INTRODUCTION
Introduction
Product Description
The ET900 board incorporates the Mobile Intel® 945GM Express
Chipset for Embedded Computing, consisting of the Intel® 945GM
Graphic Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) and Intel® I/O Controller
Hub 7-M (ICH7-M), an optimized integrated graphics solution with a
533MHz and 667MHz front-side bus. Dimensions of the board are
95mm x 125mm.
The integrated powerful 3D graphics engine, based on Intel® Graphics
Media Accelerator 950 (Intel® GMA 950) architecture, operates at core
speeds of up to 400 MHz. It features a low-power design and is validated
with the Intel® Core Duo/Solo on 65nm process. With DDR2 667MHz
SO-DIMM socket on board, the board supports up to 2GB of DDR2
system memory.
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 supports a unique intelligent
memory management scheme called Dynamic Video Memory
Technology (DVMT). DVMT handles diverse applications by providing
the maximum (224MB) availability of system memory for general
computer usage, while supplying additional graphics memory when a
3D-intensive application requests it. The Intel GMA 950 graphics
architecture also takes advantage of the high-performance Intel
processor. Intel GMA 950 graphics supports Dual Independent Display
technology.
The main features of the board are:
Supports COM ETX Type II Module pin-out definitions
Supports Intel® CoreTM Duo/Solo processors
Supports up to 533/667MHz FSB
One DDR2 SDRAM SO-DIMM, Max. 2GB
Intel® 945GM Express VGA for CRT / LVDS
Intel® 945GM Integrated VGA; Supports CRT / LVDS
Supports up to six x1 PCI-E, one x16 PCI-E, four PCI

INTRODUCTION
Installing the Processor
The ET900 is available with a processor socket on board or with an
Intel® processor on board. In the case that your ET900 comes a Socket
479 processor socket for Intel® Pentium® M or Celeron® M processors,
follow the instructions below regarding the processor installation.
The processor socket comes with a screw to secure the processor. As
shown in the left picture below, loosen the screw first before inserting
the processor. Place the processor into the socket by making sure the
notch on the corner of the processor corresponds with the notch on the
inside of the socket. Once the processor has slide into the socket, fasten
the screw. Refer to the figures below.
NOTE: Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in
total contact to avoid CPU overheating problem that would
cause your system to hang or be unstable.

INTRODUCTION
Installing the Memory
The ET900 COM Express CPU module accommodates 200-pin
DDR2-533 and DDR2-667 SODIMM memory modules with capacities
up to 1GB. Non-ECC is supported.
Installing and Removing Memory Modules
To install the DDR2 modules, locate the memory slot on the board and
perform the following steps:
1. Hold the DDR2 module so that the key of the DDR2 module align
with those on the memory slot. Insert the module into the socket at a
slight angle (approximately 30 degrees). Note that the socket and
module are both keyed, which means that the module can be installed
only in one direction.
2. To seat the memory module into the socket, apply firm and even
pressure to each end of the module until you feel it slip down into the
socket.
3. With the module properly seated in the socket, rotate the module
downward. Continue pressing downward until the clips at each end
lock into position.
4. To remove the DDR2 module, press the clips with both hands.

Connectors on ET900
J2, J3: COM Express Type 2 Connectors
The Type 2 connectors come in two 220-pin 0.5mm pitch receptacles.
They include PCI, IDE, GBE and up to 22 general-purpose PCIE lanes
(PCIE 0-5 and PCIE 16-31). For most Type 2 implementations, it is
expected that PCIE lanes 16-31 are used for graphics. Hence they are
designated PEG lanes 0-15 in the following table. Modules
implementing Pin out Type 2, such as the ET900, uses the pin-out
shown.

BIOS SETUP
BIOS Introduction
The Award BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your
computer system’s ROM supports Intel processors. The BIOS provides
critical low-level support for a standard device such as disk drives, serial
ports and parallel ports. It also adds virus and password protection as
well as special support for detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling
the entire system.
BIOS Setup
The Award BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the
system configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores
the Setup utility. When you turn on the computer, the Award BIOS is
immediately activated. Pressing the <Del> key immediately allows you
to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit late pressing the <Del>
key, POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its test routines, thus
preventing you from invoking the Setup. If you still wish to enter Setup,
restart the system by pressing the ”Reset” button or simultaneously
pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. You can also restart by
turning the system Off and back On again. The following message will
appear on the screen:
Press <DEL> to Enter Setup
In general, you press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to
select, the <PgUp> and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help
and <Esc> to quit.
When you enter the Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will appear on
the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup
functions and exit choices.

The section below the setup items of the Main Menu displays the control
keys for this menu. At the bottom of the Main Menu just below the
control keys section, there is another section, which displays information
on the currently highlighted item in the list.
Note:
If the system cannot boot after making and saving system
changes with Setup, the Award BIOS supports an override to
the CMOS settings that resets your system to its default.
Warning: It is strongly recommended that you avoid making any
changes to the chipset defaults. These defaults have been
carefully chosen by both Award and your system
manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum performance
and reliability. Changing the defaults could cause the system
to become unstable and crash in some cases.

BIOS SETUP
Standard CMOS Setup
“Standard CMOS Setup” choice allows you to record some basic
hardware configurations in your computer system and set the system
clock and error handling. If the board is already installed in a working
system, you will not need to select this option. You will need to run the
Standard CMOS option, however, if you change your system hardware
configurations, the onboard battery fails, or the configuration stored in
the CMOS memory was lost or damaged.

“Bootable add-in Cards” which refers to other external devices.
Virus Warning
If this option is enabled, an alarm message will be displayed when trying to write
on the boot sector or on the partition table on the disk, which is typical of the
virus.
CPU L1 and L2 Cache
Cache memory is additional memory that is faster than conventional DRAM
(system memory). CPUs from 486-type on up contain internal cache memory,
and most, but not all, modern PCs have additional (external) cache memory.
When the CPU requests data, the system transfers the requested data from the
main DRAM into cache memory, for even faster access by the CPU. These allow
you to enable (speed up memory access) or disable the cache function.

Boot Other Device
These fields allow the system to search for an OS from other devices
other than the ones selected in the First/Second/Third Boot Device.
Swap Floppy Drive
This item allows you to determine whether or not to enable Swap Floppy
Drive. When enabled, the BIOS swaps floppy drive assignments so that
Drive A becomes Drive B, and Drive B becomes Drive A. By default,
this field is set to Disabled.
Boot Up Floppy Seek
This feature controls whether the BIOS checks for a floppy drive while
booting up. If it cannot detect one (either due to improper configuration
or its absence), it will flash an error message.
Boot Up NumLock Status
This allows you to activate the NumLock function after you power up
the system.
Gate A20 Option
This field allows you to select how Gate A20 is worked. Gate A20 is a
device used to address memory above 1 MB.

Typematic Delay (Msec)
When the typematic rate is enabled, this item allows you to set the time
interval for displaying the first and second characters. By default, this
item is set to 250msec.
Security Option
This field allows you to limit access to the System and Setup. The default
value is Setup. When you select System, the system prompts for the User
Password every time you boot up. When you select Setup, the system
always boots up and prompts for the Supervisor Password only when the
Setup utility is called up.
APIC Mode
APIC stands for Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller. The
default setting is Enabled.
MPS Version Control for OS
This option is specifies the MPS (Multiprocessor Specification) version
for your operating system. MPS version 1.4 added extended
configuration tables to improve support for multiple PCI bus
configurations and improve future expandability. The default setting is
1.4.
OS Select for DRAM > 64MB
This option allows the system to access greater than 64MB of DRAM
memory when used with OS/2 that depends on certain BIOS calls to
access memory. The default setting is Non-OS/2.
Report No FDD For WIN 95
If you are using Windows 95/98 without a floppy disk drive, select
Enabled to release IRQ6. This is required to pass Windows 95/98's SCT
test. You should also disable the Onboard FDC Controller in the
Integrated Peripherals screen when there's no floppy drive in the system.
If you set this feature to Disabled, the BIOS will not report the missing
floppy drive to Win95/98.
Small Logo (EPA) Show
The EPA logo appears at the right side of the monitor screen when the
system is boot up. The default setting is Enabled.
