1. Introduction
1.1 Description
The leading WADE-8156 Mini-ITX adopts Intel® energy-efficient dual-core processing to fit a high performance Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo Desktop based in the LGA775 package processors and compatible for high-end computing applications with PCI-E bus architecture to adapt to today’s demands and keep complete compatibility with hardware and software designed. The onboard devices support one PCI Express x16 slot for flexible expansibility of graphics interfaces, integrated graphics, and onboard dual Marvell Gigabit Ethernet controllers. It’s beneficial to build up a high performance and fast transmission availability system for VARs, or system integrators.
The WADE-8156 supports Intel® LGA775 CoreTM 2 Duo Desktop processors in E6000, 600, 500, 400, and 300 sequences via Intel® Q965 and ICH8 chipset integrated GMA 3000 graphics with DVMT 4.0 display memory up to 256 MB for optional dual display function by VGA/LVDS and VGA/DVI through optional ADD2 card. The board supports two DIMMs up to 4 GB SDRAM with dual channel DDR2 533/667/800, enhanced onboard four SATA high-speed data transferring at up to 300 MB/s, integrated Realtek ALC883 7.1 + 2 CH high definition audio codec. The onboard Super I/O Winbond W83627DHG chipset supports two RS-232 serial port interfaces, Hardware Monitor function, eight Hi-speed USB 2.0 ports, and two 6-pin Mini-DIN connectors for PS/2 mouse and keyboard. Besides, one 24-pin standard connector designed to support ATX power function, and a feature of CPU overheat protection will provide user more security and stability.
Combing with these outstanding features in the Mini-ITX form factor, WADE-8156 is definitely the most excellent choice for embedded applications like Network, Point of Sales (POS), automated KIOSKs, security products, medical instruments, and gaming machines.

2. Hardware Configuration Setting
This chapter gives the definitions and shows the positions of jumpers, headers and connectors. All of the configuration jumpers on WADE-8156 board are in the proper position. The default settings shipped from factory are marked with an asterisk ().
In general, jumpers on the Mini ITX 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”.

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 o 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
t
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.

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 Vanderpool Technology
Vanderpool Technology allows a platform to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions. With VT, one computer system can function as multiple “virtual” systems. Note: After any change to this option, system must be powered off to take effect.
4.1.2.1.3 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

4.1.2.3.1 Serial Port1/2 Address
This option specifies the base I/O port address and Interrupt Request address of serial port 1/2. The Optimal setting is 3F8/IRQ4. The Fail-Safe default setting is Disabled.
Item Description
Disabled
Set this value to prevent the serial port from accessing any system resources. When this option is set to Disabled, the serial port physically becomes unavailable.
3F8/IRQ4
Set this value to allow the serial port to use 3F8 as its I/O port address and IRQ 4 for the interrupt address. This is the default setting. The majority of serial port 1 or COM1 ports on computer systems use IRQ4 and I/O Port 3F8 as the standard setting. The most common serial device connected to this port is a mouse. If the system will not use a serial device, it is best to set this port to Disabled.
2F8/IRQ3
Set this value to allow the serial port to use 2F8 as its I/O port address and IRQ 3 for the interrupt address. If the system will not use a serial device, it is best to set this port to Disabled.
3E8/IRQ4
Set this value to allow the serial port to use 3E8 as its I/O port address and IRQ 4 for the interrupt address. If the system will not use a serial device, it is best to set this port to Disabled.

The Watchdog Timer (WDT) is a special hardware device that monitors the computer system during normal operation. The WDT has a clock circuit that times down from a set number to zero. If a monitored item occurs be ore that timer reaches zero, the WDT resets and counts down again. If for some reason the monitored item doesn’t occur before the timer reaches zero, the WDT performs an action, such as a diagnostic operation (rebooting the computer) or generate an NMI.
