Overview

The Acer Altos G301 is a PCI bus based single processor system board
built on an extended ATX baseboard. It comes with a single mPGA478
® ®
processor socket utilizing an Intel Pentium 4 processor integrated
with the ServerWorks GC-SL chipset. The system board also integrates
®
the Intel 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet controller that supports WOL
(Wake on LAN) for better remote site management.
For expandability, the system board using ATI Rage XL integrated with
8MB memory, one 32bit/33MHz 3.3V PCI bus slot, four 64bit/33MHz
3.3V PCI bus slots and four DIMM sockets that allow memory
installation to a maximum of 4GB using four 1GB Registered DDR
SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) with ECC DIMMs.
For connectivity, the system board supports two USB (Universal Serial
Bus) connectors, one UART NS16C550 serial ports, one enhanced
parallel port with Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP)/Extended Capabilities
Port (ECP) support, two PS/2 port, a diskette drive interface, three
embedded hard disk interfaces, one RJ-45 network port and a 9-pin
connector for video output.
The system is fully compatible with MS-DOS V6.X, Novell Netware 6.0,
RedHat Linux 7.3/8.0, Windows NT 4.0 server, and Windows 2000
server.
