desktop board.
INTEGRATOR’S NOTES
#
• Use only ATX12V-, SFX12V-, or TFX12V-compliant power supplies. ATX12V, SFX12V, and
TFX12V power supplies have an additional power lead that provides required supplemental
power for the processor. Always connect the 20-pin and 4-pin leads of ATX12V, SFX12V, and
TFX12V power supplies to the corresponding connectors on the desktop board, otherwise the
board will not boot.
• Do not use a standard ATX power supply. The board will not boot with a standard ATX power
supply.
• Refer to Table 3 on page 20 for a list of supported system bus frequency and memory speed
The board has two DIMM sockets and supports the following memory features:
• 2.5 V (only) 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
• Unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following restriction:
Double-sided DIMMS with x16 organization are not supported.
• 2 GB maximum total system memory
• Minimum total system memory: 64 MB
• Non-ECC DIMMs
• Serial Presence Detect
• DDR333 and DDR266 SDRAM DIMMs
Table 3 lists the supported system bus frequency and memory speed combinations.
Table 3. Supported System Bus Frequency and Memory Speed Combinations
To use this type of DIMM…The processor's system bus frequency must be…
DDR333 533 MHz
DDR266 533 or 400 MHz
✏ NOTES
• Remove the AGP video card before installing or upgrading memory to avoid interference with
the memory retention mechanism.
• To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board
should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data
structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately
configure memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory is installed, the
BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability
may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the determined frequency.

24
Product Description
AGP is a high-performance interface for graphics-intensive applications, such as 3D applications.
While based on the PCI Local Bus Specification, Rev. 2.2, AGP is independent of the PCI bus and
is intended for exclusive use with graphical display devices. AGP overcomes certain limitations of
the PCI bus related to handling large amounts of graphics data with the following features:
• Pipelined memory read and write operations that hide memory access latency
• Demultiplexing of address and data on the bus for nearly 100 percent efficiency
INTEGRATOR’S NOTES
#
• AGP 2x operation is not supported.
• Install memory in the DIMM sockets prior to installing the AGP video card to avoid
interference with the memory retention mechanism.
• The AGP connector is keyed for Universal 0.8 V AGP 3.0 cards or 1.5 V AGP 2.0 cards only.
Do not attempt to install a legacy 3.3 V AGP card. The AGP connector is not mechanically
compatible with legacy 3.3 V AGP cards.
For information about Refer to
The location of the AGP connector Figure 1, page 13
Obtaining the Accelerated Graphics Port Interface Specification Section 1.3, page 16
1.6.2 USB
The board supports up to six USB 2.0 ports, supports UHCI and EHCI, and uses UHCI- and EHCIcompatible drivers.
The ICH5 provides the USB controller for all ports. The port arrangement is as follows:
• Two ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors, adjacent to the PS/2
connectors
• Two ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors, adjacent to the audio
connectors
• Two ports are routed to a front panel USB connector
NOTES
✏
• Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not meet FCC
Class B requirements, even if no device is attached to the cable. Use shielded cable that meets
the requirements for full-speed devices.
• Native USB 2.0 support has been tested with drivers for Windows* 2000 (with Service Pack 3)
and Windows XP (with Service Pack 1) and is not currently supported by any other operating
system. Check Intel’s Desktop Board website for possible driver updates for other operating
systems.
For information about Refer to
The location of the USB connectors on the back panel Figure 8, page 44
The location of the front panel USB connector Figure 12, page 52
The EHCI, front panel, UHCI, and USB specifications Section 1.3, page 16
The board provides two Parallel ATA IDE connectors, which support a total of four devices (two
per connector). The ICH5’s Parallel ATA IDE controller has two independent bus-mastering
Parallel ATA IDE interfaces that can be independently enabled. The Parallel ATA IDE interfaces
support the following modes:
• Programmed I/O (PIO): processor controls data transfer.
• 8237-style DMA: DMA offloads the processor, supporting transfer rates of up to 16 MB/sec.
• Ultra DMA: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates
of up to 33 MB/sec.
• ATA-66: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates of
up to 66 MB/sec. ATA-66 protocol is similar to Ultra DMA and is device driver compatible.
• ATA-100: DMA protocol on IDE bus allows host and target throttling. The ICH5’s ATA-100
logic can achieve read transfer rates up to 100 MB/sec and write transfer rates up to 88 MB/sec.
✏ NOTE
ATA-66 and ATA-100 are faster timings and require a specialized cable to reduce reflections,
noise, and inductive coupling.
The Parallel ATA IDE interfaces also support ATAPI devices (such as CD-ROM drives) and ATA
devices using the transfer modes listed in Section 4.4.4.1 on page 86.
The BIOS supports Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and Extended Cylinder Head Sector (ECHS)
translation modes. The drive reports the transfer rate and translation mode to the BIOS.
The board supports Laser Servo (LS-120) diskette technology through the Parallel ATA IDE
interfaces. An LS-120 drive can be configured as a boot device by setting the BIOS Setup
program’s Boot menu to one of the following:
• ARMD-FDD (ATAPI removable media device – floppy disk drive)
• ARMD-HDD (ATAPI removable media device – hard disk drive)
For information about Refer to
The location of the Parallel ATA IDE connectors Figure 11, page 51
1.6.4 Real-Time Clock, CMOS SRAM, and Battery
A coin-cell battery (CR2032) powers the real-time clock and CMOS memory. When the computer
is not plugged into a wall socket, the battery has an estimated life of three years. When the
computer is plugged in, the standby current from the power supply extends the life of the battery.
The clock is accurate to ± 13 minutes/year at 25 ºC with 3.3 VSB applied.

1.11.1 ACPI
ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug and Play
functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with the Desktop Board D865PCD requires an
operating system that provides full ACPI support. ACPI features include:
• Plug and Play (including bus and device enumeration)
• Power management control of individual devices, add-in boards (some add-in boards may
require an ACPI-aware driver), video displays, and hard disk drives
• Methods for achieving less than 15-watt system operation in the power-on/standby
sleeping state
• A Soft-off feature that enables the operating system to power-off the computer
• Support for multiple wake-up events (see Table 9 on page 32)
• Support for a front panel power and sleep mode switch
Table 7 lists the system states based on how long the power switch is pressed, depending on how
ACPI is configured with an ACPI-aware operating system.

1.11.1.1 System States and Power States
Under ACPI, the operating system directs all system and device power state transitions. The
operating system puts devices in and out of low-power states based on user preferences and
knowledge of how devices are being used by applications. Devices that are not being used can be
turned off. The operating system uses information from applications and user settings to put the
system as a whole into a low-power state.
Table 8 lists the power states supported by the Desktop Board D865PCD and along with the
associated system power targets. See the ACPI specification for a complete description of the
various system and power states.
1. Total system power is dependent on the system configuration, including add-in boards and peripherals powered
by the system chassis’ power supply.

1.11.2.1 Power Connector
ATX12V-, SFX12V-, and TFX12V-compliant power supplies can turn off the system power
through system control. When an ACPI-enabled system receives the correct command, the power
supply removes all non-standby voltages.
When resuming from an AC power failure, the computer returns to the power state it was in before
power was interrupted (on or off). The computer’s response can be set using the Last Power State
feature in the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu.

1.11.2.2 LAN Wake Capabilities
CAUTION
For LAN wake capabilities, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of
providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when
implementing LAN wake capabilities can damage the power supply.
LAN wake capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network. The LAN
subsystem PCI bus network adapter monitors network traffic at the Media Independent Interface.
Upon detecting a Magic Packet* frame, the LAN subsystem asserts a wake-up signal that powers
up the computer. Depending on the LAN implementation, the Desktop Board D865PCD support
LAN wake capabilities with ACPI in the following ways:
• The PCI bus PME# signal for PCI 2.2 compliant LAN designs
• The onboard LAN subsystem
1.11.2.3 Instantly Available PC Technology
CAUTION
For Instantly Available PC technology, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must be
capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current
when implementing Instantly Available PC technology can damage the power supply.
Instantly Available PC technology enables the Desktop Board D865PCD to enter the ACPI S3
(Suspend-to-RAM) sleep-state. While in the S3 sleep-state, the computer will appear to be off (the
power supply is off, and the front panel LED is amber if dual colored, or off if single colored.)
When signaled by a wake-up device or event, the system quickly returns to its last known wake
state. Table 9 on page 32 lists the devices and events that can wake the computer from the
S3 state.
The Desktop Board D865PCD supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification.
For information on the version of this specification, see Section 1.3. Add-in boards that also
support this specification can participate in power management and can be used to wake the
computer.
The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and PCI 2.2
compliant add-in cards and drivers.

1.11.2.4 Resume on Ring
The operation of Resume on Ring can be summarized as follows:
• Resumes operation from ACPI S1 or S3 states
• Detects incoming call similarly for external and internal modems
• Requires modem interrupt be unmasked for correct operation
1.11.2.5 Wake from USB
USB bus activity wakes the computer from ACPI S1 or S3 states.
NOTE
✏
Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB.
1.11.2.6 Wake from PS/2 Devices
PS/2 device activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 or S3 state.
1.11.2.7 PME# Signal Wake-up Support
Product Description
When the PME# signal on the PCI bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI S1, S3, S4,
or S5 state (with Wake on PME enabled in BIOS).

2.7 PCI Interrupt Routing Map
This section describes interrupt sharing and how the interrupt signals are connected between the
PCI bus connectors and onboard PCI devices. The PCI specification specifies how interrupts can
be shared between devices attached to the PCI bus. In most cases, the small amount of latency
added by interrupt sharing does not affect the operation or throughput of the devices. In some
special cases where maximum performance is needed from a device, a PCI device should not share
an interrupt with other PCI devices. Use the following information to avoid sharing an interrupt
with a PCI add-in card.
PCI devices are categorized as follows to specify their interrupt grouping:
• INTA: By default, all add-in cards that require only one interrupt are in this category. For
almost all cards that require more than one interrupt, the first interrupt on the card is also
classified as INTA.
• INTB: Generally, the second interrupt on add-in cards that require two or more interrupts is
classified as INTB. (This is not an absolute requirement.)
• INTC and INTD: Generally, a third interrupt on add-in cards is classified as INTC and a
fourth interrupt is classified as INTD.
The ICH5 has eight Programmable Interrupt Request (PIRQ) input signals. All PCI interrupt
sources either onboard or from a PCI add-in card connect to one of these PIRQ signals. Some PCI
interrupt sources are electrically tied together on the Desktop Boards D865PCD and therefore
share the same interrupt. Table 15 shows an example of how the PIRQ signals are routed.
For example, using Table 15 as a reference, assume an add-in card using INTA is plugged into PCI
bus connector 3. In PCI bus connector 3, INTA is connected to PIRQB, which is already
connected to the ICH5 audio controller. The add-in card in PCI bus connector 3 now shares an
interrupt with the onboard interrupt source.
In PIC mode, the ICH5 can connect each PIRQ line internally to one of the IRQ signals (3, 4, 5, 6,
7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15). Typically, a device that does not share a PIRQ line will have a
unique interrupt. However, in certain interrupt-constrained situations, it is possible for two or
more of the PIRQ lines to be connected to the same IRQ signal. Refer to Table 14 for the
allocation of PIRQ lines to IRQ signals in APIC mode.

2.8 Connectors
CAUTION
Only the following connectors have overcurrent protection: back panel USB, front panel USB,
and PS/2.
The other internal connectors are not overcurrent protected and should connect only to devices
inside the computer’s chassis, such as fans and internal peripherals. Do not use these connectors
to power devices external to the computer’s chassis. A fault in the load presented by the external
devices could cause damage to the computer, the power cable, and the external devices themselves.

2.10.2 I/O Shield
The back panel I/O shield for the Desktop Board D865PCD must meet specific dimension and
material requirements. Systems based on this Desktop Board need the back panel I/O shield to
pass certification testing. Figure 17 shows the I/O shield. Dimensions are given in inches to a
tolerance of ±0.02 inches.
The figure also indicates the position of each cutout. Additional design considerations for I/O
shields relative to chassis requirements are described in the ATX specification. See Section 1.3 for
information about the ATX specification.
NOTE
✏
The I/O shield drawings in this document are for reference only. An I/O shield compliant with the
ATX chassis specification 2.03 is available from Intel.
Table 30 lists the DC loading characteristics of the board. This data is based on a DC analysis of
all active components within the board that impact its power delivery subsystems. The analysis
does not include PCI add-in cards. Minimum values assume a light load placed on the board that
is similar to an environment with no applications running and no USB current draw. Maximum
values assume a load placed on the board that is similar to a heavy gaming environment with a
500 mA current draw per USB port. These calculations are not based on specific processor values
or memory configurations but are based on the minimum and maximum current draw possible
from the board’s power delivery subsystems to the processor, memory, and USB ports.
Use the datasheets for add-in cards, such as PCI, to determine the overall system power
requirements. The selection of a power supply at the system level is dependent on the system’s
usage model and not necessarily tied to a particular processor speed.

2.11.4 Power Supply Considerations
CAUTION
The +5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby
current. Failure to do so can damage the power supply. The total amount of standby current
required depends on the wake devices supported and manufacturing options.
System integrators should refer to the power usage values listed in Table 30 when selecting a
power supply for use with the board.
Additional power required will depend on configurations chosen by the integrator.
The power supply must comply with the following recommendations found in the indicated
sections of the ATX form factor specification.
• The potential relation between 3.3 VDC and +5 VDC power rails (Section 4.2)
• The current capability of the +5 VSB line (Section 4.2.1.2)
• All timing parameters (Section 4.2.1.3)
• All voltage tolerances (Section 4.2.2)
For information about Refer to
The ATX form factor specification

2.12 Thermal Considerations
CAUTION
The use of an Intel Pentium 4 processor operating above 2.80 GHz with this Intel desktop board
requires the following:
• A chassis with appropriate airflow to ensure proper cooling of the components on the board
• A processor fan heatsink that meets the thermal performance targets for Pentium 4 processors
operating above 2.80 GHz
Failure to ensure appropriate airflow may result in reduced performance of both the processor
and/or voltage regulator or, in some instances, damage to the desktop board. For a list of chassis
that have been tested with Intel desktop boards please refer to the following website:
All responsibility for determining the adequacy of any thermal or system design remains solely
with the reader. Intel makes no warranties or representations that merely following the
instructions presented in this document will result in a system with adequate thermal performance.
Ensure that the ambient temperature does not exceed the Desktop Board’s maximum operating
temperature. Failure to do so could cause components to exceed their maximum case temperature
and malfunction. For information about the maximum operating temperature, see the
environmental specifications in Section 2.14.
CAUTION
Ensure that proper airflow is maintained in the processor voltage regulator circuit. Failure to do
so may result in damage to the voltage regulator circuit. The processor voltage regulator area

The Desktop Board D865PCD uses an Intel/AMI BIOS that is stored in the Firmware Hub (FWH)
and can be updated using a disk-based program. The FWH contains the BIOS Setup program,
POST, the PCI auto-configuration utility, and Plug and Play support.
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code. The
initial production BIOSs are identified as RC86510A.86A.
When the BIOS Setup configuration jumper is set to configure mode and the computer is poweredup, the BIOS compares the CPU version and the microcode version in the BIOS and reports if the
two match.
For information about Refer to
The Desktop Boards’ compliance level with Plug and Play Section 1.3, page 16
3.2 BIOS Flash Memory Organization
The Firmware Hub (FWH) includes a 4 Mbit (512 KB) symmetrical flash memory device.
The BIOS can automatically configure PCI devices. PCI devices may be onboard or add-in cards.
Autoconfiguration lets a user insert or remove PCI cards without having to configure the system.
When a user turns on the system after adding a PCI card, the BIOS automatically configures
interrupts, the I/O space, and other system resources. Any interrupts set to Available in Setup are
considered to be available for use by the add-in card.
For information about Refer to
The versions of PCI and Plug and Play supported by the BIOS Section 1.3, page 16
3.3.2 PCI IDE Support
If you select Auto in the BIOS Setup program, the BIOS automatically sets up the two
PCI IDE connectors with independent I/O channel support. The IDE interface supports hard drives
up to ATA-66/100 and recognizes any ATAPI compliant devices, including CD-ROM drives, tape
drives, and Ultra DMA drives (see Section 1.3 for the supported version of ATAPI). The BIOS
determines the capabilities of each drive and configures them to optimize capacity and
performance. To take advantage of the high capacities typically available today, hard drives are
automatically configured for Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and to PIO Mode 3 or 4, depending
on the capability of the drive. You can override the auto-configuration options by specifying
manual configuration in the BIOS Setup program.
To use ATA-66/100 features the following items are required:
• An ATA-66/100 peripheral device
• An ATA-66/100 compatible cable
• ATA-66/100 operating system device drivers
NOTE
✏
Do not connect an ATA device as a slave on the same IDE cable as an ATAPI master device. For
example, do not connect an ATA hard drive as a slave to an ATAPI CD-ROM drive.

Overview of BIOS Features
3.4 System Management BIOS (SMBIOS)
SMBIOS is a Desktop Management Interface (DMI) compliant method for managing computers in
a managed network.
The main component of SMBIOS is the Management Information Format (MIF) database, which
contains information about the computing system and its components. Using SMBIOS, a system
administrator can obtain the system types, capabilities, operational status, and installation dates for
system components. The MIF database defines the data and provides the method for accessing this
information. The BIOS enables applications such as third-party management software to use
SMBIOS. The BIOS stores and reports the following SMBIOS information:
• BIOS data, such as the BIOS revision level
• Fixed-system data, such as peripherals, serial numbers, and asset tags
• Resource data, such as memory size, cache size, and processor speed
• Dynamic data, such as event detection and error logging
Non-Plug and Play operating systems, such as Windows NT*, require an additional interface for
obtaining the SMBIOS information. The BIOS supports an SMBIOS table interface for such
operating systems. Using this support, an SMBIOS service-level application running on a
non-Plug and Play operating system can obtain the SMBIOS information.
For information about Refer to
The Desktop Boards’ compliance level with SMBIOS Section 1.3, page 16
3.5 Legacy USB Support
Legacy USB support enables USB devices such as keyboards, mice, and hubs to be used even
when the operating system’s USB drivers are not yet available. Legacy USB support is used to
access the BIOS Setup program, and to install an operating system that supports USB. By default,
Legacy USB support is set to Enabled.
Legacy USB support operates as follows:
1. When you apply power to the computer, legacy support is disabled.
2. POST begins.
3. Legacy USB support is enabled by the BIOS allowing you to use a USB keyboard to enter and
configure the BIOS Setup program and the maintenance menu.
4. POST completes.
5. The operating system loads. While the operating system is loading, USB keyboards and mice
are recognized and may be used to configure the operating system. (Keyboards and mice are
not recognized during this period if Legacy USB support was set to Disabled in the BIOS
Setup program.)
6. After the operating system loads the USB drivers, all legacy and non-legacy USB devices are
recognized by the operating system, and Legacy USB support from the BIOS is no longer
used.
To install an operating system that supports USB, verify that Legacy USB support in the BIOS
Setup program is set to Enabled and follow the operating system’s installation instructions.
NOTE
✏
Legacy USB support is for keyboards, mice, and hubs only. Other USB devices are not supported
in legacy mode.
3.6 BIOS Updates
The BIOS can be updated using either of the following utilities, which are available on the Intel
World Wide Web site:
®
• Intel
• Intel
Express BIOS Update utility, which enables automated updating while in the Windows
environment. Using this utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a hard disk, a 1.44 MB
diskette, or a CD-ROM, or from the file location on the Web.
®
Flash Memory Update Utility, which requires creation of a boot diskette and manual
rebooting of the system. Using this utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a 1.44 MB
diskette (from a legacy diskette drive or an LS-120 diskette drive) or a CD-ROM.
Both utilities support the following BIOS maintenance functions:
• Verifying that the updated BIOS matches the target system to prevent accidentally installing
an incompatible BIOS.
• Updating both the BIOS boot block and the main BIOS. This process is fault tolerant to
prevent boot block corruption.
• Updating the BIOS boot block separately.
• Changing the language section of the BIOS.
• Updating replaceable BIOS modules, such as the video BIOS module.
• Inserting a custom splash screen.
NOTE
✏
Review the instructions distributed with the upgrade utility before attempting a BIOS update.
For information about Refer to
The Intel World Wide Web site Section 1.2, page 15
3.6.1 Language Support
The BIOS Setup program and help messages are supported in five languages: US English,
German, Italian, French, and Spanish. The default language is US English, which is present unless
another language is selected in the BIOS Setup program.
72
Overview of BIOS Features
3.6.2 Custom Splash Screen
During POST, an Intel® splash screen is displayed by default. This splash screen can be
augmented with a custom splash screen. A utility is available from Intel to assist with creating a
custom splash screen. The custom splash screen can be programmed into the flash memory using
the BIOS upgrade utility. Information about this capability is available on the Intel Support World
Wide Web site.
NOTE
✏
If you add a custom splash screen, it will share space with the Intel branded logo.
For information about Refer to
The Intel World Wide Web site Section 1.2, page 15
3.7 Recovering BIOS Data
Some types of failure can destroy the BIOS. For example, the data can be lost if a power outage
occurs while the BIOS is being updated in flash memory. The BIOS can be recovered from a
diskette using the BIOS recovery mode. When recovering the BIOS, be aware of the following:
• Because of the small amount of code available in the non-erasable boot block area, there is no
video support. You can only monitor this procedure by listening to the speaker or looking at
the diskette drive LED.
• The recovery process may take several minutes; larger BIOS flash memory devices require
more time.
• Two beeps and the end of activity in the diskette drive indicate successful BIOS recovery.
• A series of continuous beeps indicates a failed BIOS recovery.
To create a BIOS recovery diskette, a bootable diskette must be created and the BIOS update files
copied to it. BIOS upgrades and the Intel Flash Memory Update Utility are available from Intel
Customer Support through the Intel World Wide Web site.
NOTE
✏
Even if the computer is configured to boot from an LS-120 diskette (in the Setup program’s
Removable Devices submenu), the BIOS recovery diskette must be a standard 1.44 MB diskette not
a 120 MB diskette.
For information about Refer to
The BIOS recovery mode jumper settings Section 2.9.2, page 57
The Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program Section 4.7, page 96
Contacting Intel customer support Section 1.2, page 15
In the BIOS Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a diskette drive, hard drives,
CD-ROM, or the network. The default setting is for the diskette drive to be the first boot device,
the hard drive second, and the ATAPI CD-ROM third. The fourth device is disabled.
3.8.1 CD-ROM Boot
Booting from CD-ROM is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable CD-ROM format
specification. Under the Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program, ATAPI CD-ROM is listed as a
boot device. Boot devices are defined in priority order. Accordingly, if there is not a bootable CD
in the CD-ROM drive, the system will attempt to boot from the next defined drive.
For information about Refer to
The El Torito specification Section 1.3, page 16
3.8.2 Network Boot
The network can be selected as a boot device. This selection allows booting from the onboard
LAN or a network add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed.
Pressing the <F12> key during POST automatically forces booting from the LAN. To use this key
during POST, the User Access Level in the BIOS Setup program’s Security menu must be
set to Full.
For information about Refer to
The BIOS Setup program’s Security menu Table 54, page 94
3.8.3 Booting Without Attached Devices
For use in embedded applications, the BIOS has been designed so that after passing the POST, the
operating system loader is invoked even if the following devices are not present:
• Video adapter
• Keyboard
• Mouse
3.8.4 Changing the Default Boot Device During POST
Pressing the <F10> key during POST causes a boot device menu to be displayed. This menu
displays the list of available boot devices (as set in the BIOS setup program’s Boot Device Priority
Submenu). Table 37 lists the boot device menu options.

3.9 Fast Booting Systems with Intel® Rapid BIOS Boot
These factors affect system boot speed:
• Selecting and configuring peripherals properly
®
• Using an optimized BIOS, such as the Intel
3.9.1 Peripheral Selection and Configuration
The following techniques help improve system boot speed:
• Choose a hard drive with parameters such as “power-up to data ready” less than eight seconds,
that minimize hard drive startup delays.
• Select a CD-ROM drive with a fast initialization rate. This rate can influence POST
execution time.
• Eliminate unnecessary add-in adapter features, such as logo displays, screen repaints, or mode
changes in POST. These features may add time to the boot process.
• Try different monitors. Some monitors initialize and communicate with the BIOS more
quickly, which enables the system to boot more quickly.
Rapid BIOS
3.9.2 Intel Rapid BIOS Boot
Use of the following BIOS Setup program settings reduces the POST execution time.
In the Boot Menu:
• Set the hard disk drive as the first boot device. As a result, the POST does not first seek a
diskette drive, which saves about one second from the POST execution time.
• Disable Quiet Boot, which eliminates display of the logo splash screen. This could save
several seconds of painting complex graphic images and changing video modes.
• Enable Intel Rapid BIOS Boot. This feature bypasses memory count and the search for a
diskette drive.
In the Peripheral Configuration submenu, disable the LAN device if it will not be used. This can
reduce up to four seconds of option ROM boot time.
NOTE
✏
It is possible to optimize the boot process to the point where the system boots so quickly that the
Intel logo screen (or a custom logo splash screen) will not be seen. Monitors and hard disk drives
with minimum initialization times can also contribute to a boot time that might be so fast that
necessary logo screens and POST messages cannot be seen.
This boot time may be so fast that some drives might be not be initialized at all. If this condition
should occur, it is possible to introduce a programmable delay ranging from three to 30 seconds
(using the Hard Disk Pre-Delay feature of the Advanced Menu in the Drive Configuration
Submenu of the BIOS Setup program).
For information about Refer to
Drive Configuration Submenu in the BIOS Setup program Section 4.4.4, page 85
The BIOS includes security features that restrict access to the BIOS Setup program and who can
boot the computer. A supervisor password and a user password can be set for the BIOS Setup
program and for booting the computer, with the following restrictions:
• The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all the Setup options in
the BIOS Setup program. This is the supervisor mode.
• The user password gives restricted access to view and change Setup options in the BIOS Setup
program. This is the user mode.
• If only the supervisor password is set, pressing the <Enter> key at the password prompt of the
BIOS Setup program allows the user restricted access to Setup.
• If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, users can enter either the supervisor
password or the user password to access Setup. Users have access to Setup respective to
which password is entered.
• Setting the user password restricts who can boot the computer. The password prompt will be
displayed before the computer is booted. If only the supervisor password is set, the computer
boots without asking for a password. If both passwords are set, the user can enter either
password to boot the computer.
Table 38 shows the effects of setting the supervisor password and user password. This table is for
reference only and is not displayed on the screen.
