1-2 Chipset Overview
Built upon the functionality and the capability of the 5400 chipset, the X7DWT/
X7DWT-INF motherboard provides the performance and feature set required
for dual processor-based servers with configuration options optimized for
communications, presentation, storage, computation or database applications.
The 5400 chipset supports single or dual Xeon 64-bit Quad-Core/Dual-Core
processor(s) with a front side bus speeds of up to 1.600 GHz. The chipset consists
of the 5400 Memory Controller Hub (MCH) and the Enterprise South Bridge 2
(ESB2).
The 5400 MCH chipset is designed for symmetric multiprocessing across two
independent front side bus interfaces. Each front side bus uses a 64-bit wide,
1600 MHz data bus to transfer data. The MCH chipset connects up to eight Fully
Buffered DIMM modules, providing a total memory of up to 64 GB for DDR2 FBD
800/667/533 MHz. The MCH chipset also provides one x8 PCI-Express and one
x4 ESI interfaces to the ESB2. In addition, the 5400 chipset offers a wide range of
RAS features, including memory interface ECC, x4/x8 Single Device Data Correc-
tion, CRC, parity protection, memory mirroring and memory sparing.
Xeon Quad-Core/Dual-Core Processor Features
Designed to be used with conjunction of the 5400 chipset, the Xeon Quad-Core/
Dual-Core Processor provides a feature set as follows:
Xeon Quad-Core/Dual-Core Processors
L1 Cache Size: Instruction Cache (32KB/16KB), Data Cache (32KB/24KB)
L2 Cache Size: 4MB/2MB (per core)
Data Bus Transfer Rate: 8.5 GB/s
Package: FC-LGA6/FC-LGA4, 771 Lands

X7DWT/X7DWT-INF User's Manual
1-3 Special Features
Recovery from AC Power Loss
The feature allows the user to set the power state after a power outage. You can
select Power-Off for the system power to remain off after a power loss. Select
Power-On for the system power to be turned on after a power loss. Select Last
State to allow the system to resume its last state before the power loss. The default
setting is Last State.
1-4 PC Health Monitoring
This section describes the PC health monitoring features of the X7DWT/X7DWT-
INF. All models have an onboard System Hardware Monitor chip that supports PC
health monitoring.
Onboard Voltage Monitors
An onboard voltage monitor will scan for CPU Cores, Memory Voltage, Chipset
Voltage (+1.5V),+1.8V, +3.3V, +5V, +12V, −12V, +3.3V Standby, +5V standby, HT
and VBAT continuously. Once a voltage becomes unstable, a warning is given or
an error message is sent to the screen. Users can adjust the voltage thresholds
to defi ne the sensitivity of the voltage monitor.
Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Control
The PC health monitor can check the RPM status of the cooling fans. The onboard
CPU and chassis fans are controlled by Thermal Management 2 (TM2) in the BIOS
(under Hardware Monitoring in the Advanced Setting).
Environmental Temperature Control
The thermal control sensor monitors the CPU temperature in real time and will turn
on the thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature reaches a user-defi ned
threshold. The overheat circuitry runs independently from the CPU. Once it detects
that the CPU temperature is too high, it will automatically turn on the thermal fan
control to prevent overheating. The onboard chassis thermal circuitry can monitor
the overall system temperature and alert users when the chassis temperature is
too high.
CPU Fan Auto-Off in Sleep Mode
The CPU fan is activated when the power is turned on. It continues to operate even
when the system enters the standby mode. When in the sleep mode, the CPU will
not run at full power, thereby generating less heat.
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 defi ne an overheat temperature threshold.

Chapter 1: Introduction
1-11
When the temperature reaches a user pre-defi ned threshold, both overheat fan
and warning LED are triggered.
System Resource Alert
This feature is available when used with Supero Doctor III in the Windows OS
environment or used with Supero Doctor II in Linux. Supero Doctor is used to
notify the user of certain system events. For example, if the system is running
low on virtual memory and there is insuffi cient hard drive space for saving the
data, you can be alerted of the potential problem. You can also confi gure Supero
Doctor to provide you with warnings when the system temperature reaches a
pre-defi ned range.
1-5 ACPI Features
ACPI stands for Advanced Confi guration and Power Interface. The ACPI specifi -
cation defi nes a fl exible and abstract hardware interface that provides a standard
way to integrate power management features throughout a PC system, including
its hardware, operating system and application software. This enables the system
to automatically turn on and off peripherals such as CD-ROMs, network cards,
hard disk drives and printers. This also includes consumer devices connected to
the PC such as VCRs, TVs, telephones and stereos.
In addition to enabling operating system-directed power management, ACPI
provides a generic system event mechanism for Plug and Play and an operating
system-independent interface for confi guration control. ACPI leverages the Plug
and Play BIOS data structures while providing a processor architecture-indepen-
dent implementation that is compatible with Windows 2000, Windows 2003, and
Windows Vista Operating Systems.
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.
Main Switch Override Mechanism
When a 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 suspended
and the hard drive will spin down. Pressing the power button again to wake up
the whole system. During the SoftOff state, the 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 Boot Features Section under Advanced
Setup in the BIOS.

2-1 Static-Sensitive Devices
Electrostatic-Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To
prevent damage to your system board, it is important to handle it very
carefully. The following measures are generally suffi cient 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 as specifi ed by the
manufacturer. Do not install the onboard battery upside down 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.

modules to prevent any possible damage. Also note that the
memory is interleaved to improve performance (see step 1).
DIMM Installation (See Figure 2-2)
1. Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with DIMM
#1A. The memory scheme is interleaved so you must install two modules at
a time, beginning with DIMM #1A, then DIMM #2A and so on. For optimal
performance, please install four modules of the same type and same speed
in Branch 0 and Branch 1 at a time (up to 8 modules maximum). (See the
Memory Installation Table Below.)
2. Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the notch along
the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the DIMM module incorrectly.
3. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot.
Repeat for all modules (see step 1 above).
Memory Support
The X7DWT/X7DWT-INF supports up to 64 GB ECC DDR2 FBD (Fully Buffered)
800/667/533 in 8 DIMMs. Populating DIMM modules with pairs of memory mod-
ules of the same size and same type will result in Interleaved Memory which
will increase memory performance.
Note 1: Due to OS limitations, some operating systems may not show more than
4 GB of memory.
Note 2: Both 1.5V and 1.8V memory modules are supported. However, do not
use different memory modules with different speeds, voltages, sizes or types on
the same motherboard.
Note 3: Due to memory allocation to system devices, memory remaining avail-

(*Notes: i. DIMM slot# specified: DIMM slot to be populated; “---“: DIMM
slot not to be populated. ii. Both FBD 533 MHz and 667MHz DIMMs are
supported; however, you need to use the memory modules of the same
speed and of the same type on a motherboard. iii. Interleaved memory is
supported when pairs of DIMM modules are installed. To optimize memory
performance, please populate pairs of memory modules in both Branch 0
and Branch 1. iv. For memory to work properly, you need to follow the
restrictions listed above. )

in memory availability is disproportional. (Refer to the Memory Availability Table
below for details.
To Install: Insert module
vertically and press down
until it snaps into place.
Pay attention to the align-
ment notch at the bottom.
