Plug and Play

In addition to power management, ACPI provides controls and information so that the operating
system can facilitate Plug and Play device enumeration and configuration. ACPI is used only to
enumerate and configure motherboard devices that do not have other hardware standards for
enumeration and configuration. PCI devices on the motherboard, for example, are not enumerated
by ACPI.

BIOS Support

The BIOS supports both APM and ACPI. If the board is used with an ACPI-aware operating, the
BIOS provides ACPI support. Otherwise, it defaults to APM support.

Language Support

Five languages are available: American English, German, Italian, French, and Spanish. The
default language is American English unless another language is programmed into the BIOS using
the flash memory update utility.
The BIOS includes extensions to support the Kanji character set and other non-ASCII character
sets. Translations of other languages may become available at a later date.

OEM Logo or Scan Area

A 4 KB flash-memory user area at memory location FFFF8000h-FFFF8FFFh is for displaying a
custom OEM logo during POST. A utility is available from Intel to assist with installing a logo
into the flash memory. Contact Intel customer support for further information.
