Hardware Support
Fan Header
The Desktop Board has a 3-pin system fan header. See Figure 10 on page 34 for the
location of the system fan header.
+5 V Standby Power Indicator
CAUTION
If the AC power has been switched off and the standby power indicator is still lit,
disconnect the power cord before installing or removing any devices connected to the
board. Failure to do so could damage the board and any attached devices.
The Desktop Board’s standby power indicator, shown in Figure 4, is lit when there is
standby power to the system. This includes the SO-DIMM sockets and the PCI bus
connector, even though the computer appears to be off.
