The P/I-P65UP5 is carefully designed for the demanding PC user who wants great
versatility in the assembly of a computer system. This baseboard:
• Easy Installation: Is equipped with BIOS that supports auto detection of hard
drives and Plug and Play to make setup of hard drives and expansion cards
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.)
• Versatile Processor Support: Supports dual 75-200MHz Pentium or dual
150-200MHz Pentium Pro CPU card.
• Versatile DRAM Memory Support: Supports eight 72-pin SIMMs of 4MB,
8MB, 16MB, 32MB, 64MB to form a memory size between 8MB to 512MB.
Supports both Fast Page Mode (FPM), and Extended Data Output (EDO)
SIMMs. Burst Extended Data Output (BEDO) supported with the C-P6ND
CPU card.
ISA and PCI Expansion Slots: Provides three 16-bit ISA slots, four 32-bit
PCI slots, and one PCI/MediaBus 2.0 which allows the use of either a standard
PCI card or the ASUS MediaBus Card.
•

• ASUS MediaBus Rev 2.0: Features an expansion slot extension shared with
PCI Slot 5 for an optional high-performance expansion card which includes
two functions in one easy-to-install card. (For revision compatibility infor-
mation, please refer to page 16.)
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 external card. The Japanese "Floppy 3 mode" (3.5" 1.2MB)
floppy standard is also supported.
PCI Bus Master IDE Controller: Comes with an onboard PCI Bus Master
IDE controller with two connectors that supports four IDE devices in two chan-
nels, provides faster data transfer rates, and supports Enhanced IDE devices
such as Tape Backup and CD-ROM drives. This controller supports PIO Modes
3 and 4 and Bus Master IDE DMA Mode 2. BIOS supports IDE CD-ROM
boot-up.
•
• Optional IrDA Module: This baseboard supports an optional infrared port
module for wireless file transfers and communication.
• NCR SCSI BIOS: This baseboard has firmware that supports the optional
ASUS PCI-SC200 SCSI controller cards.
