Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Support  
NOTE  
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port might not  
meet FCC Class B requirements, even if no device or a low-speed USB device is  
attached to the cable. Use a shielded cable that meets the requirements for a  
full-speed USB device.  
The Desktop Board supports up to six USB 2.0 ports (four ports routed to the back  
panel and two ports routed to an onboard USB 2.0 header). The USB 2.0 ports are  
backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices. USB 1.1 devices will function normally at  
USB 1.1 speeds.  
USB 2.0 support requires both an operating system and drivers that fully support  
USB 2.0 transfer rates. Disabling Hi-Speed USB in the BIOS reverts all USB 2.0 ports  
to USB 1.1 operation. This may be required to accommodate operating systems that  
do not support USB 2.0.  
Enhanced IDE Interface  
The IDE interface handles the exchange of information between the processor and  
peripheral devices such as hard disks and optical drives inside the computer. The  
interface supports:

device per channel.  
Expandability  
The Desktop Board supports one PCI add-in card.  
16  
       
Desktop Board Features  
BIOS  
The BIOS provides the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, the PCI  
and IDE auto-configuration utilities, and the video BIOS.  
IDE Auto Configuration  
If you install an IDE device (such as a hard drive) in your computer, the auto-  
configuration utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the device for  
your computer. You do not need to run the BIOS Setup program after installing an  
IDE device. You can override the auto-configuration options by specifying manual  
configuration in the BIOS Setup program.  
PCI Auto Configuration  
If you install a PCI add-in card in your computer, the PCI 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 add-in card.  
Security Passwords  
The BIOS includes security features that restrict whether the BIOS Setup program can  
be accessed and who can boot the computer. A supervisor password and a user  
password can be set for the BIOS Setup and for booting the computer, with the  
following restrictions:  
The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all Setup  
options. If only the supervisor password is set, pressing <Enter> at the password  
prompt of Setup gives the user restricted access to Setup.  
If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, you must enter either the  
supervisor password or the user password to access Setup. Setup options are then  
available for viewing and changing depending on whether the supervisor or user  
password was entered.  
Setting a user password restricts who can boot the computer. The password  
prompt is 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, you can enter either password to boot the computer.  
For instructions on resetting the password, see Clearing Passwords on page 35.

+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. Failure to do so could damage the board and any attached devices.  
The Desktop Board’s standby power indicator, shown in Figure 4, is lit when there is  
standby power to the system. This includes the DIMM socket and the PCI bus  
connector, even though the computer appears to be off.  
Figure 4. Location of the Standby Power Indicator  
For more information on standby current requirements for the Desktop Board, refer to  
the Technical Product Specification on the D945GCLF web page at:  
19  
   
Intel Desktop Board D945GCLF Product Guide  
LAN Wake Capabilities  
CAUTION  
For LAN wake capabilities, the 5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable  
of delivering adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby  
current when using this feature can damage the power supply.  
LAN wakeup capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network.  
The LAN subsystem monitors network traffic and upon detecting a Magic Packet*  
frame, it asserts a wake-up signal that powers up the computer.  
Wake from USB  
NOTE  
Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports wake from USB.  
USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 state.  
Wake from PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse  
PS/2 keyboard/mouse activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 state.  
PME# Wakeup Support  
When the PME# signal on the PCI bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI  
S1 or S5 state.  
Battery  
A battery on the Desktop Board keeps the values in CMOS RAM and the clock current  
when the computer is turned off. Go to page 36 for instructions on how to replace the  
battery.  
Real-Time Clock  
The Desktop Board has a time-of-day clock and 100-year calendar. The battery on the  
Desktop Board keeps the clock current when the computer is turned off.

transfer protocol are attached to the same cable, the maximum transfer rate between  
the drives may be reduced to that of the slowest drive.  
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.  
For correct function of the cable:  
1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 21.  
2. Attach the cable end with the single connector (blue) to the Intel Desktop Board  
3. Attach the cable end with the two closely spaced connectors (gray and black) to

Replacing the 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.  
When the voltage drops below a certain level, the BIOS Setup program settings stored  
in CMOS RAM (for example, the date and time) might not be accurate. Replace the  
battery with an equivalent one. Figure 15 on page 40 shows the location of the  
battery.  
CAUTION  
Risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type. Batteries should be recycled where  
possible. Disposal of used batteries must be in accordance with local environmental regulations.

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 <F2> 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.  
Updating the BIOS with the Intel® Express  
BIOS Update Utility  
With the Intel Express BIOS Update utility you can update the system BIOS while in  
the Windows environment. The BIOS file is included in an automated update utility  
that combines the functionality of the Intel® Flash Memory Update Utility and the ease  
of use of Windows-based installation wizards.  
To update the BIOS with the Intel Express BIOS Update utility:  
2. Navigate to the D945GCLF page, click “[view] Latest BIOS updates,” and select the  
Express BIOS Update utility file.  
3. Download the file to your hard drive. (You can also save this file to a removable  
USB device. This is useful if you are updating the BIOS for multiple identical  
systems.)  
4. Close all other applications. This step is required. Your system will be rebooted at  
the last Express BIOS Update window.  
5. Double-click the executable file from the location on your hard drive where it was  
saved. This runs the update program.  
6. Follow the instructions provided in the dialog boxes to complete the BIOS update.  
Updating the BIOS with the Iflash Memory  
Update Utility  
You can use the information in this section to update the BIOS using the Iflash  
Memory Update Utility.  
Obtaining the BIOS Update File  
You can update to a new version of the BIOS by using the Iflash BIOS update file.  
The Iflash BIOS update file is a compressed file that contains the files you need to  
update the BIOS. The Iflash BIOS update file contains:  
New BIOS file  
Intel Flash Memory Update Utility  
41

With the Iflash Memory update utility you can update the system BIOS from a  
bootable USB flash drive or other bootable USB media. The Iflash BIOS update files  
can be extracted locally to your hard drive and copied to a bootable USB flash drive or  
other bootable USB media.  
The Iflash Memory update utility allows you to:  
Update the BIOS  
Update the language section of the BIOS  
NOTE  
Review the instructions distributed with the update utility before attempting a BIOS  
update.  
CAUTION  
Do not interrupt the process or the system may not function properly.  
1. Uncompress the BIOS update file and copy the .BIO file and IFLASH.EXE to a  
bootable USB flash drive or other bootable USB media.  
2. Configure the BIOS or use the F10 key 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.  
Recovering the BIOS  
It is unlikely that anything will interrupt the BIOS update; however, if an interruption  
occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. For more information about recovering the BIOS

Intel Desktop Board D945GCLF Product Guide  
Lead-free 2LI/Pb-free 2LI Board  
The electronics industry is transitioning to European Union (EU) Restriction of  
Hazardous Substances (RoHS)-compliant products. The RoHS legislation restricts the  
use of six materials. One of these restricted materials is lead. Lead is the most  
common and problematic of the RoHS restricted materials.  
There are exemptions in RoHS that allow the use of lead in some very limited locations  
in electronic products. Maximum lead concentration values have been established for  
RoHS-compliant electronic products that allow up to 1000 ppm of lead.  
Lead-free/Pb-free is a nickname that is often used (or misused) for RoHS-compliant  
products. In this case, the term "Lead-free/Pb-free" means that lead has been  
removed where required by the RoHS legislation but still may exist as an impurity  
below 1000 ppm.  
The term "Lead-free 2LI/Pb-free 2LI" means lead-free second level interconnect (2LI).  
The balls, leads, or pads used to connect the component to a printed circuit board are  
lead-free, but the first level interconnect (FLI) is not lead-free. The use of lead in the  
FLI is acceptable because of the RoHS "flip chip" or "die bump" interconnect  
exemption.  
Desktop Board D945GCLF is a lead-free second level interconnect product. Table 12  
shows the lead-free second level interconnect marks as they appear on the board and  
accompanying collateral. These marks are based on JEDEC standard J-STD-609,  
“Marking and Labeling of Components, PCBs and PCBAs to Identify Lead, Lead Free  
and Other Attributes.”  
For more information concerning Intel’s lead-free initiatives, refer to  
Table 12.Lead-Free Second Level Interconnect Marks  
Description  
Mark  
This symbol is used to identify  
electrical and electronic  
assemblies and components in  
which the Pb concentration  
level in the Desktop Board  
substrate and the solder  
connections from the board to  
the components (second-level  
interconnect) is not greater  
than 0.1% by weight  
or  
or  
(1000 ppm).

Regulatory Compliance  
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)  
European Union RoHS  
EU RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC restricts the use of the following six materials in  
various types of electronic and electrical equipment:  
Lead  
Mercury  
Cadmium  
Hexavalent chromium  
Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB)  
Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE)  
The maximum concentrations allowed are 0.1% or 1000 ppm (except for cadmium,  
which is limited to 0.01% or 100 ppm) by weight of homogeneous material.  
Desktop Board D945GCLF complies with these restrictions.  
China RoHS  
“China RoHS” is the term used by industry generally to describe legislation  
implemented by the Ministry of Information Industry (MII) in the People's Republic of  
China for the control of pollution by electronic information products (EIP). The official  
title of the China RoHS regulation is “Management Methods for Controlling Pollution by  
Electronic Information Products.”  
China RoHS bans the same substances and has the same limits as EU RoHS.  
However, the China RoHS regulation requires specific product marking and a self-  
declaration of the controlled substances contained in each product.  
Desktop Board D945GCLF is a China RoHS-compliant product.  
The required China RoHS mark indicates the product’s Environmental Friendly Usage  
Period (EFUP). The EFUP is defined as the number of years for which listed controlled  
substances will not leak or chemically deteriorate while in the product. The EFUP for  
Intel Desktop Boards has been determined to be 10 years.  
The EFUP for Desktop Board D945GCLF is shown in Table 13.

This is an example of the  
symbol used on Intel Desktop  
Boards and associated  
collateral. The color of the  
mark may vary depending  
upon the application. The

Desktop Boards has been  
determined to be 10 years.

Intel Desktop Board D945GCLF Product Guide  
The China MII also stipulates that a material Self Declaration Table (SDT) must be  
included in a product’s user documentation. The SDT for Desktop Board D945GCLF is  
shown in Figure 16.
