3.1 Introduction

The D845BG and D845PT 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 D845BG and D845PT 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 PT84510A.86A.

When the D845BG or D845PT 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.
