voltage to support higher performance DDR3 SDRAM DIMMs.
• 1.35 V Low Voltage DDR3 DIMMs (JEDEC specification)
• Two independent memory channels with interleaved mode support
• Unbuffered, sin gl e-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following r estriction:
DIMMs with x16 organization are not supported.
• 32 GB maximum total system memory (with 4 Gb memory technology). Refer to
Section 2.1.1 on page 47 for information on the total amount of addressable
memory.
• Minimum recommended total system memory: 1 GB
• Non-ECC DIMMs
• Serial Presence Detect
• DDR3 1600 MHz, DDR3 1333 MHz, and DDR3 1066 MHz SDRAM DIMMs
Note: DDR3 1600 MHz DIM Ms are only supported by 3
processor family processors
• XMP version 1.3 performance profile support for memory speeds of 1600 MHz or
lower
rd
generation Intel Core
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board
should be populated with DIMMs that suppor t 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 correctl y configure the memory settings, but
performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the
determined fr eq u en cy.
Table 3 lists the supported DIMM configurations.

1.4.1 Memory Configurations
The 3rd generation Intel Core processor family and 2nd generation Intel Core processor
family processors support the following types of memory organization:
• Dual channel (Interleaved) mode. This mode offers the highest throughput for
real world applications. Dual channel mode is enabled when the installed memory
capacities of both DIMM channels are equa l. Technology and device width c an vary
from one channel to the other but the installed memory capacity for each channel
must be equal. If different speed DIMMs are used between channels, the slowest
memory timing will be used.
• Single channel (Asymmetric) mode. This mo de is eq uivalent to single channel
bandwidth operation for rea l world applications. This mode is u sed when only a
single DIMM is installed or the memory capacities are unequal. Technology and
device width can vary from one channel to the other. If different speed DIMMs are
used between channels, the slowest memory timing will be used.
• Flex mode. This mode provides the most flexible performance characteristics.
The bottommost DRAM memory (the memory that is lowes t within the system
memory map) is mapped to dual channel operation; the top most DRAM memory
(the memory that is nearest to the 8 GB address space limit), if any, is mapped to
single channel operation. Flex mode results in multiple zones of dual and single
channel operation across the whole of DRAM memory. To use flex mode, it is
necessary to populate both channels.

1.12.1 ACPI
ACPI gives the operating system direct contro l ove r the power management and Plug
and Play functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with this board require s an
operating system that provides full ACPI support. ACPI features include:
• Plug and Play (including bus and device enumeration)
• Power management control of individ ual 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 12 on page 42)
• Support for a front panel power and sleep mode switch

1.12.1.1 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
infor mation from applications and user settings to put the system as a whole into a
low-power state.
Table 11 lists the power states supported by the board along with the associated
system power targets. See the ACPI specification for a complete description of the
various system and power states.

1.12.2.1 Power Connector
ATX12V-compliant power supplies can turn off the syste m powe r 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.
For information about Refer to
The location of the main power connector Figure 11, page 51
1.12.2.2 Fan Headers
The function/operation of the fan header s is as follows:
• The fans are on when the board is in the S0 state
• The fans are off when the board is off or in the S3, S4, or S5 state
• Each fan header is wired to a fan tachometer input of t he hardware monitoring and
fan control ASIC
• All fan headers support closed-loop fan control that can adjust the fan speed or
switch the fan on or of f as needed
• All fan headers have a +12 V DC connection
• The fan headers are controlled by Pulse Width Modulation
For information about Refer to
The location of the fan headers Figure 11, page 51
The location of the fan headers and sensors for thermal monitoring Figure 6, page 34
1.12.2.3 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 capabi li ties 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* fr ame, the LAN subsystem
asserts a wake-up signal that powers up the computer. Depending on the LAN
implementation, the board suppor ts LAN wake capabilities with ACPI in the following
ways:
• The PCI Express WAKE# signal
• By Ping
• Magic Packet
• The onboard LAN subsystem
43
Intel Desktop Board DQ77MK Technical Product Specification
1.12.2.4 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 board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-toRAM) 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 12 on page 42 lists the devices and events that can
wake the computer from the S3 state.
The board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification. Add-in
boards that also support this specification ca n pa rticipate in power management and
can be used to wake the computer.
The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and
PCI Express add-in cards and drivers.
1.12.2.5 Wake from USB
USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3 state.
NOTE
Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB.
1.12.2.6 PME# Signal Wake-up Support
When the PME# signal o n t he Conventional PCI bus is a sserted, the computer wakes
from an ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state (with Wake on PME enabled in the BIOS).
1.12.2.7 WAKE# Signal Wake-up Support
When the WAKE# signal on t he PCI Express bus is asserted, the computer wakes from
an ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state.
1.12.2.8 Wake from Serial Port
Serial port activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3 state.
1.12.2.9 Wake from S5
When the RTC Date and Time is set in the BIOS, the computer will automatically wake
from an ACPI S5 state.

2.1 Memory Resources
2.1.1 Addressable Memory
The board utilizes 32 GB of addressable system memory. Typically the address space
that is allocated for Conventional PCI bus add-in cards, PCI Express configuration
space, BIOS (SPI Flash device), and chipset overhead resides above the top of DRAM
(total system memory). On a system that has 32 GB of system memory installed, it is
not possible to use all of the installed memory due to system address space being
allocated f or other system critical functions. These functions include the follo wing:
• BIOS/SPI Flash device (96 Mb)
• Local APIC (19 MB)
• Direct Media Interface (40 MB)
• PCI Express configuration space (256 MB)
• PCH base address registers PCI Express ports (up to 256 MB)
• Memory-mapped I/O that is dynamically allocated for Conventional PCI and PCI
Express add-in cards (256 MB)
The board provides the capability to reclaim the physical memory overlapped by the
memory mapped I/O logical address space. The board remaps physical memory from
the top of usable DRAM boundary to the 4 GB boundary to an equiva lent sized logical
address range located just above the 4 GB boundary. Figure 9 shows a schematic of
the system memory map. All installed system memory can be used when there is no
overlap of system addresses.

2.2 Connectors and Headers
CAUTION
Only the following connectors and headers have overcurrent protection: back panel
and front panel USB, as well as IEEE 1394a.
The other internal connectors and headers are not overcurrent protected and should
connect only to dev i ces inside the computer’s chassis, such as fans and internal
peripherals. Do not use these connectors or headers to power devices external to the
computer’s chassis. A fault in the load prese nted by the external devices could cause
damage to the computer, the power cable, and the external devices themselves.
Furthermore, improper connection of USB or 1394a heade r si n g le wire connectors may
eventually overload the overcurrent protection and cause damage to the board.
This section describes the board’s connectors. The connectors can be divided into
these groups:
• Back panel I/O connectors
• Component-side connectors and headers (see page 51)

supply to switch on or off. (The time requirement is due to internal debounce circuit ry
on the board.) At least two seconds must pass before the power supply will recognize
another on/off signal.

2.6.1 Power Supply Considerations
CAUTION
The +5 V standby line from 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 require d depends on the wake devices supported and
manufacturing options.
Additional power required will depend o n configurations chosen by the integrator.
The power supply must comply with the indicated parameters of the ATX form factor
specification.
• The potential relation between 3.3 V DC and +5 V DC pow er rails
• The current capability of the +5 VSB line
• All timing parameters
• All voltage tolerances
For example, for a high power system consisting of a supported 95 W processor (see
Section 1.3 on page 18 for a list of supported processors), 4 GB DDR3 RAM, one high
end video card, one hard disk drive, one optical drive, and all board peripherals
enabled, the minimum recommended power supply is 460 W. Table 36 lists possible
recommended power supply current rail values.

For example, for a l ow p owe r system consisting of a supported 45 W processor (see
Section 1.3 on page 18 for a list of supported processor s), 2 GB DDR3 RAM, integrated
graphics, one SSD, one optical drive, and no extra onboard peripherals enabled, the
minimum recommended power supply is a 320 W. Table 37 lists possible
recommended power supply current rail values. Note: If the correct power supply and
system configuration is used, a smaller power supply will work.

2.6.4 Add-in Board Considerations
The board is designed to provide 2 A (average) of current for each add-in board from
the +5 V rail. The total +5 V current draw for add-in boards for a fully loaded board
(all three expansion slots filled) must not exceed the system’s power supply +5 V
maximum current or 14 A in total.
2.7 Thermal Considerations
CAUTION
A chassis with a maximum internal ambient temperature of 38 oC at the processor fan
inlet is a requirement. Use a processor heat sink that provides omni-directional airflow
to maintain required airflow across the processor voltage regulator area.
CAUTION
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 board. For a
list of chassis that have been tested with Intel desktop boards please refer to the
following website:
http://www3.intel.com/cd/channel/reseller/asmo-na/eng/tech_reference/53211.htm
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

Table 39 provides maximum case temperatures for the components that are sensitive
to thermal changes. The operating temperature, current load, or operating frequency
could affect case temperatures. Maximum case temperatures are important when
considering proper airflow to cool the board.
Table 39. Thermal Considerations for Components
Component Maximum Case Temperature
Processor For processor case temperature, see processor datasheets and
processor specification updates
Intel Q77 Express Chipset 104 oC
To ensure functionality and reliability, the component is specified for proper operation
when Case Temperature is maintained at or below the maximum temperature listed in
Table 39. This is a requirement for sustained power dissipation equal to Thermal
Design Power (TDP is specified as the maximum sus ta inable power to be dissipated by
the components). When the component is dissipating less than TDP, the case
temperature should be below the Maximum Case Temperature. The surface
temperature at the geometric center of the compone nt corresponds to Case
Temperature.
It is important to note that the temperature measurement in the system BIOS is a
value reported by embedded thermal sensors in the components and does not directly
correspond to the Maximum Case Temperature. The upper operating limit when
monitoring this thermal sensor is Tcontrol.

3 Overview of BIOS Features
3.1 Introduction
The board uses an Intel BIOS that is stored in the Serial Peripheral Interface Flash
Memory (SPI Flash) and can be updated using a disk-based program. The SPI Flash
contains the BIOS Setup program, POST, the PCI auto-configuration utility, LAN
EEPROM information, and Plug and Play suppo rt.
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision
code. The initial production BIOSs are identified as MKQ7710H.86A.
When the BIOS Setup configuration jumper is set to configure mode and the computer
is powered-up, the BIOS compares the CPU version and the microcode version in the
BIOS and reports if the two match.
The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the
computer. The BIOS Setup program is accessed by pressing the <F2> key after the
Power-On Self-Test (POST) memory test begins and before the operating system boot
begins. The menu bar is shown below.

3.2 BIOS Flash Memory Organization
The Serial Peripheral Interface Flash Memory (SPI Flash) includes a 96 Mbit
(12288 KB) flash memory device.
3.3 Resource Configuration
3.3.1 PCI Express Autoconfiguration
The BIOS can automatically configure PCI Express devices. PCI Express devices may
be onboard or add-in cards. Autoconfiguration lets a user insert or remove PCI
Express cards without having to configure the system. When a user turns on the
system after adding a PCI Express 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.
72
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 Inf ormation 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 require an additional inter face for obtaining the
SMBIOS information. The BIOS supports an SMBIOS table inter face 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. Additional
board information c an be found in the BIOS under the Additional Info rmation header
under the Main BIOS page.
3.5 Legacy USB Support
Legacy USB support enables USB devices 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 s ystem that supports USB. By
default, Legacy USB support is set to Enabled.
Legacy USB supp o rt op erates 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 progr a m and the mainten ance menu.
4. POST com p letes.
5. The operating system loads. While the operating system is loading, USB
keyboards and mice are recognized and may be used to co nfigure 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.
7. Additional USB legacy feature options can be access by using Intel
Toolkit.
®
Integrator
73
Intel Desktop Board DQ77MK Technical Product Specification
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 o p erating system’s
instal la tion ins t r u ctions.
3.6 BIOS Updates
The BIOS can be updated us ing either of the follo wing utilities, which ar e available on
the Intel World Wide Web site:
• Intel
• Intel
Both utilities verify that the updated BIOS ma tches the target system to prevent
accidentally installing an incompatible BIO S.
®
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 USB drive (a flash drive or a USB hard drive), or a CD-ROM, or from
the file lo cation on the Web.
®
Flash Memory Update Utility, which requires booting from DOS. Using this
utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a hard disk, a USB drive (a flash
drive or a USB hard drive), or a CD-ROM.
NOTE
Review the instructions distributed with the upgrade utility before attempting a BIOS
update.

3.7 BIOS Recovery
It is unlikely that anything will interrupt a BIOS update; however, if an interruption
occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. Table 44 lists the drives and media types that
can and cannot be used for BIOS recovery. The BIOS recovery media does not need
to be made bootable.

3.8 Boot Options
In the BIOS Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a hard drive, optical
drive, removable drive, or the network. The default setting is for the optical drive to
be the first boot device, the hard drive second, removable drive third, and the network
fourth.
3.8.1 Optical Drive Boot
Booting from the optical drive is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable
CD-ROM format specification. Under the Boot menu in the BIO S Setup program, the
optical drive is listed as a boot device. Boot devices a re defined in priority order.
Accordingly, if there is not a bootable CD in the optical drive, the system will attempt
to boot from the next defined drive.
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 fo rces 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.
3.8.3 Booting Without Attached Devices
For use in embedded applications, the BIOS ha s 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 dev ice menu to be displayed. This
menu displays the list of available boot devices. Table 45 lists the boot device menu
options.

Overview of BIOS Features
3.9 Adjusting Boot Speed
These factors affect system boot speed:
• Selecting and configuring peripherals properly
• Optimized BIOS boot parameters
• Enabling the Fast Boot feature
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” in less than
eight seconds that minimizes hard drive startup delays.
• Select a CD-ROM drive with a fast initial ization 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. Som e monitors initialize and communicate with the BIOS
more quickly, which enables the system to boot more quickly.
3.9.2 BIOS Boot Optimizations
Use of the following BIOS Setup program settings reduces the POST execution time.
• In the Boot menu, enable the settings for Fast Boot. This option will all ow BIOS to
skip through various stages of POST and boot quickly to the last detected boot
device.
• 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.
• 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 zero to 30 seconds by 5 second increments (using the Hard Disk Pre-Delay
feature of the Advanced Menu in the Drive Config u ration Submenu of the BIOS Setup
program).

3.10 Hard Disk Drive Password Security Feature
The Hard Disk Drive Password Security feature blocks read and write accesses to the
hard disk drive until the correct password is given. Hard Disk Drive Passwords are set
in BIOS SETUP and are prompted for during BIOS POST. For convenient support of S3
resume, the system BIOS will automatically unlock drives on resume from S3.
The User hard disk drive password, when installed, will be required upon each powercycle until the Master Key or User hard disk drive password is submitted.
The Master Key hard disk drive password, when installed, will not lock the drive. The
Master Key hard disk drive password exists as an unlock override in the event that the
User hard disk drive password is forgotten. Only the installation of the User hard disk
drive password will cause a hard disk to be locke d upon a system power-cycle.
Table 51 shows the effects of setting the Hard Disk Drive Passwords.
Table 46. Master Key and User Hard Drive Password Functions
Neither None
User only User only
During every POST, if a User hard disk drive password is set, POST execution will
pause with the following prompt to force the user to enter the Master Key or User hard
disk drive password:
Enter Hard Disk Drive Password:
Upon successful entry of the Master Key or User hard disk drive password, the system
will continue with normal POST.
If the hard disk drive password is not correc tly entered, the system will go back to the
above prompt. The user will have three attempts to correctly enter the hard disk drive
password. After the third unsuccessful hard disk drive password attempt, the system
will halt with the message:
Hard Disk Drive Password Entry Error
A manual power cycle will be required to resume system operation.
NOTE
As implemented on DQ77MK, Hard Disk Drive Password Security is only supported on
SATA port 0. The passwords are stored on the hard disk drive so if the drive is
relocated to another SATA port or computer that does not support Hard Disk Drive
Password Security feature, the drive will not be accessible.

3.11 BIOS Security Features
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 re stricted 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 compute r is boo ted. 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.
• For enhanced security, use different passwords for the supervisor and user
passwords.
• Valid password characters are A-Z, a-z, and 0-9. Passwords may be up to
16 characters in length.

4.5 Port 80h Power On Self Test (POST) Codes
During the POST, the BIOS generates diagnostic progress codes (POST codes) to I/O
port 80h. If the POST fails, execution stops a nd the last PO ST code generated is left
at port 80h. This code is useful for determining the point where an error occurred.
Displaying the POST codes on a medium such as a seven-segment display, requires a
POST card that can interface with the Low Pin Count (LPC) Debug header or a POST
card that can be insta lled in one of the Conventional PCI connectors. Refer to the
location of the LPC Debug header in Figure 1.
The following tables provide information about the POST codes generated by the BIOS:
• Table 50 lists the Port 80h POST code ranges
• Table 51 lists the Port 80h POST codes themselves
• Table 52 lists the Port 80h POST sequence
NOTE
In the tables listed above, all POST codes and range values are listed in hexadecimal.
