Step 3. Configure Memory
Your board comes with four DIMM sockets, providing support for up to 1.5GB of main
memory using unbuffered and registered DIMM modules from 8MB to 256/512MB. On this
motherboard, DRAM speed can be set independent from the CPU front side bus speed.
Depending on the DRAM clock speed setting in the BIOS setup (Chapter 3), appropriate
memory modules must be used. For 66MHz DRAM speed, use PC66 memory; for 100MHz
DRAM speed, use PC100 memory; for 133MHz DRAM speed, use PC133 memory.

(For DIMM3 & DIMM4)
Note:Always install memory modules in the order prescribed in this table.
Step 4. CPU B21 and A14 Settings: JP8 and JP9
For certain Intel CPUs, the multiplier is not locked such that setting a multiplier higher than
specified on the CPU is possible. For technical details read the following:
Your PII /III 100/66 MHz FSB CPU has an input pin B21 (100/66# signal) to tell it what FSB
frequency it is running at; The PIII 133 MHz FSB CPU has two pins B21and A14 (133/100#
signal). JP8 and JP9 are connected to the B21 and A14 input respectively and are used to
tell CPU its FSB speed.
The actual FSB Frequency is however set through the BIOS and it may therefore differ from
the Frequency specified to the CPU through JP8 & JP9.
Because some INTEL CPUs have their multipliers limited at a FSB Frequency of 100MHz
and higher, telling the CPU that it is running at 66MHz through JP8 & JP9 while setting a
different (higher) FSB Frequency in the BIOS may allow the user to set a higher multiplier
value. Doing so will however force your CPU to operate out of its specifications, and therefore
SOYO can not guarantee the proper functioning of your system.

This setting will tell CPU that it is running on 66MHz; this will release more multiplier
settings on some Intel CPUs, but it will make the system operate out of its
specifications if the actual FSB frequency is 100MHz higher.
Step 5. FSB boot-up frequency and AGP divider: JP2 and JP7
The settings of JP2 and JP7 determine the FSB frequency at boot-up, and more important,
they determine the AGP divider and the group of FSB frequencies that can be selected in the
BIOS. Refer to the following table:
Boot-up BIOS FSB

As example, if JP7 is set to open and JP2 to (1-2), the boot-up FSB frequency will be
100MHz. When the BIOS takes control, it will write the BIOS FSB setting to the clock
generator. This happens shortly after power-up, and the FSB frequency will then be in
accordance to the BIOS setting. The group from which the FSB Frequency can be selected
in the BIOS is 90~122MHz and AGP Clock will be 60~81MHz. Note that all FSB
Frequencies are available in the BIOS, but that only those in the group as determined by JP2
and JP7 will have effect when selected.

Step 6. Set the CPU Frequency
You do not need to set any jumper for the CPU frequency. Instead, CPU settings are
changed through the BIOS [SOYO COMBO SETUP]. Please refer to Chapter 3 - Quick
BIOS Setup for details on how to set the Slot 1 processor frequency.
Step 7. External Suspend Button (JP1)
Some cases come with a suspend button, insert the plug into JP1. In addition to this button,
the system can also enter the suspend mode through your OS.
Note: Suspend mode only functions if your Power Management mode is APM. Make sure that the BIOS
setting for Power Management is APM. Windows 98 can be installed with ACPI Power
Management (default is APM), in this case suspend mode will not function either.
Step 8. Enable/Disable Power-On by Keyboard (JP10)
You can choose to enable the Power-On by Keyboard function by shorting pin 1-2 on jumper
JP10, otherwise, short pin 2-3 to disable this function.

Important: When using the Power-On by Keyboard function, please make sure the
ATX power supply can take at least 720mA load on the 5V Standby lead (5VSB) to
meet the standard ATX specification.
Step 9. 5V Stand-by indicator LED (LED 1)
This LED is lit whenever the 5V Standby voltage coming from the ATX powersupply is
available. If you have connected your ATX powersupply to the mains, LED 1 should be lit.

As an example: If the user sets the CPU Host/PCI clock to 105/35 MHz, the options will be:
Ø
Ø
Ø
Equal to the CPU FSB clock = 105 MHz
CPU FSB clock – PCI clock = 70 MHz
CPU FSB clock + PCI clock = 140 MHz
Depending on the DRAM speeds, the user can select one of these speeds through the
BIOS.

(4) AGP Clock
The AGP clock is derived from the CPU FSB frequency. It is divided by 1.0, 1.5 or 2.0
depending on the setting of JP2 and JP7:
Please refer to page 9 for the JP2 and JP7 settings.
(5) Vcore Voltage Adjust
The CPU notifies the board of what core voltage it requires by its VID outputs. The on-board
voltage regulator uses the VID code to set the core voltage. If the Vcore Voltage Adjust is
set to normal, the Vcore will be exactly what the VID code specifies. If an adjustment
percentage is selected the Vcore will be that percentage higher than the VID code specifies.
For instance the CPU VID code specifies 2.0V and the Vcore Voltage adjust is set to +10.0%
the actual CPU Voltage will be 2.2V. This function should only be used if the CPU is running
on FSB Frequencies beyond the CPU specifications, note that SOYO does not guarantee
system stability if this item is not set to normal.

Your motherboard comes with a hardware monitoring IC. By installing this utility Temperature,
Fan speed and Voltages can be monitored. It is also possible to set alarms when current
system values exceed or fall below pre-set values.
This utility comes with a preset monitoring rage for the CPU voltage. However, the core voltage
of the processor you purchased may fall out of this preset range, so you may need to adjust the
pre-set value. Please refer to the SY-6VBA 133 Motherboard’s CD manual for the details.
