Product Description
1.7 System Memory
NOTE
✏
Remove the AGP video card before installing or upgrading memory to avoid interference with the
memory retention mechanism.
NOTE
✏
The D845BG/D845PT boards have been designed to support DIMMs based on 512 Mbit
technology for a maximum onboard capacity of up to 2 GB, but this technology has not been
validated on this board. Please refer to the following Intel web sites for the latest lists of tested
memory.
For the D845BG board:
http://developer.intel.com/design/motherbd/bg/bg_mem.htm
For the D845PT board:
http://developer.intel.com/design/motherbd/pt/pt_mem.htm
The D845BG and D845PT boards both have two DIMM sockets and support the following
memory features:
• 2.5 V (only) 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
• Unbuffered single-sided or double-sided DIMMs

✏
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 allows
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.
NOTE
✏
For ECC functionality, all installed DIMMs must be ECC. If both ECC and non-ECC DIMMs are
used, ECC will not function.

Product Description
1.8.3 IDE Support
1.8.3.1 IDE Interfaces
The ICH2’s IDE controller has two independent bus-mastering IDE interfaces that can be
independently enabled. The 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 ICH2’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.
The IDE interfaces also support ATAPI devices (such as CD-ROM drives) and ATA devices using
the transfer modes listed in Section 4.4.4.1 on page 109.
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.
The D845BG and D845PT boards support Laser Servo (LS-120) diskette technology through the
IDE interfaces. An LS-120 drive can be configured as a boot device by setting the BIOS Setup
program’s Boot menu to one of the following:
• ARMD-FDD (ATAPI removable media device – floppy disk drive)
• ARMD-HDD (ATAPI removable media device – hard disk drive)

Intel Desktop Board D845BG/D845PT Technical Product Specification
1.8.4 Real-Time Clock, CMOS SRAM, and Battery
The real-time clock provides a time-of-day clock and a multicentury calendar with alarm features.
The real-time clock supports 256 bytes of battery-backed CMOS SRAM in two banks that are
reserved for BIOS use.
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.
The time, date, and CMOS values can be specified in the BIOS Setup program. The CMOS values
can be returned to their defaults by using the BIOS Setup program.

1.14.1.1 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. The operating system uses information from applications and user settings to put the
system as a whole into a low-power state.
Table 9 lists the power states supported by the D845BG and D845PT boards along with the
associated system power targets. See the ACPI specification for a complete description of the
various system and power states.

1.14.2 Hardware Support
CAUTION
Ensure that the power supply provides adequate +5 V standby current if LAN wake capabilities
and Instantly Available PC technology features are used. 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. Refer to Section 2.11.3 on page 83 for additional information.
The D845BG and D845PT boards provide several power management hardware features,
including:
• Power connector
• Fan connectors
• LAN wake capabilities
• Instantly Available PC technology
• Resume on Ring
• Wake from USB
• Wake from PS/2 keyboard
• PME# wake-up support
LAN wake capabilities and Instantly Available PC technology require power from the +5 V
standby line. The sections discussing these features describe the incremental standby power
requirements for each.
Resume on Ring enables telephony devices to access the computer when it is in a power-managed
state. The method used depends on the type of telephony device (external or internal).
NOTE
✏
The use of Resume on Ring and Wake from USB technologies from an ACPI state requires an
operating system that provides full ACPI support.
1.14.2.1 Power Connector
When used with an ATX12V- or SFX12V-compliant power supply that supports remote power
on/off, the D845BG and D845PT boards can turn off the system power through software control.
When the system BIOS receives the correct command from the operating system, the BIOS turns
off power to the computer.
With soft-off enabled, if power to the computer is interrupted by a power outage or a disconnected
power cord, when power resumes, the computer returns to the power state it was in before power
was interrupted (on or off). The computer’s response can be set using the After Power Failure
feature in the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu.

1.14.2.3 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. Refer to Section 2.11.3 on page 83 for
additional information.
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 D845BG and D845PT boards
support LAN wake capabilities with ACPI in the following ways:
• the PCI bus PME# signal for PCI 2.2 compliant LAN designs
• the onboard LAN subsystem
• a CNR-based LAN subsystem
43
Intel Desktop Board D845BG/D845PT Technical Product Specification
1.14.2.4 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. Refer to
Section 2.11.3 on page 83 for additional information.
Instantly Available PC technology enables the D845BG and D845PT boards to enter the ACPI S3
(Suspend-to-RAM) 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 10 on page 41 lists the devices and events that can wake the computer from the
S3 state.
The D845BG and D845PT boards support the PCI Bus Power Management Interface
Specification. For information on the versions of this specification, see Section 1.5. 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 2.2
compliant add-in cards and drivers.
The standby power indicator LED shows that power is still present even when the computer
appears to be off. Figure 10 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.

Intel Desktop Board D845BG/D845PT Technical Product Specification
2.7 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 ICH2 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 D845BG and D845PT boards and therefore
share the same interrupt. Table 17 shows an example of how the PIRQ signals are routed on the
D845BG and D845PT boards.
For example, using Table 17 as a reference, assume an add-in card using INTB is plugged into PCI
bus connector 3. In PCI bus connector 3, INTB is connected to PIRQB, which is already
connected to the SMBus. The add-in card in PCI bus connector 3 now shares interrupts with these
onboard interrupt sources.

2. D845BG board only
NOTE
✏
In PIC mode, the ICH2 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 16 for the
allocation of PIRQ lines to IRQ signals in APIC mode.

2.8 Connectors
CAUTION
Only the back panel, the front panel audio, and the front panel USB connectors of the D845BG
and D845PT boards have overcurrent protection. The D845BG and D845PT boards’ 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 interconnecting cable, and the external devices themselves.
This section describes the board’s connectors. The connectors can be divided into the following
groups:
• Back panel I/O connectors (see page 55)

2.8.2.1 Expansion Slots
The board has the following expansion slots:
• One AGP connector. The AGP connector is keyed for 1.5 V AGP cards only. Do not install a
legacy 3.3 V AGP card. The AGP connector is not mechanically compatible with legacy
3.3 V AGP cards.
• PCI rev 2.2 compliant local bus slots (six on the D845BG board, three on the D845PT board).
The SMBus is routed to PCI bus connector 1 only (ATX expansion slot 6). PCI add-in cards
with SMBus support can access sensor data and other information residing on the board.
• One CNR (optional), shared with PCI bus connector 3 (ATX expansion slot 1) on the D845PT
board or with PCI bus connector 6 (ATX expansion slot 1) on the D845BG board.
NOTE
✏
This document references back-panel slot numbering with respect to processor location on the
board. The AGP slot is not numbered. PCI slots are identified as PCI slot #x, starting with the
slot closest to the processor. The CNR slot shares an ATX expansion; slot 6 on the D845BG board
and slot 3 on the D845PT. The ATX/MicroATX specifications identify expansion slot locations
with respect to the far edge of a full-sized ATX chassis. The ATX specification and the board’s
silkscreen are opposite and could cause confusion. The ATX numbering convention is made
without respect to slot type (PCI vs. AGP), but refers to an actual slot location on a chassis.
Figure 14 on page 64 illustrates the board’s PCI slot numbering.

2.10.3 I/O Shield
The back panel I/O shield for D845BG and D845PT boards must meet specific dimension and
material requirements. Systems based on this board need the back panel I/O shield to pass
certification testing. Figures 20-22 show the critical dimensions of the three types of chassis-
dependent I/O shields for the boards. Figure 20 shows the I/O shield for boards with the onboard
LAN subsystem, but not the USB 2.0 option. Figure 21 shows the I/O shield for boards without
the onboard LAN subsystem and the USB 2.0 option. Figure 22 shows the I/O shield for boards
without the onboard LAN subsystem, but with the USB 2.0 option. Dimensions are given in
inches to a tolerance of ±0.02 inches.
The figures also indicate the position of each cutout. Additional design considerations for I/O
shields relative to chassis requirements are described in the ATX specification. See Section 1.5 for

2.11 Electrical Considerations
2.11.1 Power Consumption
Table 49 lists voltage and current measurements for a computer that contains the
D845BG/D845PT board and the following:
• 2.2 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor with a 256 KB cache
• 32 MB AGP card
• 512 MB DDR SDRAM
• 3.5-inch diskette drive
• 10.2 GB IDE hard disk drive
• 52 X IDE CD-ROM drive
This information is provided only as a guide for calculating approximate power usage with
additional resources added.
Values for the Windows XP desktop mode are measured at 1024 x 768 x true color (32 bit) and
85 Hz refresh rate. AC watts are measured with the computer is connected to a typical 300 W
power supply, at nominal input voltage and frequency, with a true RMS wattmeter at the line input.
✏ NOTE
Actual system power consumption depends upon system configuration. The power supply should
comply with the recommendations found in the ATX/ATX12V Power Supply Design Guide,
Version 1.1 (see Section 1.5 on page 19 for specification information).
Table 49. Power Usage
DC Current at:
Mode AC Power +3.3 V +5 V +12 V -12 V +5 VSB
ACPI S0 56.1 W 4.210 A 0.175 A 1.234 A 0.75 A 0.316 A
ACPI S1 44.9 W 2.604 A 0.128 A 1.230 A 0.75 A 0.260 A
ACPI S3 3.9 W 0.004 A 0.003 A 0.003 A 0.004 A 0.411 A
2.11.2 Add-in Board Considerations
The D845BG and D845PT boards are 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 is as follows:
• For a fully loaded D845BG board (all seven expansion slots filled), the total +5 V current draw
must not exceed 14 A.
• For a fully loaded D845PT board (all four expansion slots filled), the total +5 V current draw
must not exceed 8 A.
82
Technical Reference
2.11.3 Standby Current Requirements
CAUTION
If the standby current necessary to support multiple wake events from the PCI and/or USB buses
exceeds power supply capacity, the D845BG and D845PT boards may lose register settings stored
in memory, etc. Calculate the standby current requirements using the steps described below.
Power supplies used with the D845BG and D845PT boards must be able to provide enough
standby current to support the Instantly Available PC (ACPI S3 sleep state) configuration as
outlined in Table 50 below.
Values are determined by specifications such as PCI 2.2. Actual measured values may vary.
To estimate the amount of standby current required for a particular system configuration, standby
current requirements of all installed components must be added to determine the total standby
current requirement. Refer to the descriptions in Table 50 and review the following steps.
1. Note the total D845BG or D845PT board standby current requirement.
2. Add to that the total PS/2 port standby current requirement if a wake-enabled device is
connected.
3. Add, from the PCI 2.2 slots (wake enabled) row, the total number of wake-enabled devices
installed (PCI and AGP) and multiply by the standby current requirement.
4. Add, from the PCI 2.2 slots (nonwake enabled) row, the total number of wake-enabled devices
installed (PCI and AGP) and multiply by the standby current requirement.
5. Add all additional wake-enabled devices’ and nonwake-enabled devices’ standby current
requirements as applicable.
6. Add all the required current totals from steps 1 through 5 to determine the total estimated
standby current power supply requirement.

NOTE
✏
IBM PS/2 Port Specification (Sept 1991) states:
• 275 mA for keyboard
• 70 mA for the mouse (nonwake-enable device)
PCI/AGP requirements are calculated by totaling the following:
• One wake-enabled device @ 375 mA, plus
• Five nonwake-enabled devices @ 20 mA each, plus
USB requirements are calculated as:
• One wake-enabled device @ 500 mA
• USB hub @ 100 mA
• Three USB nonwake-enabled devices connected @ 2.5 mA each
NOTE
✏
Both USB ports are capable of providing up to 500 mA during normal G0/S0 operation. Only one
USB port will support up to 500 mA of stand-by-current (wake-enabled device) during G1/S3
suspended operation. The other port may provide up to 7.5 mA (three nonwake-enabled devices.)
during G1/S3 suspended operation.
2.11.4 Fan Connector Current Capability
Table 51 lists the current capability of the fan connectors on the D845BG and D845PT boards.
Table 51. Fan Connector Current Capability
Fan Connector Maximum Available Current
Processor fan 1.00 A
Front chassis fan 0.50 A
Rear chassis fan 0.35 A
2.11.5 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. Refer to
Section 2.11.3 on page 82 for additional information.
System integrators should refer to the power usage values listed in Table 49 when selecting a
power supply for use with the D845BG or D845PT boards.
Measurements account only for current sourced by the D845BG or D845PT boards while running
in idle modes of the started operating systems.
Additional power required will depend on configurations chosen by the integrator.
84
Technical Reference
The power supply must comply with the following recommendations found in the indicated
sections of the ATX form factor specification.
• The potential relation between 3.3 VDC and +5 VDC power rails (Section 4.2)
• The current capability of the +5 VSB line (Section 4.2.1.2)
• All timing parameters (Section 4.2.1.3)
• All voltage tolerances (Section 4.2.2)

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 MTBF calculations for the boards
are as follows:
• D845BG board MTBF: 140818.2951 hours
• D845PT board MTBF: 143991.3836 hours

3.1 Introduction
The D845BG and D845PT boards use 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 D845BG and D845PT boards support system BIOS shadowing, allowing the BIOS to execute
from 64-bit onboard write-protected system memory.
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code. The
initial production BIOSs are identified as PT84510A.86A.
When the D845BG or D845PT board’s jumper is set to configuration 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.
For information about Refer to
The D845BG and D845PT boards’ compliance level with Plug and Play Section 1.5, page 19
91
Intel Desktop Board D845BG/D845PT Technical Product Specification
3.2 BIOS Flash Memory Organization
The Intel 82802AB Firmware Hub (FWH) includes a 4 Mbit (512 KB) symmetrical flash memory
device. Internally, the device is grouped into eight 64-KB blocks that are individually erasable,
lockable, and unlockable.
3.3 Resource Configuration
3.3.1 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. Autoconfiguration information is stored in
ESCD format.
For information about the versions of PCI and Plug and Play supported by the BIOS, see
Section 1.5.
3.3.2 PCI IDE Support
If you select Auto in the BIOS Setup program, the BIOS automatically sets up the two
PCI IDE connectors 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 (see Section 1.5 for the supported version of ATAPI). 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
✏
ATA-66/100 compatible cables are backward compatible with drives using slower IDE transfer
protocols. If an ATA-66/100 disk drive and a disk drive using any other IDE transfer protocol are
attached to the same cable, the maximum transfer rate between the drives is reduced to that of the
slowest device.
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.
92
Overview of BIOS Features
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.
For information about Refer to
The D845BG and D845PT boards’ compliance level with SMBIOS Section 1.5, page 19
3.5 Legacy USB Support
Legacy USB support enables USB devices such as keyboards, mice, and hubs 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.
93
Intel Desktop Board D845BG/D845PT Technical Product Specification
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.
NOTE
✏
Legacy USB support is for keyboards, mice, and hubs only. Other USB devices are not supported
in legacy mode.
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 file on a 1.44 MB
diskette (from a legacy diskette drive or an LS-120 diskette drive) or a CD-ROM.
Both utilities support the following BIOS maintenance functions:
• Verifying that the updated BIOS matches the target system to prevent accidentally installing
an incompatible BIOS.
• Updating both the BIOS boot block and the main BIOS. This process is fault tolerant to
prevent boot block corruption.
• Updating the BIOS boot block separately.
• Changing the language section of the BIOS.
• Updating replaceable BIOS modules, such as the video BIOS module.
• Inserting a custom splash screen.
NOTE
✏
Review the instructions distributed with the upgrade utility before attempting a BIOS update.
For information about Refer to
The Intel World Wide Web site Section 1.3, page 18
94
Overview of BIOS Features
3.6.1 Language Support
The BIOS Setup program and help messages are supported in five languages: US English,
German, Italian, French, and Spanish. The default language is US English, which is present unless
another language is selected in the BIOS Setup program.
3.6.2 Custom Splash Screen
During POST, an Intel splash screen is displayed by default. This splash screen can be replaced
with a custom splash screen. A utility is available from Intel to assist with creating a custom
splash screen. The custom splash screen can be programmed into the flash memory using the
BIOS upgrade utility. Information about this capability is available on the Intel Support World
Wide Web site.
For information about Refer to
The Intel World Wide Web site Section 1.3, page 18
3.7 Recovering BIOS Data
Some types of failure can destroy the BIOS. For example, the data can be lost if a power outage
occurs while the BIOS is being updated in flash memory. The BIOS can be recovered from a
diskette using the BIOS recovery mode. When recovering the BIOS, be aware of the following:
• Because of the small amount of code available in the non-erasable boot block area, there is no
video support. You can only monitor this procedure by listening to the speaker or looking at
the diskette drive LED.
• The recovery process may take several minutes; larger BIOS flash memory devices require
more time.
• Two beeps and the end of activity in the diskette drive indicate successful BIOS recovery.
• A series of continuous beeps indicates a failed BIOS recovery.
To create a BIOS recovery diskette, a bootable diskette must be created and the BIOS update files
copied to it. BIOS upgrades and the Intel Flash Memory Update Utility are available from Intel
Customer Support through the Intel World Wide Web site.
NOTE
✏
Even if the computer is configured to boot from an LS-120 diskette (in the Setup program’s
Removable Devices submenu), the BIOS recovery diskette must be a standard 1.44 MB diskette not
a 120 MB diskette.
For information about Refer to
The BIOS recovery mode jumper settings Section 2.9.1, page 75
The Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program Section 4.7, page 117
Contacting Intel customer support Section 1.3, page 18
95
Intel Desktop Board D845BG/D845PT 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 and Network 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.
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.
For information about Refer to
The El Torito specification Section 1.5, page 19
3.8.2 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
®
3.9 Fast Booting Systems with Intel Rapid BIOS Boot
These factors affect system boot speed:
• Selecting and configuring peripherals properly
• Using an optimized BIOS, such as the Intel Rapid BIOS
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. 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.
96
Overview of BIOS Features
3.9.2 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.
• Enabled 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 IDE Configuration Submenu
of the BIOS Setup program).
For information about Refer to
IDE Configuration Submenu in the BIOS Setup program Section 4.4.4, page 108

Intel Desktop Board D845BG/D845PT 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.
• 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 message.
