1.3 Special features
1.3.1 Product highlights
Latest processor technology
The PR-DLSW motherboard supports the Intel
604-pin surface mount ZIF sockets. The processor features the Intel
NetBurst™ micro-architecture that includes hyper-pipelined technology, a
rapid execution engine, a 400MHz system bus, and an execution trace cache
to offer a significant increase in performance. See page 2-4 for more
information.
®
Xeon processor via dual
®
DDR memory support
Employing the Double Data Rate (DDR) memory technology, the PRDLSW motherboard supports up to 12GB of system memory using
PC2100/1600 registered ECC DDR DIMMs. The ultra-fast 200MHz
memory bus doubles the speed of the PC100 SDRAM to deliver the
required bandwidth for the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet
applications. See page 2-10.
Dual-channel Ultra-160 SCSI
The LSI® 53C1010R 64-bit/66MHz PCI SCSI controller is onboard to
support dual-channel Ultra-160 SCSI connectors that provide high-speed
data transfer interfaces.
Advanced 64-bit PCI-X slots
The 64-bit/133MHz PCI-X slots onboard maximizes I/O bandwidth for the
next generation 64-bit PCI-X cards that support 133MHz bus. The PCI-X
specification 1.0a allows full peer-to-peer transactions between PCI buses
and provides options for intelligent I/O and server management cards.
AGP Pro 4X slot
The motherboard comes with an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) Pro 4X
slot for 3.3V/1.5V AGP cards. The slot supports 1X, 2X, or 4X mode bus to
support high performance 3D graphics applications.
Onboard LAN
The motherboard comes with the Intel® 82551QM Fast Ethernet controller
to fully support 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet networking.
1-2
Chapter 1: Product introduction
Onboard audio
The C-Media CMI8738/PCI-SX audio controller is onboard to provide
HTRF-based 3D positional audio (C3DX™) 4-channel audio output.
ATA/100 IDE support
The dual-channel bus master IDE connectors comply with the ATA/100
protocol and supports ATA/100, Multi-Word DMA Mode2, PIO modes 3 & 4
IDE devices such as ATAPI IDE CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, ZIP, and LS-120
drives.

1.3.2 Value-added solutions
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASUS ASIC to prevent
overheating and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM) is
monitored for timely failure detection. The system voltage levels are
monitored to ensure stable supply of current for critical components.
Dual function power switch
While the system is ON, pressing the power switch for less than 4 seconds
puts the system to sleep mode or to soft-off mode, depending on the BIOS
setting. Pressing the power switch for more than 4 seconds lets the
system enter the soft-off mode regardless of the BIOS setting.
Wake-Up support
The motherboard includes Wake-On-LAN, Wake-On-Ring, and BIOS
Wake-Up features.
ACPI ready
The Advanced Configuration power Interface (ACPI) provides more energy
saving features for operating systems that support OS Direct Power
Management (OSPM).
Concurrent PCI
This feature allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master buses to the
memory and processor.
Chassis intrusion detection
With this feature, the chassis intrusion circuitry logs “chassis-open” events
into the system BIOS. The onboard battery supports the chassis intrusion
detection feature even when the normal power is removed.
Smart BIOS
The 4Mbit firmware gives an easy-to-use interface that provides more
control and protection to the motherboard. The BIOS has a boot block
write protection and HD/SCSI/MO/ZIP/CD/Floppy boot selection, and is
Year 2000 certified.
1-4
Chapter 1: Product introduction
Compliance
Both the BIOS and the hardware levels of the motherboard meet the
stringent requirements for SDG 2.0 certification. The new SDG 2.0
requirements for systems and components are based on the following
high-level goals: support for Plug-and-Play compatibility and power
management for configuring and managing all system components, 32-bit
device drivers, and installation procedures for Windows NT/2000/XP.
Color-coded connectors and descriptive icons make identification easy as
required by the PC ‘99 specification.

ASUS PR-DLSW motherboard
2.1 Motherboard installation
Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis
to ensure that the motherboard fits into it. The PR-DLSW uses the
extended ATX form factor that measures 12 in x 13 in (30.5 cm x 33cm).
Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the
motherboard. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and
damage motherboard components.
2.1.1 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.
2.1.2 Screw holes
Place 11 screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the
motherboard to the chassis.
Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so may damage the
motherboard.
Place this side towards
the rear of the chassis

2.3 Before you proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard
components or change any motherboard settings.
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
2. 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.
3. Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded
antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.
5. 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.

2.4 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
2.4.1 Overview
The motherboard comes with dual surface mount 604-pin Zero Insertion
Force (ZIF) sockets. The sockets are designed for the Intel Processor in
the 603/604-pin package with 512KB L2 cache. The processor includes
the Intel® NetBurst™ micro-architecture that features the hyper-pipelined
technology, rapid execution engine, 400MHz system bus, and execution
trace cache. Together, these attributes improve system performance by
allowing higher core frequencies, faster execution of integer instructions,
and data transfer rate of up to 3.2GB/s.
You may install Intel
®
Xeon™ CPUs that support Hyper-Threading
Technology. For more information on Hyper-Threading Technology, visit

Gold Mark
PR-DLSW Socket 604
Note in the illustration that the CPU has a gold triangular mark on one
corner. This mark indicates the processor Pin 1 that should match a
specific corner of the CPU socket.
Incorrect installation of the CPU into the socket may bend the pins and
severely damage the CPU!
2-4
The motherboard supports either one or two CPUs. If you are installing
only one CPU, you MUST install it in CPU socket 1.
