This chapter describes the motherboard features and the new technologies it supports.

Product

introduction

1.1 Special features

Latest processor technology

This motherboard comes with a 775-pin surface mount Land Grid Array (LGA)

socket designed for the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor in the 775-land package. Supporting the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor with 1066 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB),

this motherboard is equipped with Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology and is fully

compatible with the Intel® 05A/04A processors.

See page 1-6 for details.

64-bit CPU support

64-bit computing, the next generation technology to replace current 32-bit

architecture, delivers advanced system performance, faster memory access and increased productivity. This motherboard provides excellent compatibility and

exibility by supporting either 64-bit or 32-bit architecture.

Dual-Core CPU

Enjoy the extraordinary CPU power from the latest dual-core CPU. The advanced processing technology contains two physical CPU cores with individually dedicated

L2 cache to satisfy the rising demand for more powerful processing capability.

PCI Express™ interface

The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect technology

that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point-to-point serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible with existing PCI

specications. See page 1-19 for details.

Serial ATA I technology

The motherboard supports the Serial ATA I technology through the Serial ATA

interfaces and the VIA VT8237R+ chipset. The SATA specication allows for thinner, more exible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate. See page 1-25 for details.

Onboard RAID solution

The onboard VIA VT8237R+ chipset allows RAID 0, RAID 1 and JBOD conguration for four SATA connectors.

1-2 Chapter 1: Product introduction

USB 2.0 technology

The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specication, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the 12 Mbps bandwidth on USB

1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with USB 1.1. See page 1-23 and 1-28 for details.

AUDIO CODEC

The Realtek ALC655 is an AC”97 CODEC that allows 6-channel audio playback.

The audio CODEC provides six DAC channels for 5.1 surround sound, AUX, and Line In stereo inputs.

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.

• Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity

• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.

• Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard,

peripherals, and/or components.

Onboard LED

The motherboard comes with a standby power LED that lights up to indicate that the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode. This is a reminder that you should shut down the system and unplug the power cable before removing or plugging in any motherboard component. The illustration below shows the location of the onboard LED.

1-4 Chapter 1: Product introduction

P5VDC-TVM SE

1.3 Motherboard overview

Before you install the motherboard, study the conguration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard ts into it.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.

1.3.1 Placement direction

When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the chassis in the correct orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in the image below.

1.3.2 Screw holes

Place eight (8) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the

motherboard to the chassis.

Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.

Place this side towards the rear of the chassis

P5VDC-TVM SE

P5VDC-TVM SE CPU Socket 775

The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for the

Intel® Pentium® 4/Intel® Pentium® D processor in the 775-land package.

•

Your boxed Intel® Pentium® 4 LGA775 processor package should come with installation instructions for the CPU, fan and heatsink assembly. If the instructions in this section do not match the CPU documentation, follow the latter.

• Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the PnP cap is on the socket and the socket pins are not bent. Contact your retailer immediately

if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any damage to the PnP cap/socket pins/motherboard components. ASUS will shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is shipment/transit-related.

• Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process Return

Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA775 socket.

•

The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket pins resulting

from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/incorrect

removal of the PnP cap.

•

Due to chipset limitation.The motherboard does not support Enhanced

Intel SpeedStep technology, C1E and TM2 technology.

•

This motherboard does not support Intel® Pentium

Extreme Edition.

Processor

1.4.1 Installling the CPU

To install a CPU:

1. Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.

ASUS P5VDC-TVM SE 1-7

Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing towards you and the load lever is on your left.

2. Press the load lever with your thumb (A) and move it to the left (B) until it is

released from the retention tab.

Retention tab

Load lever

To prevent damage to the socket pins, do not remove the PnP cap unless you are installing a CPU.

3. Lift the load lever in the direction of the arrow to a 135º angle.

4. Lift the load plate with your thumb

and forenger to a 100º angle (A),

then push the PnP cap from the load plate window to remove (B).

6. Close the load plate (A), then push

the load lever (B) until it snaps into the retention tab.

The CPU ts in only one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the

socket to prevent bending the connectors on the socket and damaging the CPU!

Notes on Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology

• This motherboard supports Intel® Pentium® 4 CPUs in the 775-land package with Hyper-Threading Technology.

• Hyper-Threading Technology is supported under Windows

Server and Linux 1.7.x (kernel) and later versions only. Under Linux, use

the Hyper-Threading compiler to compile the code. If you are using any other operating systems, disable the Hyper-Threading Technology item in the BIOS to ensure system stability and performance.

• Installing Windows

• Make sure to enable the Hyper-Threading Technology item in BIOS before installing a supported operating system.

• For more information on Hyper-Threading Technology, visit www.intel.

com/info/hyperthreading.

XP Service Pack 1 or later version is recommended.

XP/2003

To use the Hyper-Threading Technology on this motherboard:

1. Install an Intel

Pentium® 4 CPU in the 775-land package that supports

Hyper-Threading Technology.

2. Power up the system and enter the BIOS Setup (see Chapter 2: BIOS

setup). Under the Advanced Menu, make sure that the item Hyper-Threading Technology is set to Enabled. The item appears only if you installed a CPU that supports Hyper-Threading Technology.

3. Reboot the computer.
