Introduction
The presence of the power switch and reset switch on
the system board are user-friendly especially to DIY us-
ers. They provide convenience in powering on and/or re-
setting the system while fine tuning the system board
before it is installed into the system chassis.
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

www.intel.com/info/hyperthreading.
CPU Overheat Protection has the capability of monitoring
the CPU’s temperature during system boot up. Once the
CPU’s temperature exceeded the temperature limit pre-de-
fined by the CPU, the system will automatically shutdown.
This preventive measure has been added to protect the CPU from
damage and insure a safe computing environment.
The system board is equipped with an IrDA connector
for wireless connectivity between your computer and pe-
ripheral devices. The IRDA (Infrared Data Association)
specification supports data transfers of 115K baud at a
distance of 1 meter.
The system board supports USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports.
USB 1.1 supports 12Mb/second bandwidth while USB
2.0 suppor ts 480Mb/second bandwidth providing a
marked improvement in device transfer speeds between
your computer and a wide range of simultaneously accessible exter-
nal Plug and Play peripherals.
