well there are a few things you need to do.

#1: State what motherboard you have.

#2: State what brand and model it is.

#3: State what the bios id string is.

#4: State if it's a retail or OEM mb. If oem, what brand and model pc is it installed in?

Award is only the bios maker. They didn't build the motherboard. This might aid you in iding your hardware:
