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 eight USB 2.0 ports via ICH7R; four ports routed to the back  
panel and four routed to two internal USB 2.0 headers. 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 ICH7R’s IDE interface handles the exchange of information between the processor and  
peripheral devices like hard disks, CD-ROM drives, and Iomega Zip* drives inside the computer.  
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  
Laser Servo (LS-120) drives  
Serial ATA  
The desktop board supports four Serial ATA channels via ICH7R, connecting one device per  
channel. Desktop boards with ICH7R support Intel Matrix Storage Technology (NCQ, Hot Plug,  
RAID 0, 1, 10, 5, and Matrix RAID).

Intel Desktop Board D945PVS Product Guide  
Expandability  
The desktop board supports the following:  
One PCI Express x16 add-in card  
Two PCI Express x1 add-in card  
Four PCI add-in cards  
Related Links:  
For information about installing the PCI Express x16 card, see page 36 in Chapter 2.  
BIOS  
The BIOS provides the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, the PCI/PCI  
Express and IDE auto-configuration utilities, and the video BIOS. The BIOS is stored in the  
Firmware Hub.  
The BIOS can be entered by pressing the <F2> key at startup. The BIOS can be updated by  
following the instructions on page 55 in Chapter 3.  
Serial ATA and IDE Auto Configuration  
If you install a Serial ATA or 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 a Serial ATA or IDE device. You  
can override the auto-configuration options by specifying manual configuration in the BIOS Setup  
program.  
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.  
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.

Chassis Intrusion  
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 20 on page 39 for the location of the chassis  
intrusion header.  
Power Management Features  
Power management is implemented at several levels, including:  
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)  
Hardware support:  
Power connectors  
Fan connectors  
Suspend to RAM (Instantly Available PC technology)  
Wake from USB  
Wake from PS/2 keyboard/mouse  
PME# wakeup support  
ACPI  
ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug and Play  
functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with the desktop board requires an operating system that  
provides full ACPI support.  
Power Connectors  
The desktop board has three power connectors. See Figure 24 on page 45 for the location of the  
power connectors.  
Fan Connectors  
The desktop board has a 4-pin processor fan header and two 3-pin chassis fan headers. See  
Figure 23 on page 44 for the location of the fan headers.  
Fan Speed Control (Intel® Precision Cooling Technology)  
Intel Precision Cooling Technology automatically adjusts the processor fan speed based on the  
processor thermal diode temperature and adjusts the chassis fan speeds depending on the system  
temperature. System fan noise may be reduced by operating controlled chassis and processor fans  
at the minimum necessary speeds.  
The processor and chassis fan speed control features can be disabled independently through the  
desktop board BIOS. Disabling the processor fan speed control will result in the fan operating at  
full speed if it is not a self controlled fan. It is recommended that processor fan speed control  
remain enabled (default BIOS setting) when using the processor fan heat-sink included with Intel®  
boxed processors. Disabling the chassis fan speed control results in chassis fans always operating

Intel Desktop Board D945PVS Product Guide  
at full speed. The chassis fan speed control feature should be disabled if a self-controlled chassis  
fan is attached to any controlled chassis fan header.  
The overall system noise reduction will vary based on system configuration and environment.  
Suspend to RAM (Instantly Available PC Technology)  
CAUTIONS  
For Instantly Available PC technology, 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 and/or affect ACPI S3 sleep state functionality.  
Power supplies used with this desktop board must be able to provide enough standby current to  
support the standard Instantly Available (ACPI S3 sleep state) configuration. If the standby  
current necessary to support multiple wake events from the PCI and/or USB buses exceeds power  
supply capacity, the desktop board may lose register settings stored in memory.  
Instantly Available PC technology enables the board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-to-RAM) sleep  
state. While in the S3 sleep state, the computer will appear to be off. When signaled by a wake-up  
device or event, the system quickly returns to its last known awake state.  
The desktop board’s standby power indicator, shown in Figure 3, is lit when there is standby power  
to the system. This includes the memory modules and PCI bus connectors, even when the  
computer appears to be off.  
If the system has a dual-colored power LED on the front panel, the sleep state is indicated by the  
LED turning amber.

BIOS  
Recovering the BIOS  
It is unlikely that anything will interrupt the BIOS update; however, if an interruption occurs, the  
BIOS could be damaged. The following steps explain how to recover the BIOS if an update fails.  
The following procedure uses recovery mode for the Setup program. See page 47 for more  
information on Setup modes.  
NOTE  
Because of the small amount of code available in the boot block area, there is no video support.  
You will not see anything on the screen during this procedure. Monitor the procedure by listening  
to the speaker and looking at the diskette drive LED.  
1. Turn off the computer, disconnect the computer’s power cord, and disconnect all external  
peripherals.  
2. Remove the computer cover and locate the configuration jumper block (see Figure 26).  
3. Remove the jumper from all pins as shown below to set recovery mode for Setup.  
3
1
4. Insert the bootable BIOS update diskette into diskette drive A.  
5. Replace the computer cover, connect the power cord, turn on the computer, and allow it to  
boot. The recovery process will take a few minutes.  
6. Listen to the speaker:  
Upon applying power, drive A will begin to show activity. In about a minute, two beeps  
are heard and drive A activity ceases (temporarily) indicating the successful recovery of the  
BIOS core. Drive A activity will begin again followed by two more beeps indicating the  
successful recovery of the boot block. This sequence of events indicates a successful BIOS  
recovery.  
A series of continuous beeps indicates a failed BIOS recovery.  
7. If recovery fails, return to step 1 and repeat the recovery process.  
8. If recovery is successful, turn off the computer, and disconnect its power cord.  
9. Remove the computer cover and continue with the following steps.  
10. On the jumper block, reinstall the jumper back on pins 1-2 as shown below to set normal mode  
for Setup.
