Technical Notes:
BIOS Configuration Utility
Error History.
BIOS has an added Error History which can be accessed by pressing F9 when the POST Configuration Icon appears. The last three error codes will be displayed along with a brief explanation of the error.
SES Interface.
The BIOS Configuration Utility has an added third page which acts as the SES interface. It can be accessed by pressing F1 when the POST configuration icon appears on a cold boot or it by typing CONFIGUR at a DOS prompt.
Note: SES does not allow a normal POST when it has saved an application that was running when SES was entered. To exit SES, do soft boot [CTRL+ALT+DEL] when the Rapid Resume logo appears. Then power off, wait 10 seconds, and power on for normal boot.
Page three of the utility allows you to change the following options:
1. APM BIOS Mode [16- or 32-bit protected]
2. Rapid Resume [Enable/Disable]
3. Automatic Power Off [Set # of inactive minutes 15 to 90]
4. Initialise Adapter Cards [Yes, Automatic, No]
5. Standby [Set # of inactive minutes 15 to 90]
Enabling Rapid Resume.
1. Open Windows
2. Double click on PS/1 Tools Icon
3. Double click on PS/1 Fitness Icon
4. Double click on Rapid Resume Manager Icon
5. Click on Enable
6. Click on Setup
7. Set minutes of inactivity
8. Set Rapid Resume Task List to Enabled if you wish to see a list of open applications.
Enabling Standby.
1. Open Windows
2. Double-click on PS/1 Tools Icon
3. Double-click on PS/1 Fitness Icon
4. Double-click on Standby Icon
5. Enter number of minutes for inactivity
Rapid Resume.
Warning: Not all adapter card states are saved under Rapid Resume. Refer to SES Adapter Cards Tech Note.
Overview
o Current working environment is saved and restored
o Automatic power off saves energy when the computer is not in use
o Quick access to environment and applications after power on
Using Rapid Resume allows the computer to save the current working environment and power off. When the computer is powered on again, the previous working environment is restored. This allows quicker access to applications and the working environment. Rapid Resume will also automatically power off the computer after a period of inactivity.
Note: The system only recognises the keyboard, mouse or hard drive when monitoring for activity Printing, network communications and floppy drive actions are not considered activities. The system will power off if there is no actual mouse, keyboard or hard drive activity.
Turning off the computer using Rapid Resume.
Power off pressing the power switch on/off with Rapid Resume enabled causes the computer to save its state and power off. Other devices need to be powered off separately.
Power Strip.
If connected to a a power strip; turn the unit off first, then turn off the power strip.
System Beeps.
If you press the on/off button and the computer beeps three times, Rapid Resume cannot proceed. Press the on/off switch again. If you fail to press the on/off switch the system will power off however data and state info may not be saved.
Cancel Rapid Resume.
Pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL while the computer is turning off will cancel the Rapid Resume.
Turning on the computer using Rapid Resume.
When the computer is turned on with Rapid Resume enabled an abbreviated hardware test is performed and then the Rapid Resume process is started. The Rapid Resume logo appears and the computer state is restored.
To by-pass Rapid Resume.
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL when the Rapid Resume Logo appears. This will re-boot the system. Any data files that were not saved before powering off will be lost.
If the hardware configuration has changed, Rapid Resume may not be able to continue. A configuration message is displayed and the user is given two choices:
1. Cancel the Rapid Resume, previous state will be lost
2. Power off and return the system to it's previous hardware configuration.
Smart Energy System (SES).
The Smart Energy System provides two features to save energy:
Standby.
Allows the computer to enter a low power state after a period of inactivity. Computer uses less power but remains fully functional.
Rapid Resume.
Automatically powers off the computer when not in use, saving the current working environment which is restored when system is powered on again.
Inactivity is considered to be no keyboard, mouse, or hard disk activity. Printing, network, or floppy disk activity will not be detected and the machine will automatically power off during these activities.
SES can be used with any operating system that contains an APM driver. The following steps should be performed:
1. Make sure the APM driver is installed
2. Make sure the proper APM BIOS mode is set (OS/2 requires '16-bit Protected, Windows, 32-bit Protected)
3. Allocate a save area partition or use PS1PART.EXE in the PS/1Tools directory or on the Recovery Diskette
The PS1START.EXE program, which is run from the AUTOEXEC.BAT, allocates consecutive disk sectors for a hidden file, '_PS1SAVE.DAT', on the host drive. The file contains system information that is used by the Rapid Resume feature.
If PS1START.EXE cannot find consecutive disk sectors due to fragmentation, the following steps must be taken if the user wishes to continue using the Rapid Resume feature.
1. Temporarily reduce the size of the compressed disk DBLSPACE /SIZE C
2. Defrag the compressed drive DEFRAG C /F /H
3. Reboot
4. Resize the C drive DBLSPACE /SIZE /RES=4 C This will conserve 4MB of uncompressed space on the Host.
SES and Adapter Cards.
Adapter Cards may loose state information and not function properly after Rapid Resume. To solve this problem, the Initialise Adapter Cards option was added in the Configuration Utility.
There are three types of Adapter Cards:
1. Cards requiring no hardware initialisation i.e. modem cards
2. Cards requiring device drivers i.e. Sound cards. The ôInitialise Adapter Cardsö option must be set to ôYesö. This will force the system to execute the Config.sys and Autoexec.bat files.
3. Cards requiring device drivers and other software i.e. Token-ring cards. WARNING!!! These cards cannot be used with Rapid Resume
Changing the Display Resolution in Windows.
Normally, display resolution can be changed by:
1. Opening the PS/1 Tools Window
2. Double-clicking on the PS/1 Fitness Icon
3. Double-clicking on the Display Selection Icon
4. Selecting the Resolution and number of colors
5. Restarting Windows
In some cases the resolution you may want to use a resolution that is not listed under available resolutions or is 'grayed' out.
If this is the case, check the C:\VIDEO directory. This directory contains the CLMODE utility and at least one INF file i.e. GD5424.INF, GD5428.INF or OEMSETUP.INF.
If no OEMSETUP.INF file appears, rename the GD542x.INF file which matches the video chip on the system to OEMSETUP.INF.
e.g. ren GD5424.inf oemsetup.inf
You may now use Windows Setup to change the video driver:
1. Open Main Window
2. Double-click on Windows Setup Icon
3. Click on Options
4. Click on Change System Settings
5. Click on the down-arrow beside the Display box
6. Scroll or page-down and select 'Other Display (Requires disk from OEM)
7. Click OK
8. Delete the A:\ and enter C:\VIDEO
9. Click OK
10. Select the desired resolution
11. Click OK
12. Restart Windows when requested
If Windows does not restart properly or the video is unreadable, go to the DOS prompt, change to Windows directory and type SETUP. Select another resolution following basically the same steps as outlined above i.e. Select Display, Other Display, and enter C:\VIDEO when asked to insert a disk.
