1.2.1. The 845D-MVT Mainboard 

The 845D-MVT mainboard is a Pentium™ 4 DDR platform. It supports a maxi-

mum memory of 2GB and comes with 4 USB (vesion 1.1) ports. Onboard it 

has three PCI slots, one 1x/2x/4x AGP slot (which only supports 1.5V AGP 

cards), and an Onboard Audio (AC’97 2 channels). It also comes with three 

fan connectors (for additional thermal protection) and three power supply con-

nectors. It also has a WOL (Wake-On-Lan) connector that enables it to be 

“woken up” from a soft-off power state when it receives a signal from the LAN. 

Other onboard connectors include Aux-IN and CD-IN connectors.
