If an FCC declaration of conformity marking is present on the board, the following statement applies:

FCC Declaration of Conformity

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device

may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that

may cause undesired operation.

For questions related to the EMC performance of this product, contact:

Intel Corporation

5200 N.E. Elam Young Parkway

Hillsboro, OR 97124

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the

FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential

installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee

that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct

the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit other than the one to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Any changes or modifications to the equipment not expressly approved by Intel Corporation could void the user’s authority to

operate the equipment.

Tested to comply with FCC standards for home or office use.

Canadian Department of Communications Compliance Statement

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the

Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Le présent appareil numerique német pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils

numériques de la classe B prescrites dans le Réglement sur le broullage radioélectrique édicté par le ministére des

Communications du Canada.

Input/Output (I/O) Controller

The super I/O controller features the following:

• One serial port

• One parallel port with Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) and Enhanced Parallel Port

(EPP) support

• Serial IRQ interface compatible with serialized IRQ support for PCI systems

• PS/2-style mouse and keyboard interfaces

• Interface for one 1.2 MB, 1.44 MB, or 2.88 MB diskette drive

• Intelligent power management, including a programmable wake up event interface

• PCI power management support

LAN Subsystem

The LAN, with the Intel 82801GH I/O Controller Hub, provides a Fast PCI LAN subsystem. The

LAN subsystem provides the following functions:

• Intel 82573V or 82573L Ethernet LAN supporting 10/100/1000 Mbit/sec

• Support for RJ-45 connector with status indicator LEDs

• Configurable EEPROM that contains the MAC address

Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Support

NOTE

Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port might not meet FCC

Class B requirements, even if no device or a low-speed USB device is attached to the cable.

Use a shielded cable that meets the requirements for a full-speed USB device.

The desktop board supports up to eight USB 2.0 ports via ICH7; four ports routed to the back

panel and four routed to two internal USB 2.0 headers. USB 2.0 ports are backward compatible

with USB 1.1 devices. USB 1.1 devices will function normally at USB 1.1 speeds.

USB 2.0 support requires both an operating system and drivers that fully support USB 2.0 transfer

rates. Disabling Hi-Speed USB in the BIOS reverts all USB 2.0 ports to USB 1.1 operation. This

may be required to accommodate operating systems that do not support USB 2.0.

Desktop Board Features

17

Enhanced IDE Interface

The ICH7 IDE interface handles the exchange of information between the processor and peripheral

devices like hard disks, CD-ROM drives, and Iomega Zip* drives inside the computer. The

interface supports:

• Up to two IDE devices (such as hard drives)

• ATAPI-style devices (such as CD-ROM drives)

• Older PIO Mode devices

• Ultra DMA-33 and ATA-66/100 protocols

Serial ATA

The desktop board supports eight Serial ATA channels, connecting one device per channel in either

a RAID or a non-RAID configuration.

Expandability

The desktop board supports the following:

• One PCI Express x16 card as an electrical x16 card or two PCI Express x16 cards as electrical

x8 cards

• One PCI Express x16 card as an electrical x4 card

• Two PCI bus add-in cards

Related Links

For information about installing a PCI Express x16 card, see page 35 in Chapter 2.

BIOS

The BIOS provides the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, the PCI and IDE

auto-configuration utilities, and the video BIOS.

See Chapter 3 on page 57 for more information about the BIOS.

Serial ATA and IDE Auto Configuration

If you connect a Serial ATA or IDE device (such as a hard drive) to your desktop board, the auto-

configuration utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the device for your computer.

You do not need to run the BIOS Setup program after installing a Serial ATA or IDE device. You

can override the auto-configuration options by specifying manual configuration in the BIOS Setup

program.

When booting from a Serial ATA device, the device connected to Serial ATA connector 0 is the

first boot device and the device connected to Serial ATA connector 3 is the last boot device by

default.

Intel Desktop Board D975XBX Product Guide

18

PCI and PCI Express* Auto Configuration

If you install a PCI/PCI Express add-in card in your desktop board, the PCI/PCI Express auto-

configuration utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the resources (IRQs, DMA

channels, and I/O space) for that add-in card. You do not need to run the BIOS Setup program after

you install a PCI/PCI Express add-in card.

Security Passwords

The BIOS includes security features that restrict whether the BIOS Setup program can be accessed

and who can boot the computer. A supervisor password and a user password can be set for the

BIOS Setup and for booting the computer, with the following restrictions:

• The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all Setup options. If

only the supervisor password is set, pressing <Enter> at the password prompt of Setup gives

the user restricted access to Setup.

• If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, you must enter either the supervisor

password or the user password to access Setup. Setup options are then available for viewing

and changing depending on whether the supervisor or user password was entered.

• Setting a user password restricts who can boot the computer. The password prompt is

displayed before the computer is booted. If only the supervisor password is set, the computer

boots without asking for a password. If both passwords are set, you can enter either password

to boot the computer.
