Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 1.10.1.1 System States and Power States Under ACPI, the operating system directs all system and device power state transitions. The operating system puts devices in and out of low-power states based on user preferences and knowledge of how devices are being used by applications. Devices that are not being used can be turned off.
Product Description 1.10.1.2 Two-Watt Standby In 2001, the U.S. government issued an executive order requiring a reduction in power for appliances and personal computers. This board meets that requirement by operating at 1.5 W (or less) in S5 (Standby) mode. Two-Watt operation applies only to the S5 state when the computer is turned off, but still connected to AC power. Two-Watt operation does not apply to the S3 (Suspend to RAM) or S4 (Suspend to disk) states.
Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification • • • • • • • LAN wake capabilities Instantly Available PC technology Resume on Ring Wake from USB Wake from PS/2 keyboard PME# signal wake-up support WAKE# signal wake-up support LAN wake capabilities and Instantly Available PC technology require power from the +5 V standby line. Resume on Ring enables telephony devices to access the computer when it is in a power-managed state.
Product Description 1.10.2.3 LAN Wake Capabilities CAUTION For LAN wake capabilities, the +5 V standby line from the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing LAN wake capabilities can damage the power supply. LAN wake capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network. The LAN subsystem PCI bus network adapter monitors network traffic at the Media Independent Interface.
Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 1.10.2.6 Wake from USB USB bus activity wakes the computer from ACPI S3 state. NOTE Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB. 1.10.2.7 Wake from PS/2 Devices PS/2 device activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3 state. 1.10.2.8 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 (with Wake on PME enabled in BIOS). 1.10.2.

Technical Reference 2.8 Jumper Block CAUTION Do not move the jumper with the power on. Always turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the computer before changing a jumper setting. Otherwise, the board could be damaged. Figure 20 shows the location of the jumper block. The jumper determines the BIOS Setup program’s mode. Table 30 lists the jumper settings for the three modes: normal, configure, and recovery.
Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 2.9 Mechanical Considerations 2.9.1 Form Factor The board is designed to fit into an ATX- or microATX-form-factor chassis. Figure 21 illustrates the mechanical form factor of the board. Dimensions are given in inches [millimeters]. The outer dimensions are 9.60 inches by 9.60 inches [243.84 millimeters by 243.84 millimeters]. Location of the I/O connectors and mounting holes are in compliance with the ATX specification. 1.800 [45.72] 6.
Technical Reference 2.9.2 I/O Shield The back panel I/O shield for the board must meet specific dimension and material requirements. Systems based on this board need the back panel I/O shield to pass certification testing. Figure 22 shows the I/O shield. Dimensions are given in inches [millimeters]. The figure indicates the position of each cutout. Additional design considerations for I/O shields relative to chassis requirements are described in the ATX specification.
Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 2.10 Electrical Considerations 2.10.1 DC Loading Table 31 lists the DC loading characteristics of the board. This data is based on a DC analysis of all active components within the board that impact its power delivery subsystems. The analysis does not include PCI add-in cards. Minimum values assume a light load placed on the board that is similar to an environment with no applications running and no USB current draw.
Technical Reference 2.10.3 Add-in Board Considerations The board is designed to provide 2 A (average) of +5 V current for each add-in board. The total +5 V current draw for add-in boards for a fully loaded board (all three expansion slots and the PCI Express x16 connector filled) must not exceed 8 A. 2.10.4 Power Supply Considerations CAUTION The +5 V standby line from the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to do so can damage the power supply.
Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 2.11 Thermal Considerations CAUTION Failure to ensure appropriate airflow may result in reduced performance of both the processor and/or voltage regulator or, in some instances, damage to the board. For a list of chassis that have been tested with Intel desktop boards please refer to the following website: http://developer.intel.com/design/motherbd/cooling.

Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification Table 35 lists the BIOS Setup program menu features. Table 35.
Overview of BIOS Features 3.3.2 PCI IDE Support If you select Auto in the BIOS Setup program, the BIOS automatically sets up the PCI IDE connector with independent I/O channel support. The IDE interface supports hard drives up to ATA-66/100/133 and recognizes any ATAPI compliant devices, including CD-ROM drives, tape drives, and Ultra DMA drives. The BIOS determines the capabilities of each drive and configures them to optimize capacity and performance.
Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 3.5 Legacy USB Support Legacy USB support enables USB devices to be used even when the operating system’s USB drivers are not yet available. Legacy USB support is used to access the BIOS Setup program, and to install an operating system that supports USB. By default, Legacy USB support is set to Enabled. Legacy USB support operates as follows: 1. When you apply power to the computer, legacy support is disabled. 2. POST begins. 3.
Overview of BIOS Features 3.6.1 Language Support The BIOS Setup program and help messages are supported in US English. Additional languages are available in the Integrator’s Toolkit utility. Check the Intel website for details. 3.6.2 Custom Splash Screen During POST, an Intel® splash screen is displayed by default. This splash screen can be augmented with a custom splash screen. The Integrator’s Toolkit that is available from Intel can be used to create a custom splash screen.
Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 3.8 Boot Options In the BIOS Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a diskette drive, hard drives, CD-ROM, or the network. The default setting is for the diskette drive to be the first boot device, the hard drive second, and the ATAPI CD-ROM third. The fourth device is disabled. 3.8.1 CD-ROM Boot Booting from CD-ROM is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable CD-ROM format specification.
Overview of BIOS Features 3.9 Adjusting Boot Speed These factors affect system boot speed: • • Selecting and configuring peripherals properly Optimized BIOS boot parameters 3.9.1 Peripheral Selection and Configuration The following techniques help improve system boot speed: • • • • Choose a hard drive with parameters such as “power-up to data ready” less than eight seconds, that minimize hard drive startup delays. Select a CD-ROM drive with a fast initialization rate.
Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 3.10 BIOS Security Features The BIOS includes security features that restrict access to the BIOS Setup program and who can boot the computer. A supervisor password and a user password can be set for the BIOS Setup program and for booting the computer, with the following restrictions: • • • • • • • The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all the Setup options in the BIOS Setup program. This is the supervisor mode.

Intel Desktop Board DG965SS Technical Product Specification 4.4 Port 80h POST Codes During the POST, the BIOS generates diagnostic progress codes (POST-codes) to I/O port 80h. If the POST fails, execution stops and the last POST code generated is left at port 80h. This code is useful for determining the point where an error occurred. Displaying the POST-codes requires a PCI bus add-in card, often called a POST card.
