USB Support
The motherboard has three USB ports. You can connect three USB peripheral devices directly to
the computer without an external hub. To attach more than three devices, connect an external hub
to either of the built-in ports. The motherboard supports the standard universal host controller
interface (UHCI) and takes advantage of standard software drivers written to be compatible with
UHCI.

NOTE
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port might not meet FCC
Class B requirements, even if no device or a low-speed USB device is attached to the cable. Use a
shielded cable that meets the requirements for a high-speed USB device.
PCI Enhanced IDE Interface
The PCI enhanced IDE interface handles the exchange of information between the processor and
peripheral devices like hard disks, CD-ROM drives, and Iomega Zip
The interface supports:
Up to four IDE devices (such as hard drives)
ATAPI devices (such as CD-ROM drives)
PIO Mode 3 and PIO Mode 4 devices
Ultra ATA/33 and Ultra ATA/66
Support for laser servo (LS-120) drives
Expansion Slots
The motherboard has five PCI expansion slots, a universal AGP connector, and an AMR
connector. The sound card, the modem, and the home networking card occupy three of the PCI
slots. The AGP video card is installed in the AGP connector. Two PCI expansion slots and the
AMR connector remain open when the system is shipped.
Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)
The AGP is a high-performance bus for graphics-intensive applications, such as 3D graphics.
AGP is independent of the PCI bus and is intended for exclusive use with graphical display
devices.
