Additional Required Hardware (Not Included In The Development Kit) - Intel Core 2 Duo Processor User Manual

2.3 Additional Required Hardware (Not Included in
the Development Kit)
The following additional hardware may be necessary to operate the development
board.
VGA Monitor: Any standard VGA or multi-resolution monitor may be used. The setup
instructions in this chapter assume the use of a standard VGA monitor or LCD
monitor.
Keyboard: The development board supports both PS/2 and USB style keyboards.
Mouse: The development board supports both PS/2 and USB style pointing devices.
Hard Drives and Optical Disc Drives and cables: One SATA hard disk drive and
one SATA optical DVD Drive are included in the development kit. Up to four SATA
drives and two IDE devices (master and slave) may be connected to the development
board. An optical disc drive (included) may be used to load the OS. All these storage
devices may be attached to the board simultaneously.
Video Adapter Card: Integrated video is output from the VGA connector on the back
panel of the development board. Alternately, a standard PCI Express* video adapter
card, ADD2 card or MEC video adapter card may be used for additional display
flexibility. Please contact the respective vendors for drivers and software for adapters
not provided with this development kit. Check the BIOS and the graphics driver,
where appropriate, for the proper video output settings.
Network Adapter and cables: A Gigabit network interface is provided on the
development board. The network interface will not be operational until after all the
necessary drivers are installed. A standard PCI/PCI Express* adapter may be used in
conjunction with, or in place of, the onboard network adapter. Please contact the
respective vendors for drivers and necessary software for adapters not provided with
this development kit.
You must supply appropriate network cables to utilize the LAN connector or any other
installed network cards.
Other Devices and Adapters: The development board functions much like a
standard desktop computer motherboard. Most PC-compatible peripherals can be
attached and configured to work with the development board.
