Core BIOS Features

KHLB2 Service Manual

3.1

Multi Boot
The notebook can support Multi-Boot for selecting the boot sequence of Hard Drive, Removable Devices, CD-ROM/DVD Drive and Network in Setup.

3.2

Quiet Boot
Quiet Boot replaces the customary technical messages during POST with a more visually pleasing and comfortable display (OEM screen). During POST, right after the initialization of VGA, The notebook displays an illustration called the OEM screen during system boot instead of the traditional POST screen that displays the normal diagnostic messages. The OEM screen stays up until just before the operating system loads unless: Pressing <Esc> to switch to the POST screen and the boot process will continue until the end of POST. Pressing <F2> to enter Setup. Whenever POST detects a non-terminal error, it switches to the POST screen near the end of POST, just prior to prompting for a password. If the BIOS or an option ROM request keyboard input, the system switches over to the POST screen with prompts for entering the information. POST continues from there with the regular POST screen.

3.3

Boot Block
The Flash ROM used in many systems today offer the customer the advantage of electronically reprogramming the BIOS without physically replacing the BIOS ROM. This advantage, however, does create a possible hazard: power failures or fluctuations that occur during updating the Flash ROM can damage the BIOS code, making the system unbootable. To prevent this possible hazard, many Flash ROM include a special non-volatile region that can never be erased. This region, called the boot block, contains a fail-safe recovery routine. If the boot block finds corrupted BIOS, it prompts the end user to insert a diskette, from which it loads several files that replace the corrupted BIOS on the Flash ROM with an uncorrupted one.

3.4

New Interrupt 15h extensions


The BIOS must support the recently defined standard INT 15 extensions:

3.4.1 Big Memory

2-7

KHLB2 Service Manual Big memory support can report greater than 64 megabytes of RAM. The notebook supports the INT 15h big-memory reporting functions of E801h, E881h, and E820h. This feature reports all available extended memory (both below and above the 64MB limit) using both a real mode (E801h) and a 32-bit protected mode (E881h) interface. Operating systems can access the real-mode interface through the standard INT 15h call. They can access the protected-mode interface through a 32-bit interrupt call, much like the EISA protected-mode interface. The Microsoft-defined E820h function returns a complete memory map through a series of repeated calls.

3.5

Plug-n-Play (PnP) Support


To achieve the goal of PnP, POST conflict detection and resolution (CDR) module, and a run-time services module will be integrated into the system BIOS. The PnP runtime service module includes multiple interfaces so that the system can support the current DOS, as well as Win98 operating system that include specific support for the PnP BIOS specification.

Power Management for ACPI mode


Introduction
The notebook supports ACPI. The system will dynamically switch to ACPI mode for configuration and power management when an ACPI OS is loaded. When ACPI is not loaded and enabled, the power management function will be disabled.

5.2

System Time-outs
If the system is running in ACPI mode, system Time-outs is handled by the operating system. BIOS time-outs are disabled. System time-outs are set using the control panel power applet.

5.3

System Power Management


The overall system can be in one of the system power states as described below:
ACPI mode Mech. Off (G3) Soft Off (G2/S5) Working (G0/S0) S3 Sleeping State Power Management All devices in the system are turned off completely. OS initiated shutdown. All devices in the system are turned off completely. Individual devices such as the CPU and hard disk may be power managed in this state. CPU set power down VGA Suspend Audio Suspend Hard Disk Power Down ODD Power Down Super I/O Power Down S4 Sleeping State System Saves all system states and data onto disk prior to power off the whole system.

5.4

Device Power Management


Under ACPI mode, the device specific power management supported by this notebook includes the CPU throttling, monitor power management and the hard disk.

5.4.1 CPU power management ACPI mode

The operating system detects when the system is idle and places the CPU in one of the 3 CPU low power states (C1, C2 or C3) depending on how much latency it believes the system can afford. The C1 state is simply the CPU halt instruction. The C2 state is the CPU stop grant state. The C3 state is the CPU stops clock state. The CPU stays in this state until an interrupt occurs. 5.4.2 Hard Disk

The operating system uses the spin down timer of the hard drive to set time-outs. The BIOS time-out of the hard disk must be disabled in ACPI mode. The user can sets the hard disk spin down time-out in the control panel power applet. 5.4.3 Display Device The monitor can be turned off after a period of no activity based on the settings of the OS. 5.4.4 System Wake Up Sources The table below lists the wake up events for all low power states:

12.12 Three host interface channels support


12.12.1 Keyboard and mouse interface transfer port One channel is dedicated for the keyboard and mouse data transfer (host address 60h and 64h). The Keyboard and Mouse channel of KBC is compatible to the legacy 8042 host interface. It is base on two registers: Command/Data and Status The EC-FW interrupt generates IRQ1 (Keyboard) and IRQ12 (Mouse) for system.

12.12.2 Power management interface transfer port The other channel is for the power management function(host address 62h and 66h). The Power Management channel of KBC structure and operation are similar to those of the Keyboard/Mouse channel.

12.12.3 Extra transfer port This channel (host address 68h and 6Ch) was created to prevent conflict with the other channels.

KHLB2 Service Manual

12.13 Support three independent devices through PS/2 channel simultaneously


The KBC provides three data transfer channels. Each channel has two quasi-bidirectional signals that are used for the direct interface to an external keyboard, mouse or any other PS/2 compatible pointing device. The three channels are identical and thus allow the connector ports to be interchangeable.

12.14 Devices PnP configuration


12.14.1 Hot Plug-and-Play The KBC watches both external devices, checking if the devices have recently been plugged in or unplugged. The Hot plug ability of external PS2 devices feature detects the attachment or removal of these devices.

12.14.2 Hot swapping control When the device is plugged in, the software automatically initializes the state of that device, checks port swapping, and setup the KBC to handle dual-device operation. In dual-device operation, the internal device is set in the same state as external device. When the external device is unplugged, the internal device becomes the primary device.

12.15 ACPI EC interface Specification support


12.15.1 ACPI interface support The KBC provides support for Advance Configuration and Power Interface specification (ACPI) Embedded Controller interface.

12.15.2 EC command support The 2nd (Power Management) host interface channel of the KBC is dedicated to this function. All EC commands defined in the ACPI specification - Read/Write, Burst Mode enable/disable and Query command - are supported.

12.16 Internal keyboard change Configuration


12.16.1 US/UK/PA/JP country option The KBC supports three country selections by KBD_SEL application, and one EX type for another country. You can key in KBD_SEL get the syntax for your option at DOS prompt.

Testing and Troubleshooting:


The purpose of this chapter is to provide a systematic method of isolating problems you may have with the KHLB2 series Notebook Computer. We assume that you have a basic understanding of DOS-based computer systems as well as knowledge of standard troubleshooting procedures. This manual is written under the assumption that the problems are indeed related with Notebook itself. The improper usage and application software problems are excluded in this chapter. The system BIOS Beep Code is an integrated unit to detect some errors in the system board. This beep code will give immediate identification of certain system board problems. If the troubleshooting procedure is followed step by step, it can efficiently isolate the problem and the problem can be solved easily.
