ERRATA
1. Audio Driver Creates a Popping Noise During Operating System
Startup
PROBLEM: The audio jack-sensing feature requires reading the impedance of the device connected to the
audio jack. A voltage is needed so a current can be measured, and the impedance is derived from the
voltage and current. The application of the voltage results in a popping noise that is emitted from the
speakers.
IMPLICATION: A popping noise from the speakers may be heard at the end of the operating system startup
tune, while loading Microsoft Windows operating systems.
WORKAROUND: None.
STATUS: This erratum will not be fixed.
2. Front Panel Audio Connector Signals Routed Incorrectly
PROBLEM: The front panel audio connector pin definition is not correct. Pin 4 is defined as +5 V and should
be ground. Pin 7 is defined as ground and should be +5V.
IMPLICATION: Front panel audio cards that route their +5 V rail to Pin 4 will not function correctly.
WORKAROUND: Front panel audio cards that require +5 V should route the +5 V rail to Pin 7.
STATUS: This erratum may be fixed in a future hardware revision.
3. PCI Slot 1 Cannot be Used With Long PCI Add-in Cards
PROBLEM: A tall capacitor is located 3 ¼ inches behind PCI slot 1.
IMPLICATION: PCI cards conforming to the PCI specification but exceed 8 inches in length, may not be
useable in PCI slot 1.
WORKAROUND: None.
STATUS: This erratum may be fixed in a future hardware revision.
