Introduction

P8/333 series of mainboards utilize Intel

consisting of two components: the Intel 845GE Graphics

Memory Controller Hub(GMCH) and the I/O Controller

Hub4(ICH4), providing a fully compatible, high performance

and cost-effective ATX platform. The new integrated

technologies, together with AC'97 audio(2/6-channel), 6

USB , and ATA100/66/33, give customers an advanced, mul-

timedia solution at reasonable price. It provides 400/533MHz

host bus speed to support Intel

cessors and the DDR200/266/333 memory. It also provides

advanced features such as Wake up by USB devices, Wake-

on-LAN, Wake-on-Modem, ACPI, CPU overheat triple

protection, and Keyboard Password Power-on functions.

Suspending to RAM, the optimal implementation of the Ad-

vanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) specifica-

tion, makes the PC's power consumption drop to the lowest

possible level and enable quick wakeup.
