Dimensions ? ATX, 11.5" x 9.5" (292 x 242 mm) Microprocessor The Motherboard supports a single 775-pin Pentium 4 processor of up to 3.8 GHz. In addition, the front side bus speed is automatically selected. The Motherboard currently supports processors that run internally up to 3.8GHz and have a 512Kb/1MB second-level cache running at full CPU Speed. Microprocessor Packaging The Intel Pentium processor connects to the Motherboard through a LGA775 connector.
Chipset Intel’s Lakeport (945G/P) chipset consists of two primary components: the Graphics Memory Controller Hub (GMCH)/Memory Controller Hub (MCH) and the I/O Controller Hub (ICH7). Optimized for the Celeron, Pentium 4, Pentium D processors in an LGA775 Package, the Lakeport (945G/P) provides the performance and feature-set required for high-end UP dual core processor desktop solutions.
Programmed I/O operations usually require a substantial amount of processor bandwidth. However, in multitasking operating systems, the bandwidth freed by bus mastering IDE can be devoted to other tasks while disk transfers are occurring. Real-time Clock, CMOS SRAM, and Battery The clock provides a time-of-day clock and a multi-century calendar with alarm features and century rollover. The time, date, and CMOS values can be specified in the Setup program.
Intel ICH7 System Features The ICH7 provides extensive I/O support to a high-end 945G/P system. Functions and capabilities include: ? PCI Express Base Specification, Rev. 1.0a-compliant ? PCI 2.
Parallel Port The connector for the multimode bidirectional parallel port is a 25-pin D-Sub connector located on the back panel. In the Setup program, the parallel port can be configured for the following: ? ? ? ? Compatible (standard mode). Bidirectional (PS/2 compatible). Extended Parallel Port (EPP). Enhanced Capabilities Port (ECP). Floppy Controller The I/O controller is software compatible with the N82077 floppy drive controllers and supports both PC-AT and PS/2 modes.
Management Extension Component Wake on LAN Header The optional Wake on LAN header enables remote wakeup of the computer through a network. Wake on LAN requires a PCI add-in network interface card (NIC) with remote wakeup capabilities. The remote wakeup header on the NIC must be connected to the onboard Wake on LAN header. The NIC monitors network traffic at the MII interface and when it detects a Magic Packet it asserts a wakeup signal that powers up the computer.
PCI Auto Configuration The PCI auto -configuration utility works in conjunction with the Set-up program to support using PCI add-in boards in the system. When you turn on the system power after installing a PCI board, the BIOS automatically configures interrupts, DMA channels, I/O space, and so on. Since PCI add-in boards use the same interrupt resources as ISA add-in boards, you must specify the interrupts used by ISA boards in the set-up program. The PCI auto-configuration program complies with version 2.
Chapter 2: System Board Options The VIG385P Motherboard is capable of accepting one Intel Pentium 4 CPU. RAM can be upgraded to a maximum of 4GB using DDRII DIMMs non/ECC unbuffered memory. WARNING Unplug the system before carrying out the procedures described in this chapter. Failure to disconnect power before you open the system can result in personal injury or equipment damage.

Chapter 4: System BIOS What is the BIOS? The BIOS (Basic Input Output System) is an important piece of software which is stored in a ROM (Read Only Memory) chip inside the computer. It consists of the basic instructions for controlling the disk drives, hard disk, keyboard and serial/parallel ports. The BIOS also keeps a list of the specifications of the computer in battery-backed RAM (also known as the CMOS RAM) and provides a special Setup program to change this information.
How Data is configured The BIOS provides a Setup utility in ROM that is accessed by pressing at the appropriate time during system boot. Setup configures data in CMOS RAM. BIOS Upgrades A new version of the BIOS can be upgraded from a diskette using the utility that is available from Viglen. This utility does BIOS upgrades as follows: ? ? ? Updates the flash BIOS from a file on a disk. Updates the language section of the BIOS.
configuration information is stored in the extended system configuration data (ESCD) format. PCI IDE Support If Auto is selected as a primary or secondary IDE in Setup, the BIOS automatically sets up the two local-bus IDE connecto rs with independent I/O channel support. The IDE interface supports hard drives up to PIO Mode 4 and recognises any ATAPI devices, including CD-ROM drives, tape drives and Ultra DMA drives. Add-in ISA IDE controllers are not supported.
Boot Options In the Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a floppy drive, hard drive, CD-ROM, or the network. The default setting is for the floppy drive to be the primary boot device and the hard drive to be the secondary boot device. By default the third and fourth devices are disabled. Booting from CD-ROM is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable CD-ROM format specification. Under the Boot menu in the Setup program, CD-ROM is listed as a boot device.
Configuring the Motherboard using BIOS Setup Before You Begin CAUTION! ? Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order. ?

HDD LED The HDD LED connection is located on pins 13 and 14 of JF1. Attach the hard drive LED cable here to display disk activity (for any hard drives on the system, including SCSI, Serial ATA and IDE). See the table below for pin definitions.
Chassis Intrusion A Chassis Intrusion header is located at JL1. Attach the appropriate cable to inform you of a chassis intrusion. Universal Serial Bus (USB0/1) Two USB 2.0 ports are located beside the PS/2 ports. USB0 is the bottom connector and USB1 is the top connector. See the table below for pin definitions. Front Panel Universal Serial Bus Headers Extra USB headers (FPUSB0/FPUSB1/FPUSB2/FPUSB3) can be used for front side USB access. You will need a USB cable to use eithe r connection.
Serial Ports Two serial ports are included on the Motherboard. COM1 (J31) is a port located beside the mouse/keyboard ports and COM2 (J13) is a header located on the Motherboard near PCI-E slot #6. See the table below for pin definitions. Note: Pin 10 is included on the header but not on the port. GLAN (Ethernet Port) A G-bit Ethernet port (designated GLAN) is located beside the COM1 port on the IO backplane. This port accepts RJ45 type cables.
Fan Headers There are three fan headers (Fan1, Fan 2 and Fan3) on the VIG385P. (See the table on the right for pin definitions.) These are 4 -pin fan headers; however, the traditional 3-wire fans are also supported. (Pins#1-#3 of the fan headers are backward compatible with the traditional 3 -pin fans.) When a 3 -wire fan is used, it will be set to run at the full speed by default.
Wake-On-Ring The Wake-On-Ring header is designated JWOR. This function allows your computer to receive and "wake-up" by an incoming call to the modem when in suspend state. See the table on the right for pin definitions. You must have a Wake-On-Ring card and cable to use this feature. Jumper Settings Explanation of Jumpers To modify the operation of the Motherboard, jumpers can be used to choose between optional settings. Jumpers create shorts between two pins to change the function of the connector.
CMOS Clear JBT1 is used to clear CMOS. In-stead of pins, this "jumper" consists of contact pads to prevent the accidental clearing of CMOS. To clear CMOS, use a metal object such as a small screwdriver to touch both pads at the same time to short the connection. Always remove the AC power cord from the system before clearing CMOS. JBT1 is located near the SATA header on the Motherboard.
Keyboard Wake-Up The JPWAKE jumper is used together with the Keyboard Wake-Up setting in BIOS. Enable both to allow the system to be woken up by depressing a key on the keyboard. See the table below for jumper settings. Note: Your power supply must meet ATX specification 2.01 or higher and supply 720mA of standby power to use this feature.
System Bus Speed JP2 & JP3 allows you to select Auto, or Manual speed for your system (front side) bus speed. The recommended Auto setting will automatically determine the system bus speed of your processor(s). See the table below for jumper settings. “Auto” is the recommended setting. Parallel Port, Floppy and Hard Disk Drive Note the following when connecting the floppy and hard disk drive cables: ? The floppy disk drive cable has seven twisted wires.
Floppy Connector The Floppy connector is located on JP7. See the table below for Pin definitions. IDE Connectors There are no jumpers to configure the onboard IDE#1 and #2 connectors (at J2 and J3, respectively). See the table below for pin definitions.

Chapter 6: Glossary BIOS This is software stored on a chip and consists of the instructions necessary for the computer to function. The System BIOS contains the instructions for the keyboard, disk drives etc., and the VGA BIOS controls the VGA graphics card. CPU Central Processing Unit. This is the main piece of equipment on the Motherboard. The CPU processes data, tells memory what to store and the video card what to display.
Interface The electronics providing a connection between two pieces of equipment. For example, a printer inte rface connects a computer to a printer. Interlace The mode the graphics card uses to refresh a monitor screen. When the graphics is in interlace mode, the frequency of the display update is lower than in non-interlace mode. This causes a slight flicker, so generally non-interlaced mode is better if the monitor supports it. L.E.D.
