•Easy Installation: Is equipped with BIOS that supports auto detection of hard

drives, PS/2 mouse, and Plug and Play devices to make setup of hard drives,

expansion cards, and other devices virtually automatic.

•Desktop Management Interface (DMI): Supports DMI through BIOS which

allows hardware to communicate within a standard protocol creating a higher

level of compatibility. (Requires DMI-enabled components.) (See section V)

•L2 Cache: Comes in 256KB or 512KB models.

•Versatile DRAM Memory Support: Supports 72-pin SIMMs of 4MB, 8MB,

16MB, or 32MB to form a memory size between 8MB to 128MB. Supports

both Fast Page Mode (FPM) and Extended Data Output (EDO) SIMMs.

•ISA and PCI Expansion Slots: Provides three PCI slots, three ISA slots, and one

PCI/ISA share slot.

•Super Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART compatible serial ports and

one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. UART2 can also be directed

from COM2 to the Infrared Module for wireless connections. Two floppy drives

of either 5.25" or 3.5" (1.44MB or 2.88MB) are also supported without an exter-

nal card. The Japanese "Floppy 3 mode" (3.5" 1.2MB) floppy standard is
