System Memory
The board has two DIMM sockets and supports the following memory features:
•
•
2.6 V (only) 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
Unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following restriction:
Double-sided DIMMS with x16 organization are not supported.
•
•
•
•
•
2 GB maximum total system memory.
Minimum total system memory: 64 MB
Non-ECC DIMMs
Serial Presence Detect
DDR400, DDR333, and DDR266 SDRAM DIMMs
Table 3 lists the supported system bus frequency and memory speed combinations.
Table 3. Supported System Bus Frequency and Memory Speed Combinations
To use this type of DIMM…
The processor's system bus frequency must be…
DDR400
800 MHz
DDR333 (Note)
800 or 533 MHz
DDR266
800, 533, or 400 MHz
Note: When using an 800 MHz system bus frequency processor, DDR333 memory is clocked at 320 MHz.
This minimizes system latencies to optimize system throughput.
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board
should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data
structure. This enables the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to
accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory
is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but
performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the
determined frequency.

Memory Configurations
The Intel 82865G GMCH component provides two features for enhancing memory
throughput:
•
•
Dual Channel memory interface. The board has two memory channels, each with a
single DIMM socket, as shown in Figure 3
Dynamic Addressing Mode. Dynamic mode minimizes overhead by reducing
memory accesses

Product Description
1.5.1.3
Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT)
DVMT enables enhanced graphics and memory performance through Direct AGP, and
highly efficient memory utilization. DVMT ensures the most efficient use of available
system memory for maximum 2-D/3-D graphics performance. Up to 64 MB of system
memory can be allocated to DVMT on systems that have 256 MB or more of total
system memory installed. Up to 32 MB can be allocated to DVMT on systems that have
128 MB but less than 256 MB of total installed system memory. Up to 8 MB can be
allocated to DVMT when less than 128 MB of system memory is installed. DVMT
returns system memory back to the operating system when the additional system
memory is no longer required by the graphics subsystem.
DVMT will always use a minimal fixed portion of system physical memory (as set in the
BIOS Setup program) for compatibility with legacy applications. An example of this
would be when using VGA graphics under DOS. Once loaded, the operating system
and graphics drivers allocate additional system memory to the graphics buffer as
needed for performing graphics functions.
NOTE
The use of DVMT requires operating system driver support.
1.5.1.4
Zone Rendering Technology (ZRT)
The Intel Extreme Graphics 2 Controller supports Zone Rendering Technology (ZRT).
ZRT is a process by which the screen is divided into several zones. Each zone is
completely cached and rendered on chip before being written to the frame buffer. The
benefits of ZRT include the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Increased memory efficiency via better localization of data
Increased on-chip processing speed due to decreased wait time for data
Increased effective pixel fill rates
Increased headroom for larger resolution and color depth
Reduced power as a result of decreased memory bandwidth
Reduction in depth and color bandwidth associated with conventional rendering
1.5.1.5
Rapid Pixel and Text Rendering (RPTR)
The Rapid Pixel and Text Rendering Engine (RPTR) architecture utilizes special pipelines
that allow 2D and 3D operations to overlap. By providing 8X compression, the RPTR
engine reduces the memory bandwidth required to read texture memory, and reduces
the amount of memory required for texture storage.
A dedicated, non-blocking, multi-tier cache is provided for textures, colors, Z and
vertex rendering. With single-pass, quad texture support, the drivers can submit up to
four textures that pass to the graphics engine concurrently. The graphics core can
switch between 2D and 3D operations without having to complete all operations of the
same mode, which minimizes the overhead time required in switching between modes.
27
Intel Desktop Board D865GSA Technical Product Specification
A 2D Block Level Transfer (BLT) in the RPTR engine is extended to 256-bit, which
supports fast blitter fill rate. This enables the blitter sequence of the same addresses
to access the cache and offloads the memory bandwidth required to support blitter fill
rate. Then the cache is emptied automatically when the sequence of operations are
complete.
1.5.1.6
Intelligent Memory Management (IMM)
Intelligent Memory Management (IMM) technology is Intel’s unique UMA memory
manager architecture, consisting of these key elements:
•
•
•
Tiled memory addressing capability
Deep display buffer implementation
Dynamic data management scheme
The memory addressing allows address remapping in the hardware for all graphics
surfaces including textures, frame buffer, Z buffer, and video surfaces. Deep display
buffers and dedicated screen refreshes improve visual performance, while the dynamic
data management scheme manages burst size and page closing policies for memory
accesses.
IMM reduces the aggregate processor latency and allows longer in-page bursts for
higher system performance. IMM also increases page coherency and improves
memory efficiency in texture loads, 2D blitters, color/Z, MPEG2 motion compression,
and other operations.
1.5.1.7
Video Mixing Renderer (VMR)
The Intel Extreme Graphics 2 controller features VMR technology. VMR is a process
where various data types can be blended together before being displayed. VMR allows
applications to bend and twist images such as 3D textures so that special effects such
as wipes, spins, and fades can be achieved.
1.5.1.8
PC/VCR Time Shifted Viewing
PC/VCR requires a TV-tuner add-in card and a third party application. PC/VCR time
shifted viewing allows the user to view and digitally record video pictures on their PC.
Users can view stored images while recording and by using time-shifted viewing they
can pause, resume, replay, and catch up to real time. The Intel Pentium 4 processor in
combination with the Intel 82865G GMCH optimizes performance so that the video
output is smooth without leaving any visual artifacts. Video tearing and corruption is
prevented by the use of multiple buffers within the Intel Extreme Graphics 2 controller.
1.5.1.9
Bi-cubic Filtering
Bi-cubic filtering is a new 4X4 filter that allows images to be generated more smoothly
in the 3D pipeline. The bi-cubic filter can be used to improve image quality for all 3D
texture engine components.

Product Description
1.5.1.10
AGP Digital Display (ADD) Card Support
The GMCH routes two 12-bit multiplexed DVO ports that are each capable of driving a
165 MHz pixel clock to the AGP connector. The DVO ports can be paired for dual
channel mode. In dual channel mode, the GMCH is capable of driving a 24-bit 330 MHz
pixel clock. When an AGP add-in card is used, the Intel Extreme Graphics 2 controller
is disabled and the AGP connector operates in AGP mode. When an ADD card is
detected, the Intel Extreme Graphics 2 controller is enabled and the AGP connector is
configured for DVO mode. DVO mode enables the DVO ports to be accessed by an
ADD card. ADD cards can support up to two display devices with the following
configurations:
•
•
•
•
#
TV-Out
Transition Minimized Differential Signaling (TMDS)
Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS)
Single device operating in dual channel mode
INTEGRATOR’S NOTES
•
•
•
1.5.2
Synchronous display is not supported when one of the display devices is a TV.
Synchronous display with two digital displays is not supported.
Digital Visual Interface (DVI) support is present only when an ADD card is installed.
Universal 0.8 V / 1.5 V AGP 3.0 Connector
The AGP connector supports the following:
•
•
•
4x, 8x AGP 3.0 add-in cards with 0.8 V I/O
1x, 4x AGP 2.0 add-in cards with 1.5 V I/O
AGP Digital Display (ADD) cards
AGP is a high-performance interface for graphics-intensive applications, such as 3D
applications. While based on the PCI Local Bus Specification, Rev. 2.2, AGP is
independent of the PCI bus and is intended for exclusive use with graphical display
devices. AGP overcomes certain limitations of the PCI bus related to handling large
amounts of graphics data with the following features:
•
•
#
Pipelined memory read and write operations that hide memory access latency
Demultiplexing of address and data on the bus for nearly 100 percent efficiency
INTEGRATOR’S NOTES
•
•
•
AGP 2x operation is not supported.
Install memory in the DIMM sockets prior to installing the AGP video card to avoid
interference with the memory retention mechanism.
The AGP connector is keyed for Universal 0.8 V AGP 3.0 cards or 1.5 V AGP 2.0
cards only. Do not attempt to install a legacy 3.3 V AGP card. The AGP connector
is not mechanically compatible with legacy 3.3 V AGP cards.

USB
The board supports up to eight USB 2.0 ports, supports UHCI and EHCI, and uses
UHCI- and EHCI-compatible drivers.
The ICH5 provides the USB controller for all ports. The port arrangement is as follows:
•
•
Four ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors, adjacent to the
audio connectors
Four ports are routed to two separate front panel USB connectors
NOTE
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not meet
FCC Class B requirements, even if no device is attached to the cable. Use shielded
cable that meets the requirements for full-speed devices.

IDE Support
The board provides four IDE interface connectors:
•
•
Two Parallel ATA IDE connectors, which support a total of four devices (two per
connector)
Two Serial ATA IDE connectors, which support one device per connector
1.5.4.1
Parallel ATA IDE Interfaces
The ICH5’s Parallel ATA IDE controller has two independent bus-mastering Parallel ATA
IDE interfaces that can be independently enabled. The Parallel ATA IDE interfaces
support the following modes:
•
•
•
•
•
Programmed I/O (PIO): processor controls data transfer.
8237-style DMA: DMA offloads the processor, supporting transfer rates of up to
16 MB/sec.
Ultra DMA: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and
transfer rates of up to 33 MB/sec.
ATA-66: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and
transfer rates of up to 66 MB/sec. ATA-66 protocol is similar to Ultra DMA and is
device driver compatible.
ATA-100: DMA protocol on IDE bus allows host and target throttling. The ICH5’s
ATA-100 logic can achieve read transfer rates up to 100 MB/sec and write transfer
rates up to 88 MB/sec.
NOTE
ATA-66 and ATA-100 are faster timings and require a specialized cable to reduce
reflections, noise, and inductive coupling.
30
Product Description
The Parallel ATA IDE interfaces also support ATAPI devices (such as CD-ROM drives)
and ATA devices. The BIOS supports Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and Extended
Cylinder Head Sector (ECHS) translation modes. The drive reports the transfer rate
and translation mode to the BIOS.
For information about
Refer to
The location of the Parallel ATA IDE connectors
Figure 11, page 54
1.5.4.2
Serial ATA Interfaces
The ICH5’s Serial ATA controller offers two independent Serial ATA ports with a
theoretical maximum transfer rate of 150 MB/s per port. One device can be installed
on each port for a maximum of two Serial ATA devices. A point-to-point interface is
used for host to device connections, unlike Parallel ATA IDE which supports a
master/slave configuration and two devices per channel.
For compatibility, the underlying Serial ATA functionality is transparent to the operating
system. The Serial ATA controller can operate in both legacy and native modes. In
legacy mode, standard IDE I/O and IRQ resources are assigned (IRQ 14 and 15). In
Native mode, standard PCI resource steering is used. Native mode is the preferred
mode for configurations using the Windows* XP and Windows 2000 operating systems.
NOTE
Many Serial ATA drives use new low-voltage power connectors and require adaptors or
power supplies equipped with low-voltage power connectors.

Real-Time Clock, CMOS SRAM, and Battery
A coin-cell battery (CR2032) powers the real-time clock and CMOS memory. When the
computer is not plugged into a wall socket, the battery has an estimated life of three
years. When the computer is plugged in, the standby current from the power supply
extends the life of the battery. The clock is accurate to ± 13 minutes/year at 25 ºC
with 3.3 VSB applied.

Product Description
1.10.2.3
LAN Wake Capabilities
CAUTION
For LAN wake capabilities, the +5 V standby line for 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. Upon detecting a Magic Packet* frame, the LAN subsystem
asserts a wake-up signal that powers up the computer. Depending on the LAN
implementation, the board supports LAN wake capabilities with ACPI in the following
ways:
•
•
The PCI bus PME# signal for PCI 2.3 compliant LAN designs
The onboard LAN subsystem
1.10.2.4
Instantly Available PC Technology
CAUTION
For Instantly Available PC technology, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must
be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate
standby current when implementing Instantly Available PC technology can damage the
power supply.
Instantly Available PC technology enables the board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-toRAM) sleep-state. While in the S3 sleep-state, the computer will appear to be off (the
power supply is off, and the front panel LED is amber if dual colored, or off if single
colored.) When signaled by a wake-up device or event, the system quickly returns to
its last known wake state. Table 14 on page 43 lists the devices and events that can
wake the computer from the S3 state.
The board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification. Add-in
boards that also support this specification can participate in power management and
can be used to wake the computer.
The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and
PCI 2.3 compliant add-in cards and drivers.
1.10.2.5
Resume on Ring
The operation of Resume on Ring can be summarized as follows:
•
•
•
Resumes operation from ACPI S1 or S3 states
Detects incoming call similarly for external and internal modems
Requires modem interrupt be unmasked for correct operation
1.10.2.6
Wake from USB
USB bus activity wakes the computer from ACPI S1 or S3 states.
45
Intel Desktop Board D865GSA Technical Product Specification
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 S1 or 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
S1, S3, S4, or S5 state (with Wake on PME enabled in BIOS)
1.10.2.9
+5 V Standby Power Indicator LED
The +5 V standby power indicator LED shows that power is still present even when the
computer appears to be off. Figure 9 shows the location of the standby power
indicator LED.
CAUTION
If 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. Failure to do so could damage the board and any attached devices.

PCI Interrupt Routing Map
This section describes interrupt sharing and how the interrupt signals are connected
between the PCI bus connectors and onboard PCI devices. The PCI specification
specifies how interrupts can be shared between devices attached to the PCI bus. In
most cases, the small amount of latency added by interrupt sharing does not affect the
operation or throughput of the devices. In some special cases where maximum
performance is needed from a device, a PCI device should not share an interrupt with
other PCI devices. Use the following information to avoid sharing an interrupt with a
PCI add-in card.
PCI devices are categorized as follows to specify their interrupt grouping:
•
•
•
INTA: By default, all add-in cards that require only one interrupt are in this
category. For almost all cards that require more than one interrupt, the first
interrupt on the card is also classified as INTA.
INTB: Generally, the second interrupt on add-in cards that require two or more
interrupts is classified as INTB. (This is not an absolute requirement.)
INTC and INTD: Generally, a third interrupt on add-in cards is classified as INTC
and a fourth interrupt is classified as INTD.
The ICH5 has eight Programmable Interrupt Request (PIRQ) input signals. All PCI
interrupt sources either onboard or from a PCI add-in card connect to one of these
PIRQ signals. Some PCI interrupt sources are electrically tied together on the board
and therefore share the same interrupt. Table 20 shows an example of how the
PIRQ signals are routed.
For example, using Table 20 as a reference, assume an add-in card using INTA is
plugged into PCI bus connector 3. In PCI bus connector 3, INTA is connected to
PIRQB, which is already connected to the ICH5 audio controller. The add-in card in PCI
bus connector 3 now shares an interrupt with the onboard interrupt source.

NOTE
In PIC mode, the ICH5 can connect each PIRQ line internally to one of the IRQ signals
(3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15). Typically, a device that does not share a
PIRQ line will have a unique interrupt. However, in certain interrupt-constrained
situations, it is possible for two or more of the PIRQ lines to be connected to the same
IRQ signal. Refer to Table 18 for the allocation of PIRQ lines to IRQ signals in APIC
mode.
PCI interrupt assignments to USB ports and Serial ATA ports are dynamic.
2.7
Connectors
CAUTION
Only the following connectors have overcurrent protection: Back panel and front panel
USB, PS/2, and VGA.
The other internal connectors are not overcurrent protected and should connect only to
devices inside the computer’s chassis, such as fans and internal peripherals. Do not
use these connectors to power devices external to the computer’s chassis. A fault in
the load presented by the external devices could cause damage to the computer, the
power cable, and the external devices themselves.
This section describes the board’s connectors. The connectors can be divided into
these groups:
•

Power Supply Connectors
The board has the following power supply connectors:
•
•
Main power – a 2 x 12 connector. This connector is compatible with 2 x 10
connectors previously used on Intel Desktop boards. The board supports the use of
ATX12V power supplies with either 2 x 10 or 2 x 12 main power cables. When
using a power supply with a 2 x 10 main power cable, attach that cable on the
rightmost pins of the main power connector, leaving pins 11, 12, 23, and 24
unconnected.
ATX12V power – a 2 x 2 connector. This connector provides power directly to the
processor voltage regulator and must always be used. Failure to do so will prevent
the board from booting.

Add-in Card Connectors
The board has the following add-in card connectors:
•
One Universal 0.8 V / 1.5 V AGP 3.0 connector supporting 1x, 4x, and 8x AGP cards
•
Three PCI Conventional (rev 2.3 compliant) bus add-in card connectors. The
SMBus is routed to PCI Conventional bus connector 2 only (ATX expansion slot 6).
PCI Conventional bus add-in cards with SMBus support can access sensor data and
other information residing on the board.
Note the following considerations for the PCI Conventional bus connectors:
•
•
All of the PCI Conventional bus connectors are bus master capable.
SMBus signals are routed to PCI Conventional bus connector 2. This enables PCI
Conventional bus add-in boards with SMBus support to access sensor data on the
boards. The specific SMBus signals are as follows:
⎯ The SMBus clock line is connected to pin A40.
⎯ The SMBus data line is connected to pin A41.

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 16 shows the I/O shield. In order to provide the required
dimensions, the figure shows only the metal shield; the plastic face plate is not shown.
Dimensions are given in 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.

2.10 Electrical Considerations
2.10.1
DC Loading
Table 34 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. Maximum values assume a load placed on the
board that is similar to a heavy gaming environment with a 500 mA current draw per
USB port. These calculations are not based on specific processor values or memory
configurations but are based on the minimum and maximum current draw possible
from the board’s power delivery subsystems to the processor, memory, and USB ports.
Use the datasheets for add-in cards, such as PCI, to determine the overall system
power requirements. The selection of a power supply at the system level is dependent
on the system’s usage model and not necessarily tied to a particular processor speed.

Fan Connector Current Capability
CAUTION
The processor fan must be connected to the processor fan connector, not to a chassis
fan connector. Connecting the processor fan to a chassis fan connector may result in
onboard component damage that will halt fan operation.
Table 35 lists the current capability of the fan connectors.

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 AGP connector filled) must not exceed 8 A.
64
Technical Reference
2.10.4
Power Supply Considerations
CAUTION
The +5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate
+5 V standby current. Failure to do so can damage the power supply. The total
amount of standby current required depends on the wake devices supported and
manufacturing options.
System integrators should refer to the power usage values listed in Table 34 when
selecting a power supply for use with the board.
Additional power required will depend on configurations chosen by the integrator.
The power supply must comply with the indicated sections of the ATX form factor
specification.
• The potential relation between 3.3 VDC and +5 VDC power rails
• The current capability of the +5 VSB line
• All timing parameters
• All voltage tolerances
65
Intel Desktop Board D865GSA Technical Product Specification
2.11 Thermal Considerations
CAUTION
A chassis with a maximum internal ambient temperature of 38 oC at the processor fan
inlet is a requirement. Use a processor heatsink that provides omni-directional airflow
(similar to the type shown in Figure 17) to maintain required airflow across the
processor voltage regulator area.
OM16996
Figure 17. Processor Heatsink for Omni-directional Airflow
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.htm
All responsibility for determining the adequacy of any thermal or system design
remains solely with the reader. Intel makes no warranties or representations that
merely following the instructions presented in this document will result in a system
with adequate thermal performance.
CAUTION
Ensure that the ambient temperature does not exceed the board’s maximum operating
temperature. Failure to do so could cause components to exceed their maximum case
temperature and malfunction. For information about the maximum operating
temperature, see the environmental specifications in Section 2.13.
66
Technical Reference
CAUTION
Ensure that proper airflow is maintained in the processor voltage regulator circuit.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the voltage regulator circuit. The processor
voltage regulator area (item A in Figure 18) can reach a temperature of up to 85 oC in
an open chassis.

2.12 Reliability
The Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) prediction is calculated using component and
subassembly random failure rates. The calculation is based on the Bellcore Reliability
Prediction Procedure, TR-NWT-000332, Issue 4, September 1991. The MTBF prediction
is used to estimate repair rates and spare parts requirements.
The MTBF data is calculated from predicted data at 55 ºC. The Desktop Board
D865GSA MTBF is 62454.70 hours.

Introduction
The board uses an Intel/AMI BIOS that is stored in the Firmware Hub (FWH) and can
be updated using a disk-based program. The FWH contains the BIOS Setup program,
POST, the PCI auto-configuration utility, and Plug and Play support.
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision
code. The initial production BIOSs are identified as SA86510A.86A.
When the BIOS Setup configuration jumper is set to configure mode and the computer
is powered-up, the BIOS compares the CPU version and the microcode version in the
BIOS and reports if the two match.
The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the
computer. The BIOS Setup program is accessed by pressing the <F2> key after the
Power-On Self-Test (POST) memory test begins and before the operating system boot
begins. The menu bar is shown below.

BIOS Flash Memory Organization
The Firmware Hub (FWH) includes a 4 Mbit (512 KB) symmetrical flash memory device.
3.3
3.3.1
Resource Configuration
PCI Autoconfiguration
The BIOS can automatically configure PCI devices. PCI devices may be onboard or
add-in cards. Autoconfiguration lets a user insert or remove PCI cards without having
to configure the system. When a user turns on the system after adding a PCI card, the
BIOS automatically configures interrupts, the I/O space, and other system resources.
Any interrupts set to Available in Setup are considered to be available for use by the
add-in card.
78
BIOS Setup Program
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 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.
To take advantage of the high capacities typically available today, hard drives are
automatically configured for Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and to PIO Mode 3 or 4,
depending on the capability of the drive. You can override the auto-configuration
options by specifying manual configuration in the BIOS Setup program.
To use ATA-66/100 features the following items are required:
•
•
•
An ATA-66/100 peripheral device
An ATA-66/100 compatible cable
ATA-66/100 operating system device drivers
NOTE
Do not connect an ATA device as a slave on the same IDE cable as an ATAPI master
device. For example, do not connect an ATA hard drive as a slave to an ATAPI
CD-ROM drive.
3.4
System Management BIOS (SMBIOS)
SMBIOS is a Desktop Management Interface (DMI) compliant method for managing
computers in a managed network.
The main component of SMBIOS is the Management Information Format (MIF)
database, which contains information about the computing system and its components.
Using SMBIOS, a system administrator can obtain the system types, capabilities,
operational status, and installation dates for system components. The MIF database
defines the data and provides the method for accessing this information. The BIOS
enables applications such as third-party management software to use SMBIOS. The
BIOS stores and reports the following SMBIOS information:
•
•
•
•
BIOS data, such as the BIOS revision level
Fixed-system data, such as peripherals, serial numbers, and asset tags
Resource data, such as memory size, cache size, and processor speed
Dynamic data, such as event detection and error logging
Non-Plug and Play operating systems, such as Windows NT*, require an additional
interface for obtaining the SMBIOS information. The BIOS supports an SMBIOS table
interface for such operating systems. Using this support, an SMBIOS service-level
application running on a non-Plug and Play operating system can obtain the SMBIOS
information.
79
Intel Desktop Board D865GSA 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. Legacy USB support is enabled by the BIOS allowing you to use a USB keyboard to
enter and configure the BIOS Setup program and the maintenance menu.
4. POST completes.
5. The operating system loads. While the operating system is loading, USB keyboards
and mice are recognized and may be used to configure the operating system.
(Keyboards and mice are not recognized during this period if Legacy USB support
was set to Disabled in the BIOS Setup program.)
6. After the operating system loads the USB drivers, all legacy and non-legacy USB
devices are recognized by the operating system, and Legacy USB support from the
BIOS is no longer used.
To install an operating system that supports USB, verify that Legacy USB support in
the BIOS Setup program is set to Enabled and follow the operating system’s installation
instructions.
3.6
BIOS Updates
The BIOS can be updated using either of the following utilities, which are available on
the Intel World Wide Web site:
•
•
Intel® Express BIOS Update utility, which enables automated updating while in the
Windows environment. Using this utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a
hard disk, a 1.44 MB diskette, or a CD-ROM, or from the file location on the Web.
Intel® Flash Memory Update Utility, which requires creation of a boot diskette and
manual rebooting of the system. Using this utility, the BIOS can be updated from a

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.
NOTE
If you add a custom splash screen, it will share space with the Intel branded logo.

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.
3.7.1
CD-ROM Boot
Booting from CD-ROM is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable CD-ROM
format specification. Under the Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program, ATAPI CD-ROM
is listed as a boot device. Boot devices are defined in priority order. Accordingly, if
there is not a bootable CD in the CD-ROM drive, the system will attempt to boot from
the next defined drive.
3.7.2
Network Boot
The network can be selected as a boot device. This selection allows booting from the
onboard LAN or a network add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed.
Pressing the <F12> key during POST automatically forces booting from the LAN. To
use this key during POST, the User Access Level in the BIOS Setup program's Security
menu must be set to Full.
81
Intel Desktop Board D865GSA Technical Product Specification
3.7.3
Booting Without Attached Devices
For use in embedded applications, the BIOS has been designed so that after passing
the POST, the operating system loader is invoked even if the following devices are not
present:
•
•
•
Video adapter
Keyboard
Mouse
3.7.4
Changing the Default Boot Device During POST
Pressing the <F10> key during POST causes a boot device menu to be displayed. This
menu displays the list of available boot devices (as set in the BIOS setup program’s
Boot Device Priority Submenu). Table 44 lists the boot device menu options.

Fast Booting Systems with Intel® Rapid BIOS
Boot
These factors affect system boot speed:
•
•
3.8.1
Selecting and configuring peripherals properly
Using an optimized BIOS, such as the Intel® Rapid BIOS
Peripheral Selection and Configuration
The following techniques help improve system boot speed:
•
•
•
•
82
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. This rate can influence POST
execution time.
Eliminate unnecessary add-in adapter features, such as logo displays, screen
repaints, or mode changes in POST. These features may add time to the boot
process.
Try different monitors. Some monitors initialize and communicate with the BIOS
more quickly, which enables the system to boot more quickly.
BIOS Setup Program
3.8.2
Intel Rapid BIOS Boot
Use of the following BIOS Setup program settings reduces the POST execution time.
In the Boot Menu:
•
Set the hard disk drive as the first boot device. As a result, the POST does not first
seek a diskette drive, which saves about one second from the POST execution time.
•
Disable Quiet Boot, which eliminates display of the logo splash screen. This could
save several seconds of painting complex graphic images and changing video
modes.
Enable Intel Rapid BIOS Boot. This feature bypasses memory count and the search
for a diskette drive.
•
In the Peripheral Configuration submenu, disable the LAN device if it will not be used.
This can reduce up to four seconds of option ROM boot time.
NOTE
It is possible to optimize the boot process to the point where the system boots so
quickly that the Intel logo screen (or a custom logo splash screen) will not be seen.
Monitors and hard disk drives with minimum initialization times can also contribute to a
boot time that might be so fast that necessary logo screens and POST messages
cannot be seen.
This boot time may be so fast that some drives might be not be initialized at all. If this
condition should occur, it is possible to introduce a programmable delay ranging from
three to 30 seconds (using the Hard Disk Pre-Delay feature of the Advanced Menu in
the Drive Configuration Submenu of the BIOS Setup program).
83
Intel Desktop Board D865GSA Technical Product Specification

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.
The user password gives restricted access to view and change Setup options in the
BIOS Setup program. This is the user mode.
If only the supervisor password is set, pressing the <Enter> key at the password
prompt of the BIOS Setup program allows the user restricted access to Setup.
If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, users can enter either the
supervisor password or the user password to access Setup. Users have access to
Setup respective to which password is entered.
Setting the user password restricts who can boot the computer. The password
prompt will be 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, the user can enter either password to boot the computer.
For enhanced security, use different passwords for the supervisor and user
passwords.
Valid password characters are A-Z, a-z, and 0-9. Passwords may be up to
16 characters in length.
Table 45 shows the effects of setting the supervisor password and user password. This
table is for reference only and is not displayed on the screen.

<CTRL_N> Pressed
CMOS is ignored and NVRAM is cleared. User must enter Setup.
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.
The POST card can decode the port and display the contents on a medium such as a
seven-segment display.
NOTE
The POST card must be installed in PCI bus connector 1.
The tables below offer descriptions of the POST codes generated by the BIOS.
Table 47 defines the uncompressed INIT code checkpoints, Table 48 describes the boot
block recovery code checkpoints, and Table 49 lists the runtime code uncompressed in
F000 shadow RAM. Some codes are repeated in the tables because that code applies
to more than one operation.

BIOS Beep Codes
Whenever a recoverable error occurs during POST, the BIOS displays an error message
describing the problem (see Table 53). 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.
An external ROM module (for example, a video BIOS) can also issue audible errors,
usually consisting of one long tone followed by a series of short tones. For more
information on the beep codes issued, check the documentation for that external
device.
There are several POST routines that issue a POST terminal error and shut down the
system if they fail. Before shutting down the system, the terminal-error handler issues
a beep code signifying the test point error, writes the error to I/O port 80h, attempts
to initialize the video and writes the error in the upper left corner of the screen (using
both monochrome and color adapters).
If POST completes normally, the BIOS issues one short beep before passing control to
the operating system.
