Modules) and 2pcs 168-pin, 64-bit DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Modules)
of 4, 8, 16, 32MB to form a memory size between 8MB to 128MB.
The SIMMs can be 60ns or 70ns Fast Page Mode (FPM), or Enhanced
Data Out (EDO) (BEDO & Parity are not supported). SIMMs must
be installed in pairs so that each bank (see Map of ATX-586)contains
64-bit of same memory chips.
DIMM can be used as one bank. It is available for 3.3v (power level)
Unbuffered Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) or EDO DRAM of either 8,
16, 32, 64, 128MB, to form a memory size between 8MB to 128MB.
SIMM and DIMM can be used together, but the limitations are two
banks and max memory size 128MB. 2pcs 72-pin SIMM is one bank
and 1pce DIMM is one bank too.

38
accessed in a PCI Bus Master IDE fashion. Contact the
manufacturer for more information.
device
2. Verify the length of the cables that are being used to connect the
IDE or ATAPI devices to the primary and secondary PIIX IDE
interfaces. The length of these cables from END-TO-END
should not exceed 18 inches (0.46 m). Furthermore, the
capacitance of the cable should not exceed 35 pF.
3. A conflict between the PIIX Bus Master IDE driver and a real-
mode ATAPI CD-ROM or IDE device driver may occur if the real-
mode driver references have not been properly removed from the
AUTOEXEC.BAT and/or CONFIG.SYS files. This conflict
occurs when the PIIX Bus Master IDE driver attempts to access
the legacy ISA IDE resources to control the PIIX. ALL
REFERENCES TO REAL-MODE DRIVERS (IDE or ATAPI) IN
THE TOEXEC.BAT
AND CONFIG.SYS MUST BE REMOVED.
****************************************************************************

8E. Revision History
8F. Release Testing Information
****************************************************************************
8A. IDE DEVICES SUPPORTED BY THE DRIVER
****************************************************************************
The Intel PIIX Bus Master IDE driver supports only specific ATA/ATAPI
device types. The Intel driver should not be installed if the system is
equipped with any of the non-supported ATAPI devices.
The Intel PIIX Bus Master IDE driver supports the following devices
connected to the PIIX IDE interface:
- ATA fixed disk
- ATAPI CD-ROM devices
40
The Intel driver does not support the following types of device in the
system:
- ATAPI Tape Drives
- ATAPI CD-ROM Changer Drives
- ATAPI DVD-ROM Drives
- ATAPI Writeable CD Drives
- ATA/ATAPI ZIP*, LS-120*, Cartridge, Optical, Removable
Media Drives
- IDE Fixed Disk Drives larger than 8.4GBbytes
During initialization, the driver will auto-identify all the devices
connected to the PIIX IDE interface. Depending on the capabilities
of the devices connected to the system, the driver will initialize the
PIIX IDE interface for bus mastering operation.
Only drives identified as bus master capable will be accessed as a bus
master; all other drives will be accessed in a PIO-only fashion. In
general, bus mastering is possible for ATA/ATAPI devices that support
the following DMA timing modes:
Single Word DMA Mode 2
Multi-Word DMA Mode 1
Multi-Word DMA Mode 2
Ultra DMA Mode 0
Ultra DMA Mode 1
Ultra DMA Mode 2
These devices will be accessed by the driver in either a bus mastering
or a PIO-fashion, depending on the specific transfer conditions.
Devices that do not support the DMA timing modes listed above, or
whose PIO timings are faster than their DMA timings, will be accessed
in a PIO-fashion ONLY.
For more information and a list of tested devices, see the 'Devices
Tested' section of this document.
****************************************************************************
8B.
APPLICATIONS SUPPORTED BY THE DRIVER

****************************************************************************
8C.
LARGE IDE FIXED DISK DRIVE (>528MB) SUPPORT BY
THE DRIVER
****************************************************************************
Intel recommends that the "Auto" mode of disk recognition should be
used in most systems' BIOS setup option when installing new disk
drives. Some older systems may not support the large disk drives
because of BIOS limitations. Users are encouraged to contact their
system provider for the system or BIOS upgrade before installing the
Intel driver for large drive support.
Intel PIIX Bus Master IDE driver for Windows 95* supports the
following fixed disk geometry translation mechanisms. Do not install
the Intel driver if the system does not support them or the drive is not
configured to use them.
- Standard Cylinder-Head-Sector (CHS) translation in BIOS
- Logical Block Addressing (LBA) mode
- BIOS Disk Services INT13h, Function 08h to report the drive
geometry parameters
The Intel PIIX Bus Master IDE driver for Windows 95* does not support
the certain disk geometry translation mechanisms. The user should
use the default Microsoft Windows 95* IDE driver if the system uses
the following translation mechanisms.
- All other BIOS translation schemes not supported by
42
the driver.
- Any software translation mechanisms, such as Ontrack
Disk Manager*, EZ-Drive*, or master boot record
hooking.
****************************************************************************
8D. RELEASE-SPECIFIC TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION
****************************************************************************
Verifying the installation of the driver and other generic troubleshooting
is discussed in the "TROUBLESHOOTING" section above. This
section describes release-specific troubleshooting.
This section contains a list of known problems with certain system
configurations discovered during testing of the driver. A list of all
storage devices tested with the driver is given below in the "RELEASE
TESTING INFORMATION" section of this document.
If the solution given to any of the problems listed below is to de-install
the driver, follow the de-installation instructions outlined above in the
"DE-INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE" section.
In general, if the system fails to operate reliably, the recommendation
isto de-install the PIIX Bus Master driver.
Q1> Windows 95* doesn't recognize or see CD-ROM drive on the
secondary IDE
interface after system is restarted.
A1> Some ATAPI CD-ROM drives may need to be placed on the
same cable, as a slave, to a Hard Disk drive, which is
configured as a Master. Below is a list of some CD-
ROM drives that meet this requirement. Generally,
the exception of the devices listed below, the
recommended configuration for a single ATAPI CD-ROM drive
on a cable is as a Master.

Q2> There is an Exclamation(!) or Question(?) mark next to the
primary or secondary IDE controller instance under Device
Manager where devices are connected.
-OR-
The secondary IDE controller instance is missing under
Device Manager and devices are connected to this cable.
A2> There are several possible causes for this issue:
1. Your CD-ROM drive may need be configurated as a
slave drive. Please refer to Item A1 for a detailed
description.
2. There is a hardware conflict in the system. Only TWO
IDE
channels are allowed in a system. The driver will not
operate on
systems that have a non-Intel IDE
controller or a sound card with an IDE interface. The
driver should not be de-installed on these systems.
3. The system BIOS may not have initialized the
82371xB IDE controller properly. Again, please
contact your system provider for BIOS upgrade. If the
system fails to operate reliably, de-install the driver.
Q3> The system does not operate reliably or fails to boot when
the driver is installed.
-OR-
The system fails to boot in NORMAL (non SAFE-MODE)
mode when the driver is installed.
A3> Please de-install the driver. Please make sure that your

PART II. Update Flash BIOS
Because the BIOS of Pentium Triton main board is Flash BIOS, there
are two methods to update BIOS. Before programming the BIOS.
( THIS MODIFICATION IS UNDER THE SUPPLIER‘ S PERMISSION
AND FOR QUALIFIED ENGINEER.)
BIOS is writeable so that don‘ t write anything in the BIOS local
address from FFF0:E000 - FFF0:FFFF. Keep BIOS ROM data is
available.
From the BIOS of new main board to old main
board:
1. Perform the command, AWDFLASH. The command is
in the BIOS of new main board, sub directory of AWARD.
2. Save BIOS.OLD and save it to another disk.
3. Program the BIOS.OLD of the disk to old main board.
From disk to old main board:
1.
Get the disk from your supplier. Usually EIDE Driver
include the update function.
2.
Program the file, TX.BIN, of disk to old main board.

Hardware
Installation For TX2
TX2 is for AT platform for single processors design, including Enhance
I/O chip (SMC 669 compatible) resulting in ultra IDE performance.
Another difference is that TX2 can be installed AHA Wide SCSI chip
to offer internal or external SCSI driver. It puts a RAID slot also. Of
course, TX2 supports Intel Pentium 75-233Mhz, MMX, AMD K5/K6-PR
233, CYRIX CX6x86 200+. Not to mention, it has Auto Switching
between 3.3v and 2.8v CPU.
You can review the content of Preface for parts of specification. The
main differences between ATX586 and TX2 is as follows:
1. ATX586 is ATX factor, but TX2 is AT factor;
2. ATX586 supports dual processors, but TX2 is only for single
processor;
3. ATX586 can’ t be installed SCSI on board, but TX2 does;
4. TX2 is only with 3 * 32-bit PCI, 3 * 16 bit ISA Slots, and 1 RAID for
TX2.
TX2 also has smart setting design. In words, set a quick jumper to
change CPU and a connector module for front panel.

The board supports 2pcs 72-pin, 32-bit SIMMs (Single Inline Memory
Modules) and 2pcs 168-pin, 64-bit DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Modules)
of 4, 8, 16, 32MB to form a memory size between 8MB to 128MB.
The
59
SIMMs can be 60ns or 70ns Fast Page Mode (FPM), or Enhanced
Data Out (EDO) (BEDO & Parity are not supported). SIMMs must
be installed in pairs so that each bank (see Map of TX2)contains 64-bit
of same memory chips.
DIMM can be used as one bank. It is available for 3.3v (power level)
Unbuffered Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) or EDO DRAM of either 8,
16, 32, 64, 128MB, to form a memory size between 8MB to 128MB.
SIMM and DIMM can be used together, but the limitations are two
banks and max memory size 128MB. 2pcs 72-pin SIMM is one bank
and 1pce DIMM is one bank too.
