Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of booting computer program, particularly a kind of method of the power on mode that automaticallyes switch.
Background technology
See also shown in Figure 1, dual inline memory module (Dual In-line Memory Modules, be called for short: DIMM) 1 with single memory module in upright arrangement (Single In-line Memory Modules is called for short: SIMM) be the minitype circuit board that contains multi-bank memory chip (Memory Chip).The configuration format of dual inline memory module 1 has 72,144 and 168 terminals (pin), the left and right sides edge joint of the golden plug of so-called " two (Dual) " expression is to different signals, it includes random access memory (Random AccessMemory, be called for short RAM) chip, can be described as by two list memory models merging in upright arrangement and form, it also can the single or double manufacturing as single memory module in upright arrangement.If dual inline memory module 1 is installed on the motherboard, do not need paired interpolation dual inline memory module 1, can mix pairing.For example, you can (Mega Byte, be called for short: dual inline memory module 1 MB) be installed on the slot 2 on 32MB dual inline memory module 1 next door with one 64 megabit tuple.Dual inline memory module 1 is with the difference of single memory module in upright arrangement, the terminal of the former circuit board both sides, its independent circuits is respectively arranged, and the circuit of the terminal of latter both sides is connected together, anticipate promptly, the terminal of dual inline memory module 1 both sides respectively has it specifically defined, and make its access path that broad is provided, make its single memory module in upright arrangement of data transmission speed fast.
Dual inline memory module 1 with 168 terminals, access path to its memory chip is 64 bits (bit), and, if central processing unit (Central Processing Unit, be called for short: bus-bar CPU) (BUS) equally is the access path of 64 bits, just only need do once complete access (Access) action to storer, so a motherboard (Main Board, or title Mother Board) on, only needs a dual inline memory module 1.And also comprise the formula ROM (read-only memory) of erasing (Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory in this dual inline memory module 1, be called for short: EPROM) for ROM-BIOS (Basic Input Output System, be called for short: BIOS) store various parameters, and, set a chipset (Chipset) and reach optimum condition according to these parameters.On high-order PC or workstation, 1 of the dual inline memory module of using is based on 200 pins, the access bus-bar of 72 bits is provided, wherein 60 nibbles are data itself, (Error Checking and Correction Code is called for short: ECC) use all the other eight bits as the error detection sign indicating number.
And ROM-BIOS is the most basic in the booting computer startup, when dispatching from the factory for motherboard, with the start various basic parameters or burning program in Flash ROM, meaning is that its basic functions is exactly the basic setting value that is used for storing computer, and the user also can set the correlation parameter of each hardware in power on mode and this computer by ROM-BIOS simultaneously.General computer is when start, and the testing that this ROM-BIOS can be started shooting (Power On Self Test) is to determine the basic configuration of each hardware of computer.For example, during general booting computer, this ROM-BIOS can be carried out three times access test to storer and (then only can be done once if be set as after the enabled, the time that can accelerate to start shooting), and then it is stored various parameters, be stored in the formula of the erasing ROM (read-only memory) of this dual inline memory module 1, make the software (as: operating system) of follow-up startup, can obtain the configuration setting of each hardware of this computer.
With present most of computer, its motherboard mostly uses Intel 815E chipset, this chipset has only the slot 2 of supporting 3 dual inline memory module I, totally 6 storage address lines (CSA#0～CSA#5), or be called thesaurus (banks), but these computers are in order to provide more flexible use-pattern, and with the 3rd slot 2 and the 4th slot 2 of its motherboard, shared storage address signal CSA#4 and CSA#5.Because such design, so in the time must using the 3rd slot 2 and the 4th slot 2 simultaneously, must only use Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (the SynchronousDynamic Random Access Memory of 1 thesaurus (banks), be called for short: SDRAM), be generally the SDRAM module of single face, otherwise ROM-BIOS only can detect the 3rd memory span on the slot 2, and can't detect the 4th memory span on the slot 2.
On the other hand, if only use a dual inline memory module 1 on computer, this dual inline memory module 1 must be installed in the 1st, 2 or 3 slot 2, otherwise the stored various parameters of ROM-BIOS, can't be when booting computer, be written in the dual inline memory module 1 of these slots 3, cause computer can't finish boot program smoothly.In addition, the configuration of the 1st and 2 slot 2 is to be set to pair state, if in the 1st and 2 slot 2, when the dual inline memory of installation module 1 is all arranged, this ROM-BIOS will be 2 of the 1st and 2 slots, these dual inline memory modules 1 are carried out interleaving access, and the various parameters that ROM-BIOS is stored are stored in respectively in these dual inline memory modules 1.
But, this ROM-BIOS is before the various parameters that it is stored are written into these dual inline memory modules 1, be to carry out repeatedly access test to these dual inline memory modules 1, it needs only and once detects the dual inline memory module 1 that is installed in the 1st or 2 slot 2, after the situation of distress condition or access errors is arranged, this ROM-BIOS will can not be written into its stored various parameters in these dual inline memory modules 1 again, make this computer can't finish boot program smoothly, with puzzlement and the inconvenience that causes in the use.
