Introduction
Product Description
The MB860 Mini-ITX motherboard comes with a Transmeta Efficeon
TM8600 processor, a power-efficient x86 solution. The I/O interfaces
built into the Efficeon processor’s integrated Northbridge are matched
with its high performance core featuring support for DDR-333 DRAM, a
1.6 GB/s HyperTransport™ interconnect, and an AGP 4X graphics
interface. With the new Code Morphing Software for the Efficeon
processor, MB860 provides high performance while consuming less
power.
The MB860 features an ATI M7 High Performance graphics controller
with 16MB embedded memory. Supporting up to 1.2GHz, this
small-footprint motherboard comes with four serial ports, and four USB
ports support, watchdog timer and one PCI slot for added functionality
and expandability.
About the processor features:
Enhanced LongRun Power Management
Unlike conventional x86 processors, Transmeta’s Enhanced LongRun
power management technology is part of the Efficeon processor’s Code
Morphing Software. This combination allows the Efficeon processor to
seamlessly adjust its operating frequency and voltage up to hundreds of
times per second —dramatically extending battery life, limiting heat
dissipation yet providing rapid system responsiveness.
Operating System Solutions
Efficeon TM8600 processors are designed to run with the full suite of
x86 compatible operating systems, including Microsoft® Windows NT,
Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows XP Tablet PC Edition.
These processors are also designed to work optimally with Linux
operating systems.

Installing the Memory
The MB860 board supports one DDR SO-DIMM sockets for a
maximum total memory of 1GB in DDR memory type. The memory
module capacities supported are 128MB, 256MB, 512MB and 1GB. The
following table lists the supported DDR DIMM configurations. MB860
supports configurations defined in the JEDEC DDR DIMM
specification only.
Installing and Removing Memory Modules
To install the DDR modules, locate the memory slot on the board and
perform the following steps:
1. Hold the DDR module so that the key of the DDR module align with
those on the memory slot.
2. Gently push the DDR module in an upright position until the clips of
the slot close to hold the DDR module in place when the DDR module
touches the bottom of the slot.
3. To remove the DDR module, press the clips with both hands.
