Features
The Watchdog Timer function allows yourapplication to regularly “clear” the system at
the set time interval. If the system hangs or fails to function, it willreset at the set time interval so that your system will continue tooperate.
DDR2 is a higher performance DDR technologywhose data transfer rate delivers bandwidth of 4.3
GB per second and beyond. That is twice the speed of the conven-tional DDR without increasing its power consumption. DDR2SDRAM modules work at 1.8V supply compared to 2.6V memoryvoltage for DDR modules. DDR2 also incorporates new innovationssuch as the On-Die Termination (ODT) as well as larger 4-bit pre-fetch against DDR which fetches 2 bits per clock cycle.
The Intel 945GM northbridge chip comes integratedwith the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 deliv-
ering exceptional 3D graphics performance. It supports analog CRTinterface.
The audio jacks at the rear panel willsupport 5.1-channel audio only when the
audio utility is configured to support this function. The mic-in at therear will be disabled. Use the front audio’s mic-in jack.
S/PDIF is a standard audio file transfer format thattransfers digital audio signals to a device without
having to be converted first to an analog format. This prevents thequality of the audio signal from degrading whenever it is convertedto analog. S/PDIF is usually found on digital audio equipment such asa DAT machine or audio processing device. The S/PDIF connector onthe system board sends surround sound and 3D audio signal out-puts to amplifiers and speakers and to digital recording devices likeCD recorders.

Serial ATA is a storage interface that is compliantwith SATA 1.0 specification. With speed of up to
3Gbps (CT132-BR) or 1.5Gbps (CT132-B), it improves hard driveperformance faster than the standard parallel ATA whose data trans-fer rate is 100MB/s. The Intel ICH7R chip on CT132-BR allowsconfiguring RAID on Serial ATA drives. It supports RAID 0, RAID 1,RAID 0+1 and RAID 5.
The Realtek PCI Express Gigabit LAN controllersupports up to 1Gbps data transmission.
The system board is equipped with an IrDA connec-tor for wireless connectivity between your computer
and peripheral devices. The IRDA (Infrared Data Association) specifi-cation supports data transfers of 115K baud at a distance of 1meter.
The system board supports USB 2.0 and USB 1.1ports. USB 1.1 supports 12Mb/second bandwidth
while USB 2.0 supports 480Mb/second bandwidth providing amarked improvement in device transfer speeds between your com-puter and a wide range of simultaneously accessible external Plugand Play peripherals.
This feature allows the system that is in theSuspend mode or Soft Power Off mode to
wake-up/power-on to respond to calls coming from an external mo-dem or respond to calls from a modem PCI card that uses the PCIPME (Power Management Event) signal to remotely wake up thePC.
Important:The 5V_standby power source of your power supply must sup-port ≥720mA.

This feature allows the network to remotelywake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC.
It is supported via the onboard LAN port or via a PCI LAN cardthat uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal. However,if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can power-on the systemonly through an IRQ or DMA interrupt.
Important:The 5V_standby power source of your power supply must sup-port ≥720mA.
This function allows you to use the PS/2 key-board or PS/2 mouse to power-on the sys-
tem.
Important:The 5V_standby power source of your power supply must sup-port ≥720mA.
This function allows you to use a USB key-board 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 for2 USB ports, the 5V_standby power source of your power sup-ply must support ≥1.5A. For 3 or more USB ports, the5V_standby power source of your power supply must support≥2A.

The RTC installed on the system board allows yoursystem to automatically power-on on the set date
and time.
The system board is designed to meet the ACPI(Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) speci-
fication. ACPI has energy saving features that enables PCs to imple-ment Power Management and Plug-and-Play with operating systemsthat support OS Direct Power Management. Currently, only Win-dows®®®®® 2000/XP supports the ACPI function. ACPI when enabled inthe Power Management Setup will allow you to use the Suspend toRAM function.
With the Suspend to RAM function enabled, you can power-off thesystem at once by pressing the power button or selecting “Standby”when you shut down Windows®®®®® 2000/XP without having to gothrough the sometimes tiresome process of closing files, applicationsand operating system. This is because the system is capable of stor-ing all programs and data files during the entire operating sessioninto RAM (Random Access Memory) when it powers-off. The oper-ating session will resume exactly where you left off the next time youpower-on the system.
Important:The 5V_standby power source of your power supply must sup-port ≥720mA.
When power returns after an AC power fail-ure, you may choose to either power-on thesystem manually or let the system power-on
automatically.

3BIOS SetupAdvanced Chipset Features
This section gives you functions to configure the system based onthe specific features of the chipset. The chipset manages bus speedsand access to system memory resources. These items should notbe altered unless necessary. The default settings have been chosenbecause they provide the best operating conditions for your system.The only time you might consider making any changes would be ifyou discovered some incompatibility or that data was being lostwhile using your system.
DRAM Timing Selectable
This field is used to select the timing of the DRAM.
By SPD The EEPROM on a DIMM has SPD (Serial Pres-ence Detect) data structure that stores informa-tion about the module such as the memory type,memory size, memory speed, etc. When this op-tion is selected, the system will run according tothe information in the EEPROM. This option is thedefault setting because it provides the most sta-ble condition for the system. The “CAS LatencyTime” and “Precharge Delay” fields will show thedefault settings by SPD.
