1.2 Special Features of the System Board
Hyper-Threading Technology Functionality Requirements
The system board supports Intel processors with Hyper-Threading Technology. Enabling the
functionality of Hyper-Threading Technology for your computer system requires ALL of the
following platforms.
Components:
CPU -an Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor with HT Technology
Chipset –an Intel®chipset that supports HT Technology
BIOS -a BIOS that supports HT Technology and has it enabled
OS -an operating system that includes optimizations for HT Technology
Please refer to Appendix B for information about enabling the functionality of the
Hyper-Threading Technology. For more information on Hyper-Threading Technology, go to:
www.intel.com/info/ hyperthreading.
Watchdog Timer
The Watchdog Timer function allows your application to regularly “clear” the system at the set
time interval. If the system hangs or fails to function, it will reset at the set time interval so that
your system will continue to operate.
DDR
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.
S/PDIF
S/PDIF is a standard audio file transfer format that transfers digital audio signals to a device
without having to be converted first to an analog format. This prevents the quality of the audio
signal from degrading whenever it is converted to analog. S/PDIF is usually found on digital audio
equipment such as a DAT machine or audio processing device. The S/PDIF connector on the
system board sends surround sound and 3D audio signal outputs to amplifiers and speakers and to
digital recording devices like CD recorders.
IrDA Interface
The system board is equipped with an IrDA connector for wireless connectivity between your
computer and peripheral devices. The IRDA (Infrared Data Association) specification supports data
transfers of 115K baud at a distance of 1 meter.
USB Ports
The system board supports USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports. USB 1.1 supports 12Mb/second
bandwidth while USB 2.0 supports 480Mb/ second bandwidth providing a marked improvement in
device transfer speeds between your computer and a wide range of simultaneously accessible
external Plug and Play peripherals.

9
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.
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 port, 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/Mouse
This function allows you to use a USB keyboard or USB mouse to wake up a system from the
S3 (STR -Suspend To RAM) state.
Important:
If you are using the Wake-On-USB Keyboard/Mouse 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/Mouse function for 3 or more USB ports,
the 5VSB power source of your power supply must support ≥2A.
RTC Timer to Power-on the System
The RTC installed on the system board allows your system to automatically power-on on the
set date and time.

10
ACPI STR
The system board is designed to meet the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface)
specification. ACPI has energy saving features that enables PCs to implement Power Management
and Plug-and-Play with operating systems that support OS Direct Power Management. Currently,
only Windows® 98/2000/ME/XP supports the ACPI function. ACPI when enabled in the Power
Management Setup will allow you to use the Suspend to RAM function.
With the Suspend to RAM function enabled, you can power-off the system at once by pressing
the power button or selecting “Standby” when you shut down Windows® 98/2000/ME/XP without
having to go through the sometimes tiresome process of closing files, applications and operating
system. This is because the system is capable of storing all programs and data files during the entire
operating session into RAM (Random Access Memory) when it powers-off. The operating session
will resume exactly where you left off the next time you power-on the system.
Important:
The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support ≥1A.
Virus Protection
Most viruses today destroy data stored in hard drives. The system board is designed to protect
the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk drive.
1.3 Package Checklist
