Legacy I/O<br />

20<br />

The board’s Legacy I/O Controller provides the following legacy features:<br />

• Low pin count (LPC) interface<br />

• Consumer Infrared (CIR) support<br />

• Serial IRQ interface compatible with serialized IRQ support for Conventional PCI<br />

bus systems<br />

• Intelligent power management, including a programmable wake-up event interface<br />

BIOS<br />

The BIOS Setup program provides configuration options for the Legacy I/O controller.<br />

The BIOS provides the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, and the<br />

PCI Express and SATA auto-configuration utilities. The BIOS is stored in the Serial<br />

Peripheral Interface (SPI) Flash device.<br />

The BIOS can be updated by following the instructions in Chapter 3 starting on<br />

page 61.<br />

SATA Auto Configuration<br />

If you install a SATA device (such as a hard drive) in your computer, the autoconfiguration<br />

utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the device for<br />

your computer. You do not need to run the BIOS Setup program after installing a<br />

SATA device. You can override the auto-configuration options by specifying manual<br />

configuration in the BIOS Setup program.<br />

The BIOS sets SATA to ACHI mode by default.<br />

PCI*/PCI Express Auto Configuration<br />

If you install a Conventional PCI or PCI Express add-in card in your computer, the PCI<br />

auto-configuration utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the<br />

resources (IRQs, DMA channels, and I/O space) for that add-in card. You do not need<br />

to run the BIOS Setup program after you install a Conventional PCI or PCI Express<br />

add-in card.
