Introduction
Overview
PlatiniX 2E series of mainboards utilize Intel® 845E chipset consisting of two components:
®
the Intel
Hub4(ICH4), providing a fully compatible, high performance and cost-effective ATX platform.
The new integrated technologies, together with AGP 4X support, AC97 audio, integrated
LAN(optional), 6 USB ports, and ATA100/66/33, give customers an advanced, multimedia
solution at reasonable price. It provides 400/533MHz host bus speed to support Intel
Pentium 4 socket 478 processors and the largest DDR memory capacity is up to 2GB. It
also provides advanced features such as Wake up by USB devices, Wake-on-LAN,
Wake-on-Modem, ACPI and Keyboard Password Power-on functions. Suspend to RAM,
the optimal implementation of the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
specification, makes the PCs power consumption drop to the lowest possible level and
enable quick wakeup. BootEasy, QDI innovation, lets the PC boot freely and rapidly.

ATX12V Power Supply Connectors & Power Switch (POWER SW)
The PlatiniX 2E series mainboards prefer an ATX12V power supply. Be sure to connect the
ATX 12V power supply plugs to the connectors in their proper orientation. The difference
between ATX12V power supply and ATX power supply is that ATX12V power supply
provides two additional power connectors: AUX power connector and +12V power
connector.However,the PlatiniX 2E series mainboard provide an unique design especially
for those who still use legacy ATX power supply(without AUX and +12V connector) as
long as their ATX power supplies can provide enough current on +12V rail(at least 8
Amperes). System stability with an ATX power supply is not guaranteed and we are not
responsible for any damage caused.
The power switch (POWER SW) should be connected to a momentary switch. When
powering up your system, first turn on the mechanical switch of the power supply (if one
is provided), then push once the power switch. When powering off the system, you
neednt turn off the mechanical switch, just
Push once* the power switch.

Wake-Up On LAN (WOL)
Through the Wake-Up On LAN function, a wake event occurring from the network can
wake up the system. If this function is to be used, please be sure an ATX12V power
supply of which 5VSB line is capable of delivering current at least720mA, and a LAN
adapter which supports this function is used. Then connect this header to the relevant
connector on the LAN adapter, set Power on by Ring as Enabled in the POWER MANAGEMENT SETUP section of the CMOS SETUP. Save and exit, then boot the operating

Communication and Networking Riser Slot(CNR)
The mainboard provides Communication and Networking Riser(CNR) interface which can
support audio and/or modem functions . Furthermore, it provides a LAN interface for networking functions. What its superiority compared with AMR is being able to support plug-and-play
function. Mechanically the CNR shares a PCI slot, thus if a CNR card is not used,users can an
additional PCI slot which shares the same position on back panel with CNR.
CNR Slot
By using an audio codec, the AC97 digital link on CNR provides for cost-effective, high-
quality, integrated audio on the platform.
Note: The CNR only supports slave AC97 devices.
Sound Connector (PC-PCI)
This connector provides a bridge between the mainboard and PCI sound card to deliver
sound compatibility under DOS real-mode environment.
