Introduction
P4I865G/P/PEA series of mainboards utilize ( Intel®865G/P/PE
+ICH5/5R)chipset, providing a fully compatible, high performance
and cost-effective ATX platform. The new integrated technologies,
together with AC’97 audio, onboard VGA connector(supported on
P4I865GA only), integrated LAN(optional), 4 USB 2.0 ports
(Expanded capabilities for eight USB 2.0 ports), ATA100/66/33
and SATA, give customers an advanced, multimedia solution at
reasonable price. It provides 400/533/800MHz(supported on
P4I865G/PEA only) host bus speed to support Intel®Pentium®4
socket 478 processors and the largest DDR memory capacity is
up to 4GB. It also provides advanced features such as Wake up
by USB devices, Wake-on-LAN, ACPI function. Suspend to RAM,
the optimal implementation of the Advanced Configuration and
Power Interface (ACPI) specification, makes the PC’s power con-
sumption drop to the lowest possible level and enable quick wake
up.
