Desktop Board Features Processor CAUTION Failure to use an appropriate power supply and/or not connecting the 12 V (2 x 2 pin) power connector to the desktop board may result in damage to the board or the system may not function properly. Desktop Board D946GZAB supports an Intel processor in the LGA775 package. Processors are not included with the desktop board and must be purchased separately. The processor connects to the desktop board through the LGA775 socket.
Intel Desktop Board D946GZAB Product Guide Main Memory NOTE To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel® SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. If your memory modules do not support SPD, you will see a notification to this effect on the screen at power up. The BIOS will attempt to configure the memory controller for normal operation.
Desktop Board Features Intel® 946GZ Express Chipset The Intel 946GZ Express Chipset consists of the following devices: • • Intel 946GZ Express Chipset Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) Intel 82801GB I/O Controller Hub (ICH7) The Intel 946GZ Express Chipset contains two separate, mutually exclusive graphics options. Either the integrated GMA 3000 graphics controller is used or a PCI Express x16 add-in card can be used.

Desktop Board Features RJ-45 LAN Connector LEDs Two LEDs are built into the RJ-45 LAN connector located on the back panel (see Figure 2). These LEDs indicate the status of the LAN. Figure 2. LAN Connector LEDs Table 3 describes the LED states when the board is powered up and the LAN subsystem is operating. Table 3.
Intel Desktop Board D946GZAB Product Guide Enhanced IDE Interface The desktop board’s IDE interface handles the exchange of information between the processor and peripheral devices such as hard disk drives and CD-ROM drives. 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 four Serial ATA channels (3.
Desktop Board Features PCI and PCI Express* Auto Configuration If you install a PCI/PCI Express add-in card in your computer, 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.
Intel Desktop Board D946GZAB Product Guide Chassis Intrusion Detection The board supports a chassis security feature that detects if the chassis cover has been removed. The security feature uses a mechanical switch on the chassis that can be connected to the chassis intrusion header on the desktop board. See Figure 24 on page 49 for the location of the chassis intrusion header.
Desktop Board Features Fan Headers The function/operation of the fans is as follows: • • • • • The fans are on when the computer is in the ACPI S0 state. The fans are off when the computer is in the ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state. Each fan header is wired to a tachometer input of the hardware monitoring and control device. All fan headers support closed-loop fan control that can adjust the fan speed or switch the fan on or off as needed. All fan headers have a +12 V dc connection.
Intel Desktop Board D946GZAB Product Guide The desktop board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification. Add-in cards that support this specification can participate in power management and can be used to wake the computer. +5 V Standby Power Indicator LED CAUTION If the AC power has been switched off and the standby power indicator is still lit, disconnect the power cord before installing or removing any devices connected to the board.
Desktop Board Features Wake from PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse PS/2 keyboard/mouse activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3 state. PME# Signal Wake-up Support When the PME# signal on the PCI bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state. WAKE# Signal Wake-up Support When the WAKE# signal on the PCI Express bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI S2, S3, S4, or S5 state. Speaker A speaker is mounted on the desktop board.

3 Updating the BIOS The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the computer. You can access the BIOS Setup program by pressing the key after the Power-On Self-Test (POST) memory test begins and before the operating system boot begins. This chapter tells you how to update the BIOS by either using the Intel Express BIOS Update utility or the Iflash Memory Update utility, and how to recover the BIOS if an update fails.
Intel Desktop Board D946GZAB Product Guide Updating the BIOS with the ISO Image BIOS Update File or the Iflash Memory Update Utility You can use the information in this section to update the BIOS using either the Iflash Memory Update Utility or the ISO Image BIOS update file. Obtaining the BIOS Update File You can update to a new version of the BIOS by using the ISO Image BIOS update file (recommended), or Iflash BIOS update file.
Updating the BIOS Follow these instructions to upgrade the BIOS using the ISO Image BIOS file: 1. Download the ISO Image BIOS file. 2. Using software capable of uncompressing and writing an ISO image file to CD, burn the data to a blank CD. NOTE Copying the ISO Image BIOS file to CD will not work. The completed CD should contain multiple files and a directory. 3. Insert the CD that was created in the CD-ROM drive of the computer to be upgraded and boot the system. 4.
Intel Desktop Board D946GZAB Product Guide CAUTION Do not interrupt the process or the system may not function properly. 1. Uncompress the BIOS update file and copy the .BIO file, IFLASH.EXE, and .ITK file (optional) to a bootable USB flash drive or other bootable USB media. 2. Configure the BIOS or use the F10 option during POST to boot to the USB device. 3. Manually run the IFLASH.EXE file from the USB device and manually update the BIOS.
A Error Messages and Indicators Desktop Board D946GZAB reports POST errors in two ways: • • By sounding a beep code By displaying an error message on the monitor BIOS Beep Codes The BIOS also issues a beep code (one long tone followed by two short tones) during POST if the video configuration fails (a faulty video card or no card installed) or if an external ROM module does not properly checksum to zero. Table 11 lists the BIOS codes. Table 11.
