Introduction
Product Description
The MI912 Mini IT X board incorporates t he Mobile Intel® GME965 Express
Chipset for Embedded Computing, consist ing of the Intel® GME965 Graphic
Memory Controller Hub (G MCH) and Intel® I/O Contr oller Hub (ICH8-M), an
optimized integrat ed graphics solut ion with a 533MHz and 800MHz front-side
bus. Dimensions of the board are 170mm x 170mm.
The integrated powerful 3D graphics engine, based on Intel® Graphics Media
Accelerator X3000 (Intel® GMA X3000) architecture, operates at core speeds of
up to 400 MHz. It features a low-power design, is validated with the Intel® Core 2
Duo and Intel® Celeron processors on 65nm process. With dual channel DDR2
667MHz two DIMM sockets, the board su pports up to 4GB of DDR2 system
memory.
Intel® Graphics supports a unique intelligent memory management scheme called
Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT). DVMT handles diverse
applications by providing the maximum (384MB) availability of system memory
for general computer usage, while supplying additional graphics memory when a
3D-intensive application requests it. The Intel® GMA X3000 graphics
architecture also takes advantage of the high-performance Intel processor. Intel®
GMA X3000 graphics supports Dual Independent Display technology.
The main features of the board are:
Supports Inte l® CoreTM 2 Duo (Merom 800MHz), Intel® Celeron
Supports up to 2.4GHz, 533MHz/800MHz FSB
Two DDR2 SDRAM DIMM, Max. 4GB memory
Onboard 10/100/100 and optio nal Intel 82574L Gigabit LAN
Intel® GME965 Express VGA for CRT / LVDS
2x SATA, 6x USB 2.0, 2x C OM, Watchdo g tim er, 1394
1x Mini PCI, 1x P CI, 1xPCI-E(x1) slots, optional DVI
Optional daughter cards:
ID390: Chrontel 7308, supports 24 bit single or dual LVDS channel
ID390C: Chro ntel 7021, supports CRT
ID391: Chrontel 7307C, single DVI (connector on cable)

INSTALLATIONS
NOTE:
Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in
total contact to avoid CPU overheating problem that would
cause your system to hang or be unstable.
Installing the CPU
The MBI910 board supports a Socket 478MN (Merom) processor socket
for Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo, Intel® Ce leron mobile processors.
The processor so cket comes with a screw to secure t he processor. As
shown in the picture below, loosen the screw first before insert ing the
processor. Place the processor into the socket by making sure the notch
on the corner of the CPU corresponds with the notch on the inside of the
socket . Once the processor has slide into the sock et, fasten the screw.

Installing and Removing Memory Modules
To install the DDR2 modules, locate the memory slot on the boar d and
pe rform the fo llow ing s te ps:
1. Hold the DDR2 module so that the key of the DDR2 module aligned
with that on the memory slot .
2. Gently push the DDR2 module in an uprigh t position until t he c lips of
the slot close to hold the DDR2 module in place when the DDR2
module touches the bottom of the slot.
3. To remove the DDR2 module, press the clips w ith both hands.
