
And see if the problem is gone then.
9. Install Intel Inf driver.
10. Check if your mainboard is shorting out against the cast.
11. Check if your memory module timings set in CMOS setup are supported by your memory
module.
My system intermittently locks up, during Windows installation.
1. Go to BIOS and load the optimized defaults.
2. Check our website for any BIOS updates.
3. If it still has the problem, remove all other add-on cards except CPU (and CPU Fan)/
Memory/ Video card/Hard disk. See if you can finish Windows installation. Then put
peripherals in one by one to identify which one causes the lockup.
BIOS Issue
Where can I find the BIOS revision of my mainboard?
It will be displayed on the upper-left corner of the screen during boot-up. It will show as your board type
followed by the revision number, such as kvxa_2BA1 (meaning BIOS revision 2BA1 for the SY-K7V
Dragon plus! board) or 6BA+ IV_2AA2 which means SY-6BA+ IV motherboard with the 2AA2 BIOS.
Where can I find the latest BIOS of my motherboard?
How can I flash the BIOS?
1. Download the BIOS from our support website.
2. Make a bootable floppy disk with out any memory manager loaded (i.e. himem, emm386,
etc…).
3. Copy the BIOS file and awdflash utility to the diskette.
4. Type "awdflash biosname.bin /sn /py".
5. Then reboot.

SY-P4I865PE Lite DRAGON 2 Quick Start Guide
After flashing the BIOS, my system will not boot-up.
1. Try clearing the CMOS ram.
2. The BIOS chip is defective due to an unsuccessful flash, contact your nearest SOYO
branch for re-flashing.
Is there a way to reprogram my BIOS after an unsuccessful flash?
No other way, you need to send back the BIOS ROM to your nearest SOYO branch for re-flashing.
I’m using a 400 or 533 MHz FSB CPU, I cannot find the DDR 200MHz option in the
BIOS, why?
An 800 MHz CPU should be used if you want your memory to run at DDR 400 (PC3200).
VGA Issue
I cannot set my VGA to go higher than 16 color (640x 480).
1. Make sure that you have installed the Intel Inf driver.
2. Install/ re-install the VGA driver.
After wake-up from Suspend to RAM or Standby mode, the screen has no display
but I can hear the hard disk operating
1. Check the VGA card manufacturer for a driver update, or make sure the VGA card
supports the Suspend to Ram function.
Audio Issue
How can I disable the on-board Audio?
Go to the SOYO Combo Feature menu in the BIOS setup, then set the “onboard audio” to disable.
I cannot get the sound working on my system.
1. Check if the speaker wire is connected to the line out connector on the M/B.
2. Check if the speaker is powered on.
3. Install the audio driver supplied on our driver disc.
4. Check BIOS setup if “onboard audio” is enabled.
5. If sound is already installed, check our website for an audio driver update.
30
SY-P4I865PE Lite DRAGON 2 Quick Start Guide
The sound is working in my system, but when I play CD music from the CD-ROM, I
do not get any sound. What is wrong?
This is because the 4-wire audio cable from the CD-ROM to the on-board CDIN1 connector on the
M/B is not connected. See manual for location of CDIN1.
The sound and everything else works fine except that the line-in and/or microphone
doesn’t work. What is wrong?
1. Please go to sound properties and check if the line-in and/or microphone are enabled.
2. Check if the Microphone/line-indevice is ok.
Added PCI Audio Card does not work on this motherboard.
1. Go to SOYO COMBO Setup and Disable “onboard audio”.
2. Go to integrated peripherals and Disable “Game port address” and “Midi port address”
Hard disk/FDD/ CD-ROM issue
My Western digital HDD is not detected during boot-up
Change the jumper settings to cable select or single.
Sometimes the system finds my CD-ROM, sometimes not
1. Check CD-ROM if it is working properly.
2. The power supply might not have enough wattage to support all the peripherals. If your
system has other peripherals connected, like CD-RW, extra HDD, etc. disconnect them.
When I boot up my new computer I got "floppy boot failure" and the LED on the
floppy stays on
1. Make sure the red wire of floppy ribbon cable goes to Pin1 on the floppy drive side (don't
trust the "key lock" or "notch") and use the end-connector of the cable (don't use middle
one).
2. Some floppy drivers have their own jumper to make the same twist as the twist on the
cable. Make sure this jumper is set correctly.
