ASUS P/I-P55TVP4 User's Manual2
Features of This Motherboard
The P/I-P55TVP4 is carefully designed for the demanding PC user who wants a
great many features in a small package. This motherboard:
• Easy Installation: Is equipped with BIOS that supports auto detection of hard
drives and Plug and Play to make setup of hard drives and expansion cards
virtually automatic.
• Multi-Processor Support: Supports one Pentium (75MHz-200MHz), Cyrix
166+ (Rev 2.7 or later), or AMD-K5 (PR 75, 90, 100). (see p.10)
• Intel Chipset: Features Intel's 430VX PCIset with I/O subsystems.
• Desktop Management Interface (DMI): Supports DMI through BIOS which
allows hardware to communicate within a standard protocol creating a higher
level of compatibility. (Requires DMI-enabled components.) (See section V)
• L2 Cache: Comes in 0KB, 256KB, or 512KB Pipelined Burst SRAM ver-
sion, each version is upgradeable to 256KB or 512KB. Upgrades are made
through a Synchronous SRAM cache module. (See page 14 for compatible
cache modules.)
• Versatile DRAM Memory Support: Supports 72-pin SIMMs of 4MB, 8MB,
16MB, or 32MB to form a memory size between 8MB to 128MB. Supports
both Fast Page Mode (FPM) and Extended Data Output (EDO) SIMMs. Sup-
ports a 168-pin DIMM for one SDRAM (8, 16, 32MB).
• ISA and PCI Expansion Slots: Provides three 16-bit ISA slots, three 32-bit
PCI slots, and one PCI/MediaBus 2.0 which allows the use of either a standard
PCI card or the ASUS MediaBus Card.
• ASUS MediaBus Rev 2.0: Features an expansion slot extension shared with
PCI Slot 4 for an optional high-performance expansion card which includes
two functions in one easy-to-install card.
• Super Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART compatible serial ports
and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. UART2 can also be
directed from COM2 to the Infrared Module for wireless connections. Two
floppy drives of either 5.25" or 3.5" (1.44MB or 2.88MB) are also supported
without an external card. The Japanese "Floppy 3 mode" (3.5" 1.2MB)
floppy standard is also supported.
• PCI Bus Master IDE Controller: Comes with an onboard PCI Bus Master
IDE controller with two connectors that supports four IDE devices in two chan-
nels, provides faster data transfer rates, and supports Enhanced IDE devices
such as Tape Backup and CD-ROM drives. This controller supports PIO Modes
3 and 4 and Bus Master IDE DMA Mode 2. BIOS supports IDE CD-ROM
boot-up.
