            ***** BIOS XANA FOXTROT rev. 102 release note *****

BIOS 1.02  is different  from preview  version due the hardware implementation
of external RTC to solve the problem  of internal  VIA 586 chip set CMOS part.
This BIOS  automatically detect  the presence of  external or internal RTC and
enable or disable this function.
To do this BIOS 1.02 has some BOOT BLOCK modification due the  pin assignament
of VIA 586 chip.
In order to modify the BOOT BLOCK code one  utility is made from TRIGEM but un_
furtunatly this utility works fine only in case of NO INTEL FLASH EPROM.
In case of prototype system we should have some  motherboards with INTEL FLASH
EPROM so this utility don't have to be used.

In case of rev. B  motherboards (samples  received from  TRIGEM on march 24/97
with ext. RTC)  BIOS 1.02  is already implemented  and BOOT BLOCK code is modi_
fied.

In case  of  BA2325 ( first 200 motherboards that we  received from  TRIGEM) no 
INTEL  FLASH EPROM are mounted  so we can use the  BBLOCK  batch  file that run 
the  UPDATE  utility to modify  the BOOT BLOCK  code in order to have the right
pin assignment.

In case of prototype we can  procedee without  BOOT BLOCK  modification and in
this way we have the following limitations:
1)we can not change the speaker volume by setup
2)in case of power on/off power supply  after shutdown from WIN 95 system does
  not powered off also if  APM is enabled.

No BOOT BLOCK update are necessary in the future to upgrade BIOS 1.02  to next
revision.
