3.1 Introduction
The D845HV and D845WN boards use an Intel/AMI BIOS that is stored in the Firmware Hub
(FWH) and can be updated using a disk-based program.
The FWH contains the BIOS Setup
program, POST, the PCI auto-configuration utility, and Plug and Play support.
The D845HV and D845WN boards support system BIOS shadowing, allowing the BIOS to
execute from 64-bit onboard write-protected system memory.
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code.
The
initial production BIOSs are identified as HV84510A.86A.
When the D845HV or D845WN board’s jumper is set to configuration mode and the computer is
powered-up, the BIOS compares the CPU version and the microcode version in the BIOS and
reports if the two match.
