The processor, in addition to its expanded data and addressing capabilities, includes the following features:

  • Ready for the next generation OverDrive processor
  • On-chip numeric co-processor
  • 32 KB Level 1 cache (16 KB for data, 16 KB for code)
  • 128 KB Pipeline Burst Level 2 cache
  • Read and write burst mode bus cycles
  • Intel 810 chipset
  • Integrated 230 MHz RAMDAC Graphics Controller configured for 8M or 11M of Dymanic Video Memory
  • SDRAM memory expandable to 512 Mbytes

Warnings when working with system components  

    CAUTION: Make sure to unplug the power supply when adding or removing expansion cards or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both the motherboard and expansion.

    CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage the processor, the disk drives, the expansion boards, and other components. Always observe the following precautions before installing a system component.

    1. Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until ready to install it.

    2. Wear a wrist-grounding strap and attach it to a metal part of the system unit before handling components. If a wrist strap is not available, maintain contact with the system unit throughout any procedure requiring ESD protection.

    CAUTION: Integrated circuits are extremely susceptible to electrostatic discharge. Do not handle ICs unless you are a qualified service technician using tools and techniques that conform to accepted industry practices.

Jumper locations and functions  

There are no jumper blocks to set on this motherboard. Intel Socket 370 Celeron processors have locked frequency multiples and use an external frequency of 66 MHz.

About system memory  

The motherboard has two dual in-line memory module (DIMM) sockets. Minimum memory size is 16 MB; maximum memory size is 512 MB. The BIOS automatically detects memory type, size, and speed.
The motherboard supports the following memory features:

  • 168-pin DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
  • 66 MHz SDRAM or 100 MHz SDRAM depending on system
  • Non-ECC (64-bit) and ECC (72-bit) memory
  • 3.3 V memory only
  • Single- or double-sided DIMMs

    SDRAM

    Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) improves memory performance through memory access that is synchronous with the memory clock. This simplifies the timing design and increases memory speed because all timing is dependent on the number of memory clock cycles.
    NOTE: To function properly, SDRAM DIMMs must meet the Intel 4-clock, 66 MHz, unbuffered SDRAM specification for either 64-bit or 72-bit SDRAM.

    System memory (DIMM)

    This motherboard uses only DIMMs. Sockets are available for 3.3 Volt (power level) unbuffered Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) of 16, 32, 64, 128 MB, or 256 MB.

    This chipset does not support ECC. However, ECC memory modules may still be used, but the ECC function will not be available.

    The DIMMs must be 3.3V unbuffered for this motherboard. To determine the DIMM type, check the notches on the DIMMs.
    NOTE: No hardware or BIOS setup is required after adding or removing memory.

IDE support  

The motherboard provides two independent high performance bus-mastering PCI IDE interfaces capable of supporting PIO Mode 3, Mode 4, and ATAPI devices (e.g., CD-ROM). The system BIOS supports logical block addressing (LBA) and extended cylinder sector head (ECSH) translation modes. IDE device transfer rate and translation modes are automatically detected by the system BIOS.

Usually, programmed I/O operations require a substantial amount of processor bandwidth. However, in multitasking operating systems, the bandwidth freed by bus mastering IDE can be devoted to other tasks while disk transfers are occurring.

Universal Serial Bus (USB) support  

The motherboard features two USB ports that permit the direct connection of two USB peripherals, one to each port. For more than two USB devices, an external hub can be connected to either of the built-in ports. The motherboard fully supports the universal host controller interface (UHCI) and uses software drivers that are UHCI-compatible.

    Features of USB include:

    • Self-identifying peripherals that can be hot-plugged
    • Automatic mapping of function to driver and configuration
    • Support for isochronous and asynchronous transfer types over the same set of wires
    • Support for up to 127 physical devices
    • Guaranteed bandwidth and low latencies appropriate for telephony, audio, and other applications
    • Error-handling and fault-recovery mechanisms built into the protocol

Replacing the battery  

The Setup information is stored in CMOS RAM and is backed up by a battery when power to the system is off. The battery also keeps the system clock current. As long as the internal battery remains good and is connected, the clock continues to keep the date and time accurately and the Setup information will remain intact.

    WARNING: Danger of explosion if the battery is not correctly replaced

Replace the battery with the same manufacturer's 3V Lithium battery, which is type CR2032. Discard the used battery according to the manufacturer's instructions. The location of the battery on the motherboard can be found in the system board layout (Figure 1).
