Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with surface mount 604-pin Zero Insertion Force
(ZIF) sockets. The sockets are designed for the Intel® Xeon™ processor in
the 604-pin package with 1 MB L2 cache. The new generation Xeon™
processor supports 800 MHz system bus and Extended Memory 64-bit
Technology (EM64T).
The motherboard supports either one or two CPUs. If you are installing
only one CPU, you MUST install it in CPU socket 1.

You may install 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB registered ECC DDR
DIMMs into the DIMM sockets.
•
Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum
compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules
from the same vendor. Refer to the DDR Qualified Vendors List on
the ASUS website for details.
•
Due to chipset resource allocation, the system may detect less than
16 GB system memory when you install eight 2 GB DDR memory
modules.
•
Three DDR DIMMs intalled into any three memory sockets will
function in single-channel mode.
•
If installing only one pair of DIMMs, install them in sockets DIMM_B4
and DIMM_A4.

This jumper allows you to clear the Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM in
CMOS. You can clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and system
setup parameters by erasing the CMOS RTC RAM data. The onboard
button cell battery powers the RAM data in CMOS, which include
system setup information such as system passwords.
To erase the RTC RAM:
1.
Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.
2.
Remove the onboard battery.
3.
Move the jumper cap from pins 1-2 (default) to pins 2-3. Keep the
cap on pins 2-3 for about 5~10 seconds, then move the cap back
to pins 1-2.
4.
Re-install the battery.
5.
Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.
6.
Hold down the key during the boot process and enter BIOS
setup to re-enter data.
Except when clearing the RTC RAM, never remove the cap on CLRTC
jumper default position. Removing the cap will cause system boot failure!

Set these jumpers to +5V to wake up the computer from S1 sleep
mode (CPU stopped, DRAM refreshed, system running in low power
mode) using the connected USB devices. Set to +5VSB to wake up
from S3 and S4 sleep modes (no power to CPU, DRAM in slow refresh,
power supply in reduced power mode).
•
The USB device wake-up feature requires a power supply that can
provide 500mA on the +5VSB lead for each USB port; otherwise, the
system would not power up.
•
The total current consumed must NOT exceed the power supply
capability (+5VSB) whether under normal condition or in sleep mode.

These connectors are for Ultra DMA 100/66/33 signal cables. The Ultra
DMA 100/66/33 signal cable has three connectors: a blue connector for
the primary IDE connector on the motherboard, a gray connector for an
Ultra DMA 100/66 IDE master device (hard disk drive), and a black
connector for an Ultra DMA 100/66/33 IDE slave device (optical drive/
hard disk drive). If you install two hard disk drives, you must configure
the second drive as a slave device by setting its jumper accordingly.
Refer to the hard disk documentation for the jumper settings.
Pin 5 on the connector is removed to prevent incorrect cable connection
when using a FDD cable with a covered Pin 5.
•
Pin 20 on the IDE connectors are removed to match the covered
hole on the Ultra DMA cable connector. This prevents incorrect
insertion when you connect the IDE cable.
•
Use the 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra DMA 100/66/33 IDE devices.

This motherboard comes with the Adaptec® AIC-7902 SCSI U320
controller that support two 68-Pin Ultra320 SCSI connectors, one for
each of the two channels. Each channel can support a maximum of 15
devices as specified by Ultra320 standards.
SCSI Connection Notes

SCSI Connection Notes
This motherboard has two 68-Pin Ultra320 SCSI connectors; one for
each of the two channels.
The onboard SCSI chipset incorporates an advanced multimode I/O cell
that supports both single-ended (SE), Ultra2, Ultra160, and Ultra320
devices. With Ultra320 devices, the SCSI bus platform performs at full
Ultra320 speeds (up to 320MB/s) and extended cabling 12m (or 25m
in a point-to-point configuration). When an SE device is attached, the
bus defaults to an SE speed and 1.5m cable length.
Connect SCSI devices as shown. Each channel should have only one
type of SCSI standard (e.g. Ultra320, Ultra160, Ultra2, Ultra-Wide).
Mixing SCSI devices on the same channel decreases performance of
the slower device.

BIOS setup program
This motherboard supports a programmable firmware chip that you can
update using the provided utility described in section “5.1 Managing and
updating your BIOS.”
Use the BIOS Setup program when you are installing a motherboard,
reconfiguring your system, or prompted to “Run Setup”. This section
explains how to configure your system using this utility.
Even if you are not prompted to use the Setup program, you can change
the configuration of your computer in the future. For example, you can
enable the security password feature or change the power management
settings. This requires you to reconfigure your system using the BIOS
Setup program so that the computer can recognize these changes and
record them in the CMOS RAM of the firmware hub.
The firmware hub on the motherboard stores the Setup utility. When you
start up the computer, the system provides you with the opportunity to
run this program. Press during the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) to
enter the Setup utility; otherwise, POST continues with its test routines.
If you wish to enter Setup after POST, restart the system by pressing
, or by pressing the reset button on the system chassis.
You can also restart by turning the system off and then back on. Do this
last option only if the first two failed.
The Setup program is designed to make it as easy to use as possible. Being
a menu-driven program, it lets you scroll through the various sub-menus
and make your selections from the available options using the navigation
keys.
•
The default BIOS settings for this motherboard apply for most
conditions to ensure optimum performance. If the system becomes
unstable after changing any BIOS settings, load the default settings
to ensure system compatibility and stability. Select the L o a d
