1.1.2 Intelligence
Dual Function Power Button
Depending on the setting in the “Soft-Off By PWR-BTTN” field of the Power Management Setup, this switch will allow the system to enter the Soft-Off or Suspend mode.
Wake-On-Ring
This feature allows the system that is in the Suspend mode or Soft Power Off mode to wake-up/power-on to respond to calls coming from an external modem or respond to calls from a modem PCI card that uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal to remotely wake up the PC.
Important:
If you are using a modem add-in card, the 5VSB power source of your power supply must support ≥720mA.
1
Wake-On-LAN
This feature allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC. It is supported via the onboard LAN por t or via a PCI LAN card that uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal. However, if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can power-on the system only through an IRQ or DMA interrupt.
Important:
The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support
720mA.
Wake-On-PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse
This function allows you to use the PS/2 keyboard or PS/2 mouse to power-on the system.
Important:
The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support
720mA.

Introduction
Wake-On-USB Keyboard/Mouse
The Wake-On-USB Keyboard/Mouse function allows you to use a USB keyboard or USB mouse to wake up a system from the S3 (STR - Suspend To RAM) state.
Important:
• If you are using the Wake-On-USB Keyboard/Mouse func­tion for 2 USB ports, the 5VSB power source of your power supply must support ≥1.5A.
• If you are using the Wake-On-USB Keyboard/Mouse func­tion for 3 or more USB ports, the 5VSB power source of your power supply must support ≥2A.
RTC Timer to Power-on the System
The RTC installed on the system board allows your system to automatically power-on on the set date and time.
ACPI
The system board is designed to meet the ACPI (Advanced Con­figuration and Power Interface) specification. ACPI has energy saving features that enables PCs to implement Power Management and Plug-and-Play with operating systems that suppor t OS Direct Power Management. Currently, only Windows the ACPI function. ACPI when enabled in the Power Management Setup will allow you to use the Suspend to RAM function.

With the Suspend to RAM function enabled, you can power-off the system at once by pressing the power button or selecting “Standby” when you shut down Windows to go through the sometimes tiresome process of closing files, applications and operating system. This is because the system is capable of storing all programs and data files during the entire operating session into RAM (Random Access Memory) when it powers-off. The oper ating session will resume exactly where you left off the next time you power-on the system.
Important:
The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support

Introduction
AC Power Failure Recovery
When power returns after an AC power failure, you may choose to either power-on the system manually, let the system power-on automatically or return to the state where you left off before power failure occurs.
Virus Protection
Most viruses today destroy data stored in hard drives. The system board is designed to protect the boot sector and par tition table of your hard disk drive.
1.2 Hyper-Threading Technology Functionality Requirements
Enabling the functionality of Hyper-Threading Technology for your computer system requires ALL of the following platforms.

.
.
.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your system board, proces­sor, disk drives, add-in boards, and other components. Perform the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD workstation only. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the system chassis. If a wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain contact with the system chassis throughout any procedures requiring ESD protection.
2.2 System Memory
DDR 1 DDR 2
16
The system board is equipped with two 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) sockets that support 2.5V DDR SDRAM DIMM. Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM) is a type of SDRAM that doubles the data rate through reading and writing at both the rising and falling edge of each clock. This effectively doubles the speed of operation therefore doubling the speed of data transfer.
Refer to chapter 1 (System Memory section) for detailed specifi­cation of the memor y supported by the system board.
BIOS Setting
Configure the system memory in the Advanced Chipset Features submenu of the BIOS.
Hardware Installation
2.2.1 Installing the DIM Module
A DIM module simply snaps into a DIMM socket on the system board. Pin 1 of the DIM module must correspond with Pin 1 of the socket.

1. Pull the “tabs” which are at the ends of the socket to the side.
2. Position the DIMM above the socket with the “notch” in the module aligned with the “key” on the socket.
3. Seat the module vertically into the socket. Make sure it is completely seated. The tabs will hold the DIMM in place.

2.3 CPU
2.3.1 Overview
The system board is equipped with a surface mount 478-pin CPU socket. This socket is exclusively designed for installing an Intel processor.
2.3.2 Installing the CPU
1. Locate Socket 478 on the system board.
2. Unlock the socket by pushing the lever sideways, away from the socket, then lifting it up to a 90o angle. Make sure the socket is lifted to at least this angle otherwise the CPU will not fit in properly.

3. Position the CPU above the socket then align the gold mark on the corner of the CPU (designated as pin 1) with pin 1 of the socket.
Important:
Handle the CPU by its edges and avoid touching the pins.

Pin 1
4. Insert the CPU into the socket until it is seated in place. The CPU will fit in only one orientation and can easily be inserted without exerting any force.
Important:
Do not force the CPU into the socket. Forcing the CPU into the socket may bend the pins and damage the CPU.

Hardware Installation
5. Once the CPU is in place, push down the lever to lock the socket. The lever should click on the side tab to indicate that the CPU is completely secured in the socket.
2.3.3 Installing the Fan and Heat Sink
The CPU must be kept cool by using a CPU fan with heatsink. Without sufficient air circulation across the CPU and heat sink, the CPU will overheat damaging both the CPU and system board.
Note:
Only use Intel® certified fan and heat sink.
An Intel® boxed processor package contains a retention
mechanism, heat sink, fan and installation guide. If the instal­lation procedure in the installation guide differs from the one in this section, please follow the installation guide in the package.
If you are installing a non-boxed processor, the heat sink, fan and retention mechanism assembly may look different from the one shown in this section but the procedure will more or less be the same.
