3.1 Introduction

The Desktop Board D848PMB 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 BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code.

The

initial production BIOSs are identified as RC86510A.86A.

When the BIOS Setup configuration jumper is set to configure 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.

3.2 BIOS Flash Memory Organization

The Firmware Hub (FWH) includes a 4 Mbit (512 KB) symmetrical flash memory device.
