Motherboard Features
Real-Time Clock
The motherboard has a time-of-day clock and 100-year calendar that will rollover to 2000 at the
turn of the century. A battery on the motherboard keeps the clock current when the computer is
turned off.
NOTE
✏
The recommended method of accessing the date in systems with Intel motherboards is indirectly
from the Real-Time Clock (RTC) via the BIOS. The BIOS on Intel motherboards and baseboards
contains a century checking and maintenance feature that checks the least two significant digits of
the year stored in the RTC during each BIOS request (INT 1Ah) to read the date and, if less than
80 (i.e., 1980 is the first year supported by the PC), updates the century byte to 20. This feature
enables operating systems and applications using the BIOS date/time services to reliably
manipulate the year as a four-digit value.
For information about Refer to
Proper date access in systems with Intel
motherboards
http://support.intel.com/support/year2000/paper.htm
USB Support
The motherboard has two USB ports. You can connect two USB peripheral devices directly to the
computer without an external hub. To attach more than two devices, connect an external hub to
either of the built-in ports. The motherboard supports the standard universal host controller
interface (UHCI) and takes advantage of standard software drivers written to be compatible with
UHCI.
For information about Refer to
The location of the USB ports Figure 12, page 46
USB legacy support in the BIOS
NOTE
✏
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port might not meet FCC
Class B requirements, even if no device or a low-speed USB device is attached to the cable. Use a
shielded cable that meets the requirements for a high-speed USB device.

BI440ZX Motherboard Product Guide
Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)
The AGP is a high-performance bus for graphics-intensive applications, such as 3D graphics.
AGP is independent of the PCI bus and is intended for exclusive use with graphical display
devices.

BIOS
The motherboard’s system BIOS is contained in a flash memory device on the motherboard. The
BIOS provides the power-on self test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, and the PCI and IDE autoconfiguration utilities.
For information about Refer to
Accessing, upgrading, or recovering the BIOS Chapter 3, beginning on page 25

Expansion Slots
The motherboard has four expansion slots for installing add-in boards, such as network cards, that
expand the capabilities of your computer. The expansion slots are as follows:
• One shared PCI/ISA slot
• Two PCI slots
• One AGP slot
12
Motherboard Features
Power Management
The motherboard supports two types of power management — Advanced Power Management
(APM) and Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI). If the board is used with an
ACPI-aware operating system, the BIOS provides ACPI support. Otherwise, it defaults to
APM support.
For information about Refer to
How the board supports APM and ACPI
BI440ZX Motherboard Technical Product Specification

http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop
Battery
A battery on the motherboard keeps the clock and the values in CMOS RAM current when your
computer is turned off.
For information about Refer to
The location of the battery Figure 1, page 8
How to replace the battery Page 22
Wake on Ring / Resume on Ring Technologies (Optional)
The board supports two technologies that enable telephony devices (such as modems) to access the
computer when it is in a power-managed state. The method used depends on the type of telephony
device (external or internal) and the power management mode being used (APM or ACPI). The
optional Wake on Ring connector is used to implement this feature.
For information about Refer to

Wake on LAN† Technology
Wake on LAN technology enables remote wakeup of the computer through a network.
Wake on LAN technology requires a PCI add-in network interface card (NIC) with remote wakeup
capabilities. The remote wakeup connector on the NIC must be connected to the onboard
Wake on LAN technology connector.

2 Installing and Replacing Motherboard
Components
This chapter tells you how to:
• Install and remove the motherboard
• Install and remove the processor
• Install and remove memory
• Replace the battery
Before You Begin
CAUTION
Before you install this motherboard in a chassis, see Appendix B for regulatory requirements and
precautions.
• Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order.
• Set up a log to record information about your computer, such as model, serial numbers,
installed options, and configuration information.
• Use an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad when working on the motherboard.
WARNINGS
The procedures in this chapter assume familiarity with the general terminology associated with
personal computers and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using
and modifying electronic equipment.
Disconnect the computer from its power source and from any telecommunications links,
networks, or modems before performing any of the procedures described in this chapter.
Failure to disconnect power, telecommunications links, networks, or modems before you open
the computer or perform any procedures can result in personal injury or equipment damage.
Some circuitry on the motherboard can continue to operate even though the front panel power
button is off.
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures described in this
chapter only at an ESD workstation. 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 computer
chassis.
