A. Dual Display Configurations: This motherboard provides three display ports, DVI-D, HDMI, and D-Sub ports and supports dualdisplay configurations. Note that the DVI-D+HDMI configuration only works in operating system environments. In addition, under this configuration, the BIOS Setup and POST screens can only be output from the HDMI port. B. Playback of HD DVD and Blu-ray Discs: In order to get better playback quality, when playing the HD DVD or Blu-ray discs, refer to the recommended system requirements (or better) below. • CPU: Intel® Dual-Core processor • Memory: Two 1 GB DDR2 800 memory modules with dual channel mode enabled • HDCP compliant monitor(s) Optical S/PDIF Out Connector This connector provides digital audio out to an external audio system that supports digital optical audio. Before using this feature, ensure that your audio system provides an optical digital audio in connector. IEEE 1394a Port The IEEE 1394 port supports the IEEE 1394a specification, featuring high speed, high bandwidth and hotplug capabilities. Use this port for an IEEE 1394a device. eSATA 3Gb/s Port The eSATA 3Gb/s port conforms to SATA 3Gb/s standard and is compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s standard. Use the port to connect an external SATA device. RJ-45 LAN Port The Gigabit Ethernet LAN port provides Internet connection at up to 1 Gbps data rate. The following describes the states of the LAN port LEDs. Connection/ Speed LED Activity LED LAN Port Connection/Speed LED: State Description Orange 1 Gbps data rate Green 100 Mbps data rate Off 10 Mbps data rate Activity LED: State Description Blinking Data transmission or receiving is occurring Off No data transmission or receiving is occurring • When removing the cable connected to a back panel connector, first remove the cable from your device and then remove it from the motherboard. • When removing the cable, pull it straight out from the connector. Do not rock it side to side to prevent an electrical short inside the cable connector. GA-EG45M-UD2H Motherboard - 20 -
