front side bus termination moudle must be used.
Intel AGPset: Features Intel’s 440GX AGPset with I/O subsystems and front-
side bus (FSB) platform, which boosts the traditional 66-MHz internal bus speed
to 100MHz.
PC100 Memory Support: Equipped with four DIMM sockets to support Intel
PC100-compliant SDRAMs (8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 512MB) up to 2048MB.
Network Interface: Features the Intel 82558 Fast-Ethernet Controller (fully
integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) which supports Wake-On-LAN.
Wake-On-LAN Connector: Supports a secondary Wake-On–LAN activity with

Adaptec SCSI Chipset: Features Adaptec AIC-7896 dual-channel Ultra2 SCSI
chipset that supports any combination of 50-pin narrow or 68-pin wide/ultra2
devices through the onboard 50-pin and 68-pin SCSI connectors.
AGP Slot: Supports Accelerated Graphics Port cards for high performance, com-
ponent level interconnect targeted at 3D graphical display applications.
PCI/ISA Expansion Slots: Provides five 32-bit PCI and one 16-bit ISA slots.
(PCI4 and PCI5 has shared interrupt)
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.
Ultra DMA/33 Bus Master IDE/Floppy: Comes with an onboard PCI Bus
Master IDE controller with two connectors that supports four IDE devices in
two channels, supports UltraDMA/33, PIO Modes 3 and 4 and Bus Master IDE
DMA Mode 2, and supports Enhanced IDE devices. Two floppy drives of either
5.25inch or 3.5inch (1.44MB or 2.88MB) are also supported without an external
card. Supports Japanese standard “Floppy 3 mode” (3.5-inch disk drive: 1.2MB)
and LS-120 floppy disk drives (3.5-inch disk drive: 120 MB, 1.44MB, 720KB).
BIOS supports IDE CD-ROM or SCSI device boot-up.
SB-Link™: Features Creative’s SB-Link™, allowing SB16 compatibility, us-
ing Intel’s PC-PCI technology, to AWE64D or compatible PCI audio cards.
