Serial Ports The S845WD1-E server board has one serial port connector and one serial port header. The serial port A connector is located on the back panel. The serial port B header is located near the main power connector. The serial ports’ NS16C550-compatible UART supports data transfers at speeds up to 115.2 kb/s with BIOS support. Parallel Port The 25-pin D-Sub parallel port connector is located on the back panel. In the BIOS Setup program, the parallel port can be set to the fol

Legacy USB Support Legacy USB support enables USB devices such as keyboard, mice, and hubs to be used even when the operating system’s USB drivers are not yet available. Legacy USB support is used to access the BIOS Setup program, and to install an operating system that supports USB. By default, Legacy USB support is set to Enabled. The S845WD1-E server board has four USB 1.1 ports; one USB peripheral can be connected to each port. For more than four USB devices, an external hub can be

BIOS The S845WD1-E server board uses an Intel/AMI BIOS that is stored in the Firmware Hub (FWH) and can be updated using a disk-based program. The FWH contains the BIOS Setup program, POST, the PCI auto-configuration utility, and Plug and Play support. The S845WD1-E server board supports system BIOS shadowing, allowing the BIOS to execute from 64-bit onboard write-protected system memory. The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code. The ini
