1.1 Description
Taking advantages of Intel energy-efficient dual-core processing, ADE-9040 ATX Mother
Board adopts Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo Desktop processors up to 1066 MHz FSB and Intel
Q965 Express chipset with Intel® ICH8R RAID function to fit the high performance computer
system applications for meeting today’s demanding pace and keep complete compatibility
with hardware and software designed. The onboard devices support one PCI Express x16
for an alternative graphics add-in card, one PCI Express x1, four PCI slots, integrated
graphics, and built dual Marvell 88E8053 Gigabit Ethernet controllers offering stable
high-speed networking.
ADE-9040 comes with the Intel® GMA 3000 graphics supporting DVMT 4.0 display memory
up to 256 MB for dual display function by VGA/DVI. The board also features two DIMMs up
to 4 GB SDRAM with dual channel DDR2 533/667/800, enhanced onboard one SATA to
®
Parallel ATA IDE interface supporting Ultra ATA 33/66/100 synchronous mode feature, four
Serial ATA high-speed data transferring at up to 3 GB/s, and 7.1 + 2 CH HDAC through
Realtek ALC883 audio codec. The onboard ITE IT8712F Super I/O chipset supports four
serial ports: one RS-232 serial port interfaces, two RS-232 and one RS-232/422/485 pin
headers, Hardware Monitor function, ten Hi-speed USB 2.0 ports, two 6-pin Mini-DIN
connectors for PS/2 mouse and keyboard, and one 24-pin standard connector designed to
support ATX power function. Besides, a feature of CPU overheat protection will provide
user more security and stability.

2. Hardware Configuration Setting
This chapter gives the definitions and shows the positions of jumpers, headers and
connectors. All of the configuration jumpers on ADE-9040 are in the proper position. The
default settings shipped from factory are marked with an asterisk ().
In general, jumpers on the ATX Main Board are used to select options for certain features.
Some of the jumpers are designed to be user-configurable, allowing for system
enhancement. The others are for testing purpose only and should not be altered. To select
any option, cover the jumper cap over (SHORT) or remove (NC) it from the jumper pins
according to the following instructions. Here, NC stands for “Not Connect”.

DVI Data Channel 1 Output: These pins provide the DVI differential
output for data channel 1 (Green).
DVI Data Channel 2 Output: These pins provide the DVI differential
output for data channel 2 (Red).
Hot Plug Detect (internal pull-down): This input determines whether the
DVI is connected to a DVI monitor. When terminated\, the monitor is
required to apply a voltage greater than 2.4 volts. Changes on the status of
this pin will be relayed to the graphics controller via the P-OUT/TLDET* or
GPIO(1)/TLDET* pin pulling low.
DVI I2C Data: This signal is used as the I2C DOC clock for a digital display
connector (i.e. TV-Out Encoder, TMDS transmitter ). This signal is
tri-stated during a hard reset.
DVI DOC Clock: This signal is used as the DOC clock for a digital display
connector (i.e. primary digital monitor). This signal is tri-stated during a
hard reset.

These SATA connectors support Serial ATA 300. Each
SATA connector can only support one serial ATA device.
Note: With most storage devices, there is a power cable
that you need attach to a power source (power
supply).

3. System Installation
This chapter provides you with instructions on how to setup your system. The additional
information shows you how to install CPU/ FAN and memory.
3.1 Intel® µFC-LGA775 Processor
3.1.1 Installing Intel® Core™ 2 Duo / Pentium® 4 / Celeron® D CPU
• The board comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for the Intel®
Pentium® 4 processor in the 775-land package.
• Remove the plastic cap to install the µFC-LGA 775 Pentium 4 CPU.
• Unlock the socket by pressing the metal lever sideways to lift it up, and open the load
plate. (1, 2, 3, 4)
• Position the CPU above the socket and the gold triangular mark on the CPU must
align with pin 1 of the CPU socket. Then Insert the CPU gently seated in place.
• Close the load plate and push it back to the original position. (5, 6, 7)

3.1.2 Installing Intel µFC-LGA 775 CPU Fan, and Heat Sink
• The Intel µFC-LGA 775 CPU heat sink and fan assembly comes in a push-pin design
and requires no tool to install.
• Place the fan with heat sink right above the CPU and make sure four pins matching
the holes of the board. (8, 9)
• Press all push-pins down and rotate them to lock. (Please check the rear side of the
board.)
• Place the CPU fan connector.

3.1.3 Removing CPU
• Disconnect the CPU fan connector.
• Remove the CPU fan and heat sink first.
• Unlock the Intel µFC-LGA 775 Pentium 4 processor.
• Carefully lift up the existing CPU to remove it from the socket.
• Follow the steps of installing a CPU to change to another one.
Warning： For a safety landing, avoid leaving prongs on hard surface.
Instructions：Smear thermal grease on the top of the CPU. Lower the CPU fan onto the
CPU/CPU socket and secure it using the attachments or screws provided
on the fan. Finally, attach the fan power cable to the CPUFAN adapter. For

to support for x8 and x16 DDRAM(DDR2) device width. In addition, it only supports
Non-ECC memory.
For system compatibility and stability, don’t use memory module without brand. You can
also use the single or double-side DIMM .The two DIMMs can be out of order. You can
install different size of DDRAM module on DIMM1, DIMM2 or all to boot up system.
Without out the contact and lock integrity of memory module with socket, it will impact on
the system reliability. Follow normal procedure to install your DDRAM module into memory
socket. Before locking, make sure that the module has been fully inserted into the DIMM
slot.
NOTE: For maintaining system stability, do not change any of DDR2 memory parameters in
BIOS setup to upgrade your system performance without acquiring technical
information.

4. BIOS Setup
4.1 Entering Setup
AMI BIOS has a built-in setup program that allows users to modify the basic system
configuration. This information is stored in CMOS RAM whose power is supplied by a
battery so that it can retain the setup information even when the power is turned off. Press
Delete when you Power on or Reboot the computer system. (i.e. After the logo appears at
the center of the screen, please press Delete to enter the BIOS setup program). In the
BIOS, make sure that everything is working fine before you try to optimize it for maximum
performance.
4.1.1 Main Menu
When you enter the AMI CMOS Setup Utility, the Main will appear on the screen. The Main
allows you to select several configuration options. Use the left/right arrow keys to highlight
a particular configuration screen from the top menu bar or use the down arrow key to
access and configure the information below.
4.1.1.1 System Time / System Date
Use this option to change the system time and date. The date must be entered in
MM/DD/YY format. The time is entered in HH:MM:SS format.

The CPU Configuration setup screen varies depending on the installed processor.
4.1.2.1.1 Max CPUID Value Limit
The Intel® Processor Identification Utility requires the 'Max CPUID Value Limit' in the
system BIOS to be disabled for proper processor identification. Once processor
identification has taken place, the option can be re-enabled if desired.
4.1.2.1.2 Execute Disable Bit
A feature designed to stop buffer overflow attacks against the operating system. Buffer
overflow attacks are one of the most common tactics used to attack personal computers.
The processor prevents the execution of code in data-only memory pages while enabled
and will not restrict code execution in any memory area if disabled. This makes the
processor more vulnerable to buffer overflow attacks
4.1.2.1.3 Intel ® SpeedStep (tm) tech.
Intel (R) SpeedStep(tm) tech. is Intel’s new power saving technology. Processor can switch
between multiple frequency and voltage points to enable power savings. If you select [Auto],
you need to set the “Power Schemes” as “Portable/Laptop” to enable this function. This
option will be hidden if the current CPU does not support Intel SpeedStep(tm) tech..
