Smartcard Reader Connector:  This connector provides the convenience of
PS/SC compatible Smart Card security plus support for a multitude of new
financial, telephonic, and mobile access services.
Intel Front Panel Connector: Supports an optional front panel for easy USB
connectivity, control and monitoring of major PC functions.
Fan Status Monitoring and Alarm: To prevent system overheat and system
damage, the CPU and MAIN fans are monitored for speed and failure. All the
fans are set for its normal RPM range and alarm thresholds.
Temperature Monitoring and Alert: To prevent system overheat and system
damage, this motherboard supports processor thermal sensing and auto-protection.
Voltage Monitoring and Alert: System voltage levels are monitored to ensure
stable current to critical motherboard components. Voltage specifications are
more critical for future processors, so monitoring is necessary to ensure proper
system configuration and management.
System Resources Alert: Today’s operating systems, such as Windows 98,
Millenium, NT, 2000 and XP, require much more memory and hard drive space
to present enormous user interfaces and run large applications. The onboard
hardware ASUS ASIC in conjunction with either the bundled ASUS PC Probe
or Intel LDCM will warn the user before the system resources are used up to
prevent possible application crashes. Suggestions will give the user information
on managing their limited resources more efficiently.
Dual Function Power Button: Through BIOS, the power button can be defined
as the “Stand by” (ie.: Suspend or Sleep) button or as the Soft-Off (see ATX
Power / Soft-Off Switch Lead
 in 3.8 Connectors for more information) button.
Regardless of the setting, pushing the power button for more than 4 seconds will
enter the Soft-Off mode.
Peripheral Power Up: Keyboard or Mouse power up can be enabled or dis-
abled through BIOS setup to allow the computer to be powered ON using your
keyboard or mouse click.
New Compliancy: Both the BIOS and hardware levels of the motherboard meet
the stringent requirements for PC 99 certification. The new PC 99 requirements
for systems and components are based on the following high-level goals: sup-
port for Plug and Play compatibility and power management for configuring
and managing all system components, and 32-bit device drivers and installation
procedures for Windows 95/NT and later. Color-coded connectors and descrip-
tive icons make identification easy as required by PC 99.
