Before You Begin
Warnings and Cautions
WARNING
Disconnect the desktop board’s power supply from its ac power
source before you connect or disconnect cables, or install or remove
any desktop board components. Failure to do this can result in
personal injury or equipment damage. Some circuitry on the
desktop board can continue to operate even though the front panel
power switch is off.
CAUTION
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage desktop board components.
Install the desktop board at an ESD-controlled workstation. If such a
workstation is not available, wear an antistatic wrist strap.
Safety and Regulatory Requirements
See the Intel®Desktop Board D815EGEW Product Guide for all applicable
regulatory compliance statements, product certification markings, and safety and
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards and regulations the desktop
board is compliant with.
Replacement battery warning label provided: Place the label inside the chassis
in an easy-to-see location near the battery but not on the board itself.
Intended uses: This product was evaluated as information technology
equipment (I.T.E.) for home or office use when installed in an appropriate
computer chassis. Other end uses or locations may require further evaluation.

Memory Modules
✏ NOTE
The D815EGEW board uses 1 MB of system memory at boot up for
video, specifically for legacy VGA graphics. Once the operating system
boots, this 1 MB memory is not visible to the operating system.
The two DIMM sockets on the board support the following memory features:
• 3.3 V, 168-pin SDRAM Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMMs) with gold-
plated contacts
• Unbuffered single or double-sided DIMM configurations
• 100 MHz PC100 SDRAM (all system bus frequencies)
• 133 MHz PC133 SDRAM (only supported with 133 MHz system bus)

Intel Desktop Board D815EGEW Quick Reference 5
• Minimum system memory: 64 MB
• Maximum system memory: 512 MB
• Non-SPD defaults at 100 MHz
• Mixed speed DIMM configuration will default to the slowest speed DIMM
installed

✏NOTES
All memory components and DIMMs used with the desktop boards must
comply with the PC SDRAM specifications. These include the PC
SDRAM Specification (memory component specific), the PC Unbuffered
DIMM Specification, and the PC Registered DIMM Specification. To view
or download these specifications, refer to this Intel World Wide Web site:
http://www.intel.com/technology/memory/pcsdram/

CAUTION
Many of the internal desktop board connectors provide operating voltage
(+5 V dc and +12 V dc, for example) to devices inside the computer
chassis, such as fans and internal peripherals. These connectors are not
overcurrent protected. Do not use these connectors for powering devices
external to the computer chassis. A fault in the load presented by the
external devices could cause damage to the computer, the
interconnecting cables, and the external devices themselves.

Installation Steps
1Installing Memory Modules
CAUTION
Devices in PCI slot 1 may interfere with the memory retention mechanism.
Remove the device from PCI slot 1 before adding or removing memory.
The D815EGEW board requires that DIMMs be installed as shown in the figure
below. The two DIMM sockets are arranged as banks 0 and 1 as shown below.
If installing a single DIMM, install it in bank 0.
OM12552
01
To install DIMMs, follow these steps:
1. Observe the precautions in “Before You Begin”(see page 3).
2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the computer. Turn off and
unplug the computer.
3. Remove the computer cover and locate the DIMM sockets.
4. Holding the DIMM by the edges, remove it from its antistatic package.
5. Make sure the clips at either end of the socket are pushed away from the
socket as shown above.
6. Position the DIMM above the socket. Align the two small notches in the
bottom edge of the DIMM with the keys in the socket.
7. Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket.
8. When the DIMM is inserted, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until
the retaining clips snap into place. Make sure the clips are firmly in place.
9. Replace the computer cover.

2 Installing the I/O Shield
The desktop board comes with an I/O shield. When installed in the chassis, the
shield blocks radio frequency transmissions, protects internal components from
dust and foreign objects, and promotes correct airflow within the chassis.
Install the I/O shield before installing the desktop board in the chassis. Place the
shield inside the chassis as shown in the following figure. Press the shield into
place so that it fits tightly and securely. If the shield doesn’t fit, obtain a
properly-sized shield from the chassis supplier.
OM12554

10 Intel Desktop Board D815EGEW Quick Reference
3 Installing the Desktop Board
Refer to your chassis manual for specific instructions on installing and removing
the desktop board.
Secure the desktop board to the chassis standoffs using six screws. Insert the
screws in the mounting holes shown in the figure below.
OM12555
4 Installing the Processor
Follow the instructions included with the boxed processor.

Intel Desktop Board D815EGEW Quick Reference 11
5 Connecting the Fans
The following figure shows the location of the fan connectors. If you are
installing a processor with an active fan heatsink, connect the processor’s fan
cable to the desktop board connector labeled J1B1 (fan 1). Connect the chassis
fan cable to the desktop board connector labeled J9G1 (fan 2).

6 Connecting the IDE Drives
✏ NOTE
If the cable select option is enabled on your IDE drive, the primary drive
must be connected to the black connector on the IDE cable.
The Intel®boxed desktop board package includes one IDE cable. The cable can
connect two drives to the desktop board. The cable supports the Ultra DMA-33
(40-contact) and ATA-66/100 (40-contact, 80-conductor) transfer protocols and
is backward compatible with drives using slower IDE transfer protocols.
For the cable to function correctly:
1. Attach the cable end with the single connector (A), which is blue and
labeled P1, to the desktop board.
2. Attach the cable end with the two closely spaced connectors (B), which are
gray (for secondary drive) and black (for primary drive) and are labeled
P2 and P3, to the drives.

Setting the BIOS Setup Configuration Jumper
Block
The BIOS Setup configuration jumper block determines the operating mode of
the BIOS Setup Program and enables BIOS recovery in the event of a failed
BIOS upgrade. The following figure shows the location of the configuration
jumper (C6D6).
