Chipset Overview
Intel’s Glenwood (955X) chipset, designed for use with the Pentium 4 Dual Core
LGA 775 CPU, is comprised of two primary components: the Memory Controller
Hub (MCH) and the I/O Controller Hub (ICH7R). In addition, Intel's PCI-X (PXH-V)
is used for added functionality. The PDSG4/PDSGE provides the performance and
feature-set required for the high-end desktop and the UP workstation market.
Memory Controller Hub (MCH)
The function of the MCH is to manage the data flow between four interfaces: the
CPU interface, DDR2 System Memory Interface, PCI Express Interface, and the
Direct Media Interface (DMI). The MCH is optimized for the Pentium 4/Pentium D
processor in the 90nm process in the LGA775 Land Grid Array Package. It supports one or two channels of unbuffered ECC DDR2 SDRAM and a PCI-Express
x16 external graphics port.
The I/O Controller (ICH7R) provides the data buffering and interface arbitration required for the system to operate efficiently. It also provides the bandwidth needed
for the system to maintain its peak performance. The Direct Media Interface (DMI)
is the interconnect between the MCH and the ICH7R. The ICH7R supports up four
Serial ATA ports, eight USB 2.0 ports and two IDE devices. In addition, the ICH7R
offers the Intel Matrix Storage Technology which provides various RAID options for
data protection and rapid data access. It also supports an integrated High Definition
Audio controller for extreme multi-media applications and offers the most advanced
client management through the use of Intel Active Management technology in conjunction with Intel's next generation Gigabit Ethernet controller.
Intel ICH7R System Features
The I/O Controller Hub provides the I/O subsystem with access to the rest of the
system. Functions and capabilities include:
*PCI Express Base Specification, Rev. 1.0a-compliant
*PCI 2.3 with support for 33 MHz PCI operations
*ACPI Power Management Logic Support
*Integrated Serial ATA host controller with independent DMA operation on four ports,
(with support of SATA I and SATA II HDD)
*Integrated IDE controller supports Ultra ATA 100/66/33
*USB host interface with support for eight USB ports
*Enhanced DMA Controller, interrupt controller, and timer functions
*System Management Bus (SMBus) 2.0 with additional support for I 2C devices
*Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface
*Firmware Hub (FWH) Interface
*Audio Codec '97 Rev. 2.3 which provides a link for Audio (up to 6 channels)

PDSG4/PDSGE User’s Manual
1-3 PC Health Monitoring
This section describes the PC health monitoring features of the PDSG4/PDSGE.
The motherboard has an onboard System Hardware Monitor chip that supports PC
health monitoring.
Onboard Voltage Monitors for the CPU Core, Chipset Voltage,
Memory Voltage, +3.3V Standby, +5V, +12V,−12V, +5V standby
and VBAT
The onboard voltage monitor will scan these voltages continuously. Once a voltage
becomes unstable, it will give a warning or send an error message to the screen.
Users can adjust the voltage thresholds to define the sensitivity of the voltage
monitor.
Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Speed Control
The PC health monitor can check the RPM status of the cooling fans. The onboard
fans are controlled by Thermal Management via BIOS.
CPU Overheat LED and Control
This feature is available when the user enables the CPU overheat warning function
in the BIOS. This allows the user to define an overheat temperature. When this
temperature reaches the threshold, the CPU thermal trip feature will be activated
and it will send a signal to the Speaker LED and, at the same time, the CPU speed
will be decreased.
1-4 Power Configuration Settings
This section describes features of your motherboard that deal with power and
power settings.
Slow Blinking LED for Suspend-State Indicator
When the CPU goes into a suspend state, the chassis power LED will start blinking
to indicate that the CPU is in suspend mode. When the user presses any key, the
CPU will wake-up and the LED will automatically stop blinking and remain on.
BIOS Support for USB Keyboard
If the USB keyboard is the only keyboard in the system, it will function like a normal
keyboard during system boot-up.
Main Switch Override Mechanism
When an ATX power supply is used, the power button can function as a system
suspend button to make the system enter a SoftOff state. The monitor will be
1-12
Chapter 1: Introduction
suspended and the hard drive will spin down. Pressing the power button again
will cause the whole system to wake-up. During the SoftOff state, the ATX power
supply provides power to keep the required circuitry in the system alive. In case
the system malfunctions and you want to turn off the power, just press and hold
the power button for 4 seconds. This option can be set in the Power section of
the BIOS Setup routine.
Wake Ring-On (WOR)
Wake-up events can be triggered by a device such as the external modem ringing
when the system is in the SoftOff state. Note that external modem ring-on can only
be used with an ATX 2.01 (or above) compliant power supply.
Wake-On-LAN (WOL)
Wake-On-LAN is defined as the ability of a management application to remotely
power up a computer that is powered off. Remote PC setup, up-dates and asset
tracking can occur after hours and on weekends so that daily LAN traffic is kept to
a minimum and users are not interrupted. The motherboard has a 3-pin header
(WOL) to connect to the 3-pin header on a Network Interface Card (NIC) that has
WOL capability. Wake-On-LAN must be enabled in BIOS. Note that Wake-On-LAN
can only be used with an ATX 2.01 (or above) compliant power supply.
1-5 Power Supply
As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and
reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU
clock rates of 1 GHz and faster.
The
PDSG4/PDSGE accommodates 12V ATX power supplies. Although
most power supplies generally meet the specifications required by the CPU, some
are inadequate. A 2 amps of current supply on a 5V Standby rail is strongly recommended.
The PDSG4/PDSGE accommodates ATX power supplies. It is strongly recommended that you use a high quality power supply that meets ATX power supply
Specification 2.02 or above. You should use one that will supply at least 350W of
power. Also your power supply must supply 1.5A for the Ethernet ports. It must also
be SSI compliant (info at http://www.ssiforum.org/). Additionally, in areas where
noisy power transmission is present, you may choose to install a line filter to shield
the computer from noise. It is recommended that you also install a power surge
protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.

PDSG4/PDSGE User’s Manual
1-6 Super I/O
The disk drive adapter functions of the Super I/O chip include a floppy disk drive
controller that is compatible with industry standard 82077/765, a data separator,
write pre-compensation circuitry, decode logic, data rate selection, a clock generator, drive interface control logic and interrupt and DMA logic. The wide range of
functions integrated onto the Super I/O greatly reduces the number of components
required for interfacing with floppy disk drives. The Super I/O supports two 360
K, 720 K, 1.2 M, 1.44 M or 2.88 M disk drives and data transfer rates of 250 Kb/s,
500 Kb/s or 1 Mb/s.
It also provides two high-speed, 16550 compatible serial communication ports
(UARTs). Each UART includes a 16-byte send/receive FIFO, a programmable
baud rate generator, complete modem control capability and a processor interrupt
system. Both UARTs provide legacy speed with baud rate of up to 115.2 Kbps
as well as an advanced speed with baud rates of 250 K, 500 K, or 1 Mb/s, which
support higher speed modems.
The Super I/O provides functions that comply with ACPI (Advanced Configuration
and Power Interface), which includes support of legacy and ACPI power management through a SMI or SCI function pin. It also features auto power management
to reduce power consumption.

Static-Sensitive Devices
Electric-Static-Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent
damage to your system board, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following
measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD.
Precautions
•
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
•
Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic
bag.
• Handle the board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral
chips, memory modules or gold contacts.
•
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
•
Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in
use.
• For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the motherboard.
•
Use only the correct type of onboard CMOS battery. Do not install the onboard
upside down battery to avoid possible explosion.
Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage. When
unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static protected.

When handling the processor package, avoid placing
direct pressure on the label area of the fan.
(*Notes: 1. Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before adding,
removing or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you install the
processor into the CPU socket before you install the CPU heatsink.
2. Intel's boxed Pentium 4 CPU package contains the CPU fan and heatsink assembly. If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use only Intel-certified
multi-directional heatsink and fan.
3. The Intel Pentium 4 LGA 775 heatsink and fan comes with a push-pin design
and no tool is needed for installation.
4. Make sure to install the motherboard into the chassis before you install the CPU
heatsink and fan.)
5. When purchasing an LGA 775 CPU or when receiving a motherboard with an LGA
775 CPU pre-installed, make sure that the CPU plastic cap is in place and none of
the CPU pins are bent; otherwise, contact the retailer immediately.

Mounting the Motherboard in the Chassis
All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fit different types of chassis.
Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both the motherboard and
the chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting
fasteners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the motherboard to the chassis. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in
tightly. Then use a screwdriver to secure the motherboard onto the motherboard
tray. (*Note: some components are very close to the mounting holes. Please take
all necessary precautionary measures to prevent damage done to these components when installing the motherboard into the chassis.)

2.
rectly. (See support information below.)
Gently press down on the memory module until it snaps into place.
Support
The PDSG4/PDSGE supports Dual channel, ECC unbuffered DDR 2
667/533/400 SDRAM. Both interleaved and non-interleaved memory are
supported, so you may populate any number of DIMM slots. (Populating
DIMM#1A,DIMM#1B, and/or DIMM#2A, DIMM#2B with memory modules
of the same size and of the same type will result in dual channel, two-way
interleaved memory which is faster than the single channel, non-interleaved
memory. When ECC memory is used, it may take 25-40 seconds for the VGA
to display.)
*Note 1. Due to chipset limitation, 8GB Memory can only be supported by the following operating systems:
32-Bit: Windows 2000 Advanced Server & Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition;
64-Bit: Windows Server 2003 Standard/Enterprise/XP x64 Edition
*Note 2. You may install a maximum of 2GB DIMMs on each slot; however, only
DDR 2 533 2GB density modules are available for this configuration.
*Note 3. Some old-version of DDR 2-667 may not match Intel's On-Die-Tempeature
requirement and will be automatically down-graded to run @ 533 MHz, If this occurs,
contact your memory vendor to check the ODT value.)
*Note 4. Due to memory allocation to system devices, memory remaining available
for operational use will be reduced when 4 GB of RAM is used. The reduction in
memory availability is disproportional.

Front Panel (FP) Audio
When front panel headphones are plugged in, the back panel audio output
is disabled. This is done through the FP Audio header (J8). If the front panel
interface card is not connected to the front panel audio header, jumpers
should be installed on the header (J8) pin pairs: 1-2, 5-6, and 9-10. If these
jumpers are not installed, the back panel line out connector will be disabled
and microphone input Pin 1 will be left floating, which can lead to excessive
back panel microphone noise and cross talk. See the table below for pin
definitions.

Jumper Settings
Explanation of
Jumpers
To modify the operation of the
motherboard, jumpers can be
used to choose between optional
settings. Jumpers create shorts
between two pins to change the
function of the connector. Pin 1 is
identified with a square solder pad
on the printed circuit board. See
the motherboard layout pages for
jumper locations.
Note: On two pin jumpers, "Closed"
means the jumper is on and "Open"
means the jumper is off the pins.
GLAN Enable/Disable
JPL1 enables or disables the GLAN
port on the motherboard. See the
table on the right for jumper settings.
The default setting is enabled.

CMOS Clear
JBT1 is used to clear CMOS. Instead of pins,
this "jumper" consists of contact pads to prevent the accidental clearing of CMOS. To clear
CMOS, use a metal object such as a small
screw driver to touch both pads at the same
time to short the connection. Always remove
the AC power cord from the system before
clearing CMOS.
Note: For an ATX power supply, you must
completely shut down the system, remove the
AC power cord and then short JBT1 to clear
CMOS. Do not use the PW_ON connector
to clear CMOS.
Watch Dog Enable
JWD controls Watch Dog, a system monitor
that takes action when a software application
freezes the system. Close Pins 1-2 to reset
the system if a program hangs. Close Pins 23 to generate a non-maskable interrupt for the
program that hangs. Watch Dog must also be
enabled in BIOS.

USB Wake-Up
Use JPUSB jumpers to enable the function of
"System Wake-Up via USB devices", which
allows you to "wake-up" the system by pressing a key on the USB keyboard or by clicking
the USB mouse of your system. The JPUSB
jumpers are used together with the USB
Wake-Up function in the BIOS. Enable both
the jumpers and the BIOS setting to allow
the system to "wake-up via USB Devices".
See the table on the right for jumper settings
and jumper connections. (*Note: JPUSB1 is
for Back Panel USB ports:1/2/3/4/5/6, and
JPUSB2 is for Front Panel USB ports:7/8.)
(*Note: The default jumper setting for the
USB ports is "Disabled". However, when
the "USB Wake-Up" function is enabled in
the BIOS and the desired USB ports are
enabled via the JPUSB jumper, please be
sure to remove all USB devices from the
USB ports whose USB jumpers are set to
"Disabled" before the system goes into the
standby mode.)

Troubleshooting Procedures
Use the following procedures to troubleshoot your system. If you have followed all
of the procedures below and still need assistance, refer to the ‘Technical Support
Procedures’ and/or ‘Returning Merchandise for Service’ section(s) in this chapter.
Always disconnect the AC power cord before adding, changing or installing any
hardware components.
Before Power On
1. Make sure that the +5v standby LED is not lit (LE Indicators on the motherboard).
2. Make sure that the 8-pin 12v power connector at JPW2 is connected to your
power supply.
3. Make sure that there are no short circuits between the motherboard and chassis.
4. Disconnect all ribbon/wire cables from the motherboard, including those for the
keyboard and mouse.
5. Remove all add-on cards.
6. Install a CPU and heatsink (Be sure that it is fully seated,) and then, connect the
chassis speaker and the power LED to the motherboard. Check all jumper
settings as well.
7. It is imperative that you use the correct type of CMOS battery as specified by
the Manufacturer. Do not install the CMOS battery upside down to avoid possible explosion.
No Power
1. Make sure that there are no short circuits between the motherboard and the
chassis.
2. Make sure that all jumpers are set to their default positions.
3. Check if the 115V/230V switch on the power supply is properly set.
4. Turn the power switch on and off to test the system.
5. The battery on your motherboard may be old. Check to verify that it still supplies
~3VDC. If it does not, replace it with a new one.
No Video
1. If the power is on, but you have no video--in this case, you will need to remove
all the add-on cards and cables first.
2. Use the speaker to determine if any beep codes exist. (Refer to Appendix A for
details on beep codes.)
3-1
PDSG4/PDSGE User's Manual
NOTE
If you are a system integrator, VAR or OEM, a POST diagnostics
card is recommended. For I/O port 80h codes, refer to App. B.
Memory Errors
1. Make sure that the DIMM modules are properly installed and fully seated in the
slots.
2. You should be using unbuffered, ECC DDR 2-677/533 memory (see the next
page). Also, it is recommended that you use the same memory speed for all
DIMMs in the system. See Section 2-4 for memory limitations.
3. Check for bad DIMM modules or slots by swapping modules between slots and
noting the results.
4. Check the power supply voltage 115V/230V switch.
Losing the System’s Setup Configuration
1. Please be sure to use a high quality power supply. A poor quality power supply
may cause the system to lose the CMOS setup information. Refer to Section
1-6 for details on recommended power supplies.
2. The battery on your motherboard may be old. Check to verify that it still supplies
~3VDC. If it does not, replace it with a new one.
3. If the above steps do not fix the Setup Configuration problem, contact your
vendor for repairs.
3-2
Technical Support Procedures
Before contacting Technical Support, please make sure that you have followed all
the steps listed below. Also, note that as a motherboard manufacturer, Supermicro
does not sell directly to end-users, so it is best to first check with your distributor or
reseller for troubleshooting services. They should know of any possible problem(s)
with the specific system configuration that was sold to you.
1. Please go through the ‘Troubleshooting Procedures’ and 'Frequently Asked Question' (FAQ) sections in this chapter or see the FAQs on our web site (http://

Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What type of memory does my motherboard support?
Answer: The PDSG4/PDSGE supports up to 8 GB of unbuffered, ECC, DDR2677/533/400, two-way interleaved or non-interleaved SDRAM. See Section 2-4 for
details on installing memory.
Question: How do I update my BIOS?
Answer: It is recommended that you do not upgrade your BIOS if you are experiencing no problems with your system. Updated BIOS files are located on our web
site at http://www.supermicro.com/support/bios/. Please check our BIOS warning
message and the information on how to update your BIOS on our web site. Also,
check the current BIOS revision and make sure it is newer than your BIOS before
downloading. Select your motherboard model and download the BIOS file to your
computer. Unzip the BIOS files onto a bootable floppy and reboot your system.
Follow the Readme.txt to continue flashing the BIOS.
(*Warning: Do not shut down or reset the system while updating BIOS to
prevent possible system boot failure!)
Question: What's on the CD that came with my motherboard?
Answer: The supplied compact disc has quite a few drivers and programs that will
greatly enhance your system. We recommend that you review the CD and install
the applications you need. Applications on the CD include chipset drivers for the
Windows OS, security and audio drivers.

PDSG4/PDSGE User's Manual
Question: Why can't I turn off the power using the momentary power on/off
switch?
Answer: The instant power off function is controlled in the BIOS by the Power Button Mode setting. When the On/Off feature is enabled, the motherboard will have
instant off capabilities as long as the BIOS has control of the system. When the
Standby or Suspend feature is enabled or when the BIOS is not in control such
as during memory count (the first screen that appears when the system is turned
on), the momentary on/off switch must be held for more than four seconds to shut
down the system. This feature is required to implement the ACPI features on the
motherboard.
Question: How do I utilize the six-channel sound?
Answer: The six-channel sound available on the PDSG4/PDSGE can be enabled
with the audio driver software that was included in your motherboard package.
When activated, sound will be routed through the jacks under the Game Port as
follows: Line Out = front L&R speakers, Line In = rear L&R speakers, MIC = center
and subwoofer speakers. You must also enable the "AC97 Audio" setting in the
Advanced Chipset section of the BIOS setup.
Question: I installed my microphone correctly but I can't record any sound.
What should I do?
Answer: Go to <Start>, <Programs>, <Accessories>, <Entertainment> and then
<Volume Control>. Under the Properties tab, scroll down the list of devices in the
menu and check the box beside "Microphone".
Question: How do I connect the ATA100/66 cable to my IDE device(s)?
Answer: The 80-wire/40-pin high-density ATA100/66 IDE cable that came with
your system has two connectors to support two drives. This special cable must be
used to take advantage of the speed the ATA100/66 technology offers. Connect
the blue connector to the onboard IDE header and the other connector(s) to
your hard drive(s). Consult the documentation that came with your disk drive for
details on actual jumper locations and settings.

Introduction
This chapter describes the Award BIOS for the PDSG4/PDSGE. The Award ROM
BIOS is stored in a Flash chip and can be easily upgraded using a floppy diskbased program.
(*Note: Due to periodic changes to the BIOS, some settings may have been added
or deleted and might not yet be recorded in this manual. Refer to the Manual
Download area of our web site for any changes to the Award BIOS not reflected
in this manual.)
System BIOS
The BIOS is the Basic Input Output System used in all IBM® PC, XT™, AT®, and
PS/2® compatible computers. The Award BIOS Flash chip stores the system parameters, such as amount of memory, type of disk drives and video displays, etc.
CMOS requires very little power. When the computer is turned off, a back-up battery
provides power to the BIOS Flash chip, enabling it to retain the system parameters.
Each time the computer is powered-on, the computer is then configured with the
values stored in the BIOS ROM by the system BIOS, which gains control when the
computer is powered on.
How To Change the Configuration Data
The CMOS information that determines the system parameters may be changed
by entering the BIOS Setup utility. This Setup utility can be accessed by pressing
<Del> at the appropriate time during system boot.
Starting the Setup Utility
Normally, the only visible POST (Power On Self Test) routine is the memory test. As
the memory is being tested, press the <Delete> key to enter the main menu of the
BIOS Setup utility. From the main menu, you can access the other setup screens,
such as the Chipset and Power menus. Section 4-3 gives detailed descriptions of
each parameter setting in the Setup utility.
(*Warning: Do not shut down or reset the system while updating the
BIOS to prevent possible system boot failure!)

Appendix C
Software Installation
After all the hardware has been installed, you must first configure Intel's ICH7R
SATA RAID* before you install the Windows Operating System and other software
drivers.
*If you do not wish to configure onboard SATA RAID functions, please go directly to
Section C-4 on page C-15 for Operating System & Other Software Installation.
C-1 Introduction to Serial ATA and Parallel ATA
To configure the SATA RAID functions, you must first use the Intel ICH7R SATA
RAID Utility program to configure the RAID Level that you desire before installing
the Windows XP/2000/2003 operating system and other software drivers. (The
necessary drivers are all included on the Supermicro CD that came packaged with
your motherboard.) Note that the current version of the ICH7R SATA RAID Utility
can only support Windows XP/2000/2003 Operating Systems.
Serial ATA (SATA)
Serial ATA (SATA) is a physical storage interface that uses a single cable with a
minimum of four wires to create a point-to-point connection between devices. It is
a serial link, which supports transfer rates up to 3Gbps. Because the serial cables
used in SATA are thinner than the traditional cables used in Parallel ATA (PATA),
SATA systems have better airflow and can be installed in smaller chassis than
Parallel ATA. In addition, the cables used in PATA are limited to a length of 40cm,
while Serial ATA cables can be up to one meter in length. Overall, SATA provides
better functionality than PATA.
Introduction to Intel ICH7R Serial RAID
Located in the South Bridge of the 955X Glenwood chipset, the I/O Controller
Hub (ICH7R) provides the I/O subsystem with access to the rest of the system. It
supports a 2-channel UltraATA/100 Bus Master IDE controller (PATA) and four Serial ATA (SATA) ports. The ICH7R supports the following PATA and SATA device
configurations: Legacy mode and Native mode.
C-1
PDSG4/PDSGE User's Manual
RAID Configurations
The following types of RAID configurations are supported:
RAID 0 (Data Striping): this writes data in parallel, interleaved ("striped") sections
of two hard drives. Data transfer rate is doubled over using a single disk.
RAID1 (Data Mirroring): an identical data image from one drive is copied to another
drive. The second drive must be the same size or larger than the first drive.
RAID 10 (Striping & Mirroring): RAID 0 and 1 schemes are combined (without parity
information) to get the benefits of both.
RAID 5: both data and parity information are striped and mirrored across three or
more hard drives.
Intel Matrix Storage
The Intel Matrix Storage, supported by the ICH7R, allows the user to create
RAID 0 and RAID1 set by using only two identical hard disk drives. The Intel
Matrix Storage Technology creates two partitions on each hard disk drive and
generate a virtual RAID0 and RAID1sets. It also allows you the change the HDD
partition size without any data.
Configuring BIOS settings for SATA RAID Functions (Native Mode)
1. Press the <Del> key during system bootup to enter the BIOS Setup Utility.
Note: If it is the first time powering on the system, we recommend you load the
Optimized Default Settings. If you have already done so, please skip to Step 3.
2. Use the arrow keys to select the "Exit" Settings. Once in the "Exit" settings,
Scroll down to select "Load Optimized Default Settings" and press the <Enter>
key. Select "OK" to confirm the selection. Press the <Enter> key to load the default
settings for the BIOS.
3. Use the arrow keys to select the "Advanced" section in BIOS.
4. Scroll down to "Advanced Chipset Control" and press the <Enter> key to select
this option.
5. Select "On-Chip Serial ATA" and press the <Enter> key. When the sub-menu
appears, select "Enhanced Mode".
6. Scroll up to "SATA Mode" and press the <Enter> key to select this option. When
the sub-menu appears, select "RAID".
7. Tap the "Esc" key and scroll down to "Exit". Select "Save and Exit" from the "Exit"
menu. Press the <Enter> key to save the changes and exit the BIOS.
8. Once you've exited the BIOS Utility, the system will re-boot.
9. During the system boot-up, press the <Ctrl> and <I> keys simultaneously to run
the Adaptec RAID Configuration Utility when prompted by the following message:
Press <Ctrl> <I> for Adaptec RAID Configuration Utility.
