way to integrate power management features throughout a 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.
In addition to operating system-directed power management, ACPI also provides
a generic system event mechanism for Plug and Play, and an operating system-
BIOS data structures, while providing a processor architecture-independent imple-
mentation that is compatible with Windows 8/R2, and Windows 2012/R2 Operating
Systems.
1-6 Power Supply
As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and
reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU
clock rates.
The X10DRC/i-LN4+/-T4+ motherboard accommodates 24-pin ATX power sup-
the CPU, some are inadequate. In addition, two 8-pin power connections are also
required to ensure adequate power supply to the system.
Warning! To avoid damaging the power supply or the motherboard, be sure to use
a power supply that contains a 24-pin and two 8-pin power connectors. Be sure to
connect the power supply to the 24-pin power connector (J24), and two 8-pin power
connectors (JPWR1, JPWR2) on the motherboard. Failure in doing so may void the
manufacturer warranty on your power supply and motherboard.
It is strongly recommended that you use a high quality power supply that meets ATX
information, please refer to the website at http://www.ssiforum.org/). Additionally, in
areas where noisy power transmission is present, you may choose to install a line
power surge protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.
