II. FEATURES Specifications II. FEATURES Features The ASUS P2B-L/P2B-S/P2B-LS motherboards are carefully designed for the demanding PC user who wants many advanced features processed by the fastest CPU. • Multi-Speed: Supports Intel Pentium® II processors from 233MHz to 450MHz. • IntelAGPset: Features Intel's 440BXAGPset with I/O subsystems and front-side bus (FSB) platform, which boosts the traditional 66-MHz internal bus speed to 100MHz. • Enhanced ACPI and Anti-Boot Virus BIOS: Features a programmable BIOS (Flash EEPROM), offering enhanced ACPI for Windows 98 compatibility, builtin hardware-based virus protection, and autodetection of most devices for virtually automatic setup. • PC100 Memory Support: Equipped with four DIMM sockets to support Intel PC100-compliant SDRAMs (8, 16, 32, 64, 128, or 256MB) up to 1024MB. • Network Interface: Features the Intel 82558 Ethernet LAN Controller (fully integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) as an option and a LAN Activity LED connector (optional/reserved) for monitoring network conditions. • Adaptec SCSI Chipset: Features Adaptec AIC-7890 Ultra2 SCSI chipset (optional) that supports a combination of 8-bit and 16-bit Ultra2, Ultra, and singleended or standard SCSI devices and AIC-3860 transceiver chipset (optional) that bridges the compatibility gap between these mixed environments without affecting system performance by taking advantage of the benefits of low-voltage differential (LVD) technology. • AGP Slot: Supports Accelerated Graphics Port cards for high performance, component level interconnect targeted at 3D graphical display applications. • PCI/ISA Expansion Slots: Provides four 32-bit PCI and two 16-bit ISA slots. • Intelligence: Supports Keyboard Power Up, Fan Status Monitoring and Alarm, Temperature Monitoring and Alert, Voltage Monitoring and Alert, System Resources Alert, and Virus Write Protection through the onboard Hardware Monitor, Intel LANDesk Client Manager (LDCM), and ASUS PC Probe software. • Super Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART compatible serial ports and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. UART2 can also be directed from COM2 to the Infrared Module for wireless connections. • Ultra DMA/33 Bus Master IDE/Floppy: Comes with an onboard PCI Bus Master IDE controller with two connectors that supports four IDE devices in two channels, supports UltraDMA/33, PIO Modes 3 and 4 and Bus Master IDE DMA Mode 2, and supports Enhanced IDE devices. Two floppy drives of either 5.25inch or 3.5inch (1.44MB or 2.88MB) are also supported without an external card. Supports Japanese standard "Floppy 3 mode" (3.5-inch disk drive: 1.2MB) and LS-120 floppy disk drives (3.5-inch disk drive: 120 MB, 1.44MB, 720KB). BIOS supports IDE CD-ROM or SCSI device boot-up. • Concurrent PCI: Allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master buses to memory to CPU. 8 ASUS P2B-L/P2B-S/P2B-LS User's Manual
