The MSI LPX ZX4 mainboard is a high-performance all-in-one computer
mainboard based on the Intel®CeleronTM processor. This mainboard
combines leading edge SiS 6326 AGP technology in graphics, Creative®
ES1373PCItechnologyinaudio,andIntel®82558 10/100M Ethernet for
LAN. The Intel®CeleronTM processor supports MMXTM (Multimedia
Extension) technology.
The mainboard uses the highly integrated Intel®82443ZX AGPset to support
the PCI/ISA and Green standards, and to provide the Host/AGP bridge. The
Intel®82371EB chipset integrates all system control functions such as ACPI
(Advanced Configuration and Power Interface). The ACPI provides more
Energy Saving Features for the OSPM(OS Direct Power Management)
function. The Intel®82371EB chipset also improves the IDE transfer rate by
supporting Ultra DMA/33 IDE that transfers data at the rate of 33MB/s.
The mainboard also supports the System Hardware Monitor Controller as an
optional function. Its functions include: CPU fan revolution detect, CPU/
system voltage monitor, system temperature monitor, and chassis intrusion
detect(optional).
