The CPU Temperature Protection function has the capability of monitoring the CPU’s temperature during system boot-up. Once the system has detected that the CPU’s temperature exceeded the temperature limit defined in the BIOS, 5 warning beeps will sound then the system will automatically power-off.

Dual Function Power Button

Depending on the setting in the “Soft-Off By PWR-BTTN” field of the Power Management Setup, this switch will allow the system to enter the Soft-Off or Suspend mode.

Wake-On-Ring

This feature allows the system that is in the Suspend mode or Soft Power Off mode to wake-up/power-on to respond to calls coming from an external modem or respond to calls from a modem PCI card that uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal to remotely wake up the PC.

Important:

If you are using a modem add-in card, the 5VSB power source of your power supply must support a minimum of ≥720mA.

Introduction

Wake-On-LAN

This feature allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC. It is supported via the onboard LAN por t, via a PCI LAN card that uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal or via a LAN card that uses the Wake-On-LAN connector. However, if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can power-on the system only through an IRQ or DMA interrupt.

Important:

The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support

≥

720mA.

Wake-On-PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse

This function allows you to use the PS/2 keyboard or PS/2 mouse to power-on the system.

Important:

The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support

≥

720mA.

Wake-On-USB Keyboard

This function allows you to use a USB keyboard to wake up a system from the S3 (STR - Suspend To RAM) state .

Important:

• If you are using the Wake-On-USB Keyboard function for 2 USB ports, the 5VSB power source of your power supply must support ≥1.5A.

• If you are using the Wake-On-USB Keyboard function for 3 or more USB ports, the 5VSB power source of your power supply must support ≥2A.

Hardware Installation

Warning:

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your system board, processor, disk drives, add-in boards, and other components. Perform the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD workstation only. 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 system chassis. If a wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain contact with the system chassis throughout any procedures requiring ESD protection.

2.2 System Memory

DDR 1 DDR 2

1 2

Channel 0

Channel 1

The system board supports DDR SDRAM DIMM. Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM) is a type of SDRAM that doubles the data rate through reading and writing at both the rising and falling edge of each clock. This effectively doubles the speed of operation therefore doubling the speed of data transfer.

The four DDR DIMM sockets on the system board are divided into 2 channels:

Channel 0 - DDR 1 and DDR 2 Channel 1 - DDR 1 and DDR 2

Hardware Installation

The system board suppor ts the following memory interface.

Single Channel (SC)

Data will be accessed in chunks of 64 bits (8B) from the memor y channels.

Virtual Single Channel (VSC)

If both channels are populated with different memory configur ations, the MCH defaults to Vir tual Single Channel.

Dual Channel (DC)

Dual channel provides better system performance because it doubles the data transfer rate.

Dynamic Mode Addressing

This mode minimizes the overhead of opening/closing pages in memor y banks allowing for row switching to be done less often.

Single Channel

Virtual Single Channel

Dual Channel

Dynamic Mode Addressing

• DIMMs are on the same channel.

• DIMMs in a channel can be identical or

completely different.

• Not all slots need to be populated.

• DIMMs of different memory configura-

tions are on different channels.

• Odd number of slots can be populated.

• DIMMs of the same memor y configuration are on different channels.

• In single channel, requires even number or rows (side of the DIMM) populated. This mode can be enabled with 1 SS, 2 SS or 2 DS.

• In VSC mode, both channels must have identical row structure.
