memory sequentially. Data is spread amongst the memory modules in an alternating
pattern.
Three independent memory channels give two possible modes of interleaving:
o Tri-Channel Mode: Enabled when identical matched memory modules are installed
in each of the three memory channels (blue connectors).
o Dual-Channel Mode: Enabled when two of the blue memory connectors are
populated with matched DIMMs.
Single-Channel (Asymmetric) Mode: Equivalent to single-channel bandwidth operation
for real world applications. This mode is used when only a single DIMM is installed or the
installed memory modules are not matched. Technology and device width can vary from
one channel to the other.

maximum transfer rate of 3 Gb/s per port. You can install one device on each port for a
maximum of six Serial ATA devices. Unlike a Parallel ATA IDE, which supports a master/slave
configuration and two devices per channel, a point-to-point interface is used for host to device
connections.
For compatibility, the underlying Serial ATA functionality is transparent to the operating system.
The Serial ATA controller can operate in both legacy and native modes. In Legacy mode,
standard IDE I/O and IRQ resources are assigned (IRQ 14 and 15). In Native mode, standard
PCI Conventional bus resource steering is used. Native mode is the preferred mode for
configurations using Microsoft Windows XP* and Microsoft Windows Vista* operating systems.
Note: Many Serial ATA drives use new low-voltage power connectors and require adapters or
power supplies equipped with low-voltage power connectors.
For more information, see: http://www.serialata.org/.

1.12.1.1 System States and Power States
Under ACPI, the operating system directs all system and device power state transitions. The
operating system puts devices in and out of low-power states based on user preferences and
knowledge of how devices are being used by applications. You can turn-off devices that are not
being used. The operating system uses information from applications and user settings to put
the system as a whole into a low-power state.
Table 10 lists the power states supported by the board along with the associated system power
targets. For a complete description of the various system and power states, refer to the ACPI

1.12.2.3 LAN Wake Capabilities
CAUTION
For LAN wake capabilities, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing
adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing
LAN wake capabilities can damage the power supply.
LAN wake capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network. The LAN
subsystem PCI bus network adapter monitors network traffic at the Media Independent
Interface. Upon detecting a Magic Packet* frame, the LAN subsystem asserts a wake-up signal
that powers up the computer. Depending on the LAN implementation, the board supports LAN
wake capabilities with ACPI in the following ways:
PCI Express* WAKE# signal
PCI bus PME# signal for PCI 2.3 compliant LAN designs
o By Ping
o Magic Packet

1.12.2.4 Instantly Available PC Technology
CAUTION
For Instantly Available PC technology, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable
of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when
implementing Instantly Available PC technology can damage the power supply.
Instantly Available PC technology enables the board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-to-RAM)
sleep-state. While in the S3 sleep-state, the computer appears to be off (the power supply is off
and the front panel LED is amber if dual-colored, or off if single-colored.) When signaled by a
wake-up device or event, the system quickly returns to its last known wake state. Table 11 lists
the devices and events that can wake the computer from the S3 state.
The board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification. Add-in boards that
also support this specification can participate in power management and can be used to wake
the computer.
The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and PCI 2.2
compliant add-in cards, PCI Express* add-in cards, and drivers.
1.12.2.5 Wake from USB
USB bus activity wakes the computer from ACPI S1 or S3 states.
Note: Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB.
1.12.2.6 PME# Signal Wake-up Support
When the PME# signal on the PCI Conventional bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an
ACPI S1, S3, S4, or S5 state (with Wake on PME enabled in the BIOS).
1.12.2.7 WAKE# Signal Wake-up Support
When the WAKE# signal on the PCI Express bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an
ACPI S1, S3, S4, or S5 state.

2. Technical Reference
2.1 Memory Resources
2.1.1 Addressable Memory
This board uses 16 GB of addressable system memory. Typically, the address space allocated
for PCI Conventional bus add-in cards, PCI Express* configuration space, BIOS (SPI Flash
device), and chipset overhead resides above the top of DRAM (total system memory). On a
system with 16 GB of system memory installed, it is not possible to use all of the installed
memory due to system address space being allocated for other system-critical functions. These
functions include the following:
1. BIOS/SPI Flash device (16 Mbit)
2. Local APIC (19 MB)
3. Direct Media Interface (40 MB)
4. Front side bus interrupts (17 MB)
5. PCI Express* configuration space (256 MB)
6. IOH base address registers PCI Express* ports (up to 256 MB)
7. Memory-mapped I/O that is dynamically allocated for PCI Conventional and PCI
Express* add-in cards (256 MB)
The board provides the capability to reclaim the physical memory overlapped by the memory
mapped I/O logical address space. The board remaps physical memory from the top of usable
DRAM boundary to the 4 GB boundary to an equivalent-sized logical address range located just
above the 4 GB boundary. Figure 8 shows a schematic of the system memory map. You can
use all installed system memory when there is no overlap of system addresses.

2.2 Connectors and Headers
CAUTION
Only the following connectors and headers have overcurrent protection: back panel and front panel
USB, and IEEE 1394a.
The other internal connectors and headers are not overcurrent protected and should connect only
to devices inside the computer’s chassis, such as fans and internal peripherals. Do not use these
connectors or headers to power devices external to the computer’s chassis. A fault in the load
presented by the external devices could cause damage to the computer, power cable, and external
devices themselves.
Furthermore, improper connection of USB or 1394 header single wire connectors may eventually
overload the overcurrent protection and cause damage to the board.

2.2.2.3 Power Supply Connectors
The board has the following power supply connectors:
Main power A 2 x 12 connector. The board supports the use of ATX12V power
supplies with either 2 x 10 or 2 x 12 main power cables. When using a power supply with
a 2 x 10 main power cable, attach that cable on the right-most pins of the main power
connector, leaving pins 11, 12, 23, and 24 unconnected.
Processor core power A 2 x 4 connector. This connector provides power directly to
the processor voltage regulator and must always be used. Failure to do so prevents the
board from booting.
CAUTION
If high power (75 W or greater) add-in cards are installed in either or both the Secondary PCI
Express* x16 and the PCI Express* x4 bus add-in card connectors, you must use the Auxiliary PCI
Express* graphics power connector. Failure to do so may cause damage to the board and the add-
in cards.

2.5 Electrical Considerations
2.5.1 Power Supply Considerations
CAUTION
The +5 V standby line from the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby
current. Failure to do so can damage the power supply. The total amount of standby current
required depends on the wake devices supported and manufacturing options.
Additional power required depends on configurations selected by the integrator.
The power supply must comply with the indicated parameters of the ATX form factor
specification.

2.6 Thermal Considerations
CAUTION
A chassis with a maximum internal ambient temperature of 38o C at the processor fan inlet is a
requirement. Use a processor heatsink that provides omni-directional airflow to maintain required
airflow across the processor voltage regulator area.
CAUTION
Failure to ensure appropriate airflow may result in reduced performance of both the processor
and/or voltage regulator or, in some instances, damage to the board. All responsibility for
determining the adequacy of any thermal or system design remains solely with the reader. Intel
makes no warranties or representations that merely following the instructions presented in this
document will result in a system with adequate thermal performance.
CAUTION
Ensure that the ambient temperature does not exceed the board’s maximum operating
temperature. Failure to do so could cause components to exceed their maximum case temperature
and malfunction. For information about the maximum operating temperature, see the environmental
specifications in Section 2.8.
Technical Reference Intel® Workstation Board WX58BP TPS
Revision 1.2

CAUTION
Ensure that proper airflow is maintained in the processor voltage regulator circuit. Failure to do so
may result in damage to the voltage regulator circuit. The processor voltage regulator area (Figure
16) can reach a temperature of up to 85°C in an open chassis.

3. Overview of BIOS Features
3.1 Introduction
The board uses an Intel BIOS stored in the Serial Peripheral Interface Flash Memory (SPI
Flash) that you can update using a disk-based program. The SPI Flash contains the BIOS
Setup program, POST, PCI auto-configuration utility, LAN EEPROM information, and Plug and
Play support.
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code.
The initial production BIOSs are identified as BPX5810J.86A.
When the BIOS Setup configuration jumper is set to configure mode and the computer is
powered-up, the BIOS compares the CPU version and the microcode version in the BIOS and
reports if the two match.
You can use the BIOS Setup program to view and change the BIOS settings for the computer.
You access the BIOS Setup program by pressing the <F2> key after the Power-On Self-Test
(POST) memory test begins but before the operating system boot begins. The menu bar is
shown:
Note: The maintenance menu displays only when the board is in Configure mode. Section 2.3
shows how to put the board in Configure mode.

3.2 BIOS Flash Memory Organization
The Serial Peripheral Interface Flash Memory (SPI Flash) includes a 16-Mbit (2048 KB) flash
memory device.
3.3 Resource Configuration
3.3.1 PCI Auto-configuration
The BIOS can automatically configure PCI devices. PCI devices may be onboard or add-in
cards. Auto-configuration lets a user insert or remove PCI cards without having to configure the
system. When a user turns on the system after adding a PCI card, the BIOS automatically
configures interrupts, I/O space, and other system resources. Any interrupts set to Available in
the Setup are considered to be available for use by the add-in card.

3.4 System Management BIOS (SMBIOS)
SMBIOS is a Desktop Management Interface (DMI) compliant method for managing computers
in a managed network.
The main component of SMBIOS is the Management Information Format (MIF) database, which
contains information about the computing system and its components. Using SMBIOS, a system
administrator can obtain the system types, capabilities, operational status, and installation dates
for system components. The MIF database defines the data and provides the method for
accessing this information.
The BIOS enables applications such as third-party management software to use SMBIOS. The
BIOS stores and reports the following SMBIOS information:
BIOS data, such as the BIOS revision level
Fixed-system data, such as peripherals, serial numbers, and asset tags
Resource data, such as memory size, cache size, and processor speed
Dynamic data, such as event detection and error logging
Non-Plug and Play operating systems require an additional interface for obtaining the SMBIOS
information. The BIOS supports an SMBIOS table interface for such operating systems. Using
this support, an SMBIOS service-level application running on a non-Plug and Play operating
system can obtain the SMBIOS information. You can find additional board information in the

drivers are not yet available. Legacy USB support is used to access the BIOS Setup program,
and to install an operating system that supports USB. By default, Legacy USB support is set to
Enabled.
Legacy USB support operates as follows:
1. When you apply power to the computer, legacy support is disabled.
2. POST begins.
3. Legacy USB support is enabled by the BIOS allowing you to use a USB keyboard to
enter and configure the BIOS Setup program and the maintenance menu.
4. POST completes.
5. The operating system loads. While the operating system is loading, USB keyboards
and mice are recognized, which you can use to configure the operating system. (If
Legacy USB support was set to Disabled in the BIOS Setup program, keyboards and
mice are not recognized during this period.)
6. After the operating system loads the USB drivers, all legacy and non-legacy USB
devices are recognized by the operating system. Legacy USB support from the BIOS
is no longer used. You can access additional USB legacy feature options by using the
Intel® Integrator Toolkit.
To install an operating system that supports USB, verify Legacy USB support in the BIOS Setup

3.7 BIOS Recovery
It is unlikely anything will interrupt a BIOS update; however, if an interruption occurs, the BIOS
could be damaged. Table 34 lists the drives and media types you can and cannot use for BIOS
recovery. The BIOS recovery media does not need to be made bootable.

3.8 Boot Options
In the BIOS Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a diskette drive, hard drive, USB
drive, USB flash drive, CD-ROM, or the network. The default setting is for the diskette drive to
be the first boot device; the hard drive second; and the ATAPI CD-ROM third. If enabled, the
last default boot device is the network.
3.8.1 CD-ROM Boot
Booting from CD-ROM is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable CD-ROM format
specification. Under the Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program, ATAPI CD-ROM is listed as a
boot device. Boot devices are defined in priority order. Accordingly, if there is not a bootable CD
in the CD-ROM drive, the system attempts to boot from the next defined drive.
3.8.2 Network Boot
You can select the network as a boot device. This selection allows booting from the onboard
LAN or a network add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed.
Pressing the <F12> key during POST automatically forces booting from the LAN. To use this
key during POST, you must set the User Access Level in the BIOS Setup program's Security
menu to Full.
3.8.3 Booting Without Attached Devices
For use in embedded applications, the BIOS was designed so that after passing the POST, the
operating system loader is invoked even if the following devices are not present:
Video adapter
Keyboard
Mouse
3.8.4 Changing the Default Boot Device During POST
Pressing the <F10> key during POST causes a boot device menu to display. This menu

3.9 Adjusting Boot Speed
These factors affect system boot speed:
Selecting and configuring peripherals properly
Optimized BIOS boot parameters
3.9.1 Peripheral Selection and Configuration
The following techniques help improve system boot speed:

seconds that minimize hard drive startup delays.
Select a CD-ROM drive with a fast initialization rate. This rate can influence POST
execution time.
Eliminate unnecessary add-in adapter features, such as logo displays, screen repaints,
or mode changes in POST. These features may add time to the boot process.
Try different monitors. Some monitors initialize and communicate with the BIOS more
quickly, which enables the system to boot more quickly.
3.9.2 BIOS Boot Optimizations
Use of the following BIOS Setup program settings reduces the POST execution time.
In the Boot Menu, set the hard disk drive as the first boot device. As a result, the POST
does not first seek a diskette drive, which saves about one second from the POST
execution time.
In the Peripheral Configuration submenu, disable the LAN device if it will not be used.
This can reduce up to four seconds of option ROM boot time.
Note: It is possible to optimize the boot process to the point where the system boots so quickly
that you do not see the Intel logo screen (or a custom logo splash screen). Monitors and hard
disk drives with minimum initialization times can also contribute to a boot time that might be so
fast that you cannot see necessary logo screens and POST messages. This boot time may be
so fast that some drives might be not be initialized at all. If this condition occurs, it is possible to
introduce a programmable delay ranging from zero to 30 seconds using 5-second increments
(using the Hard Disk Pre-Delay feature of the Advanced Menu in the Drive Configuration
Submenu of the BIOS Setup program).

3.10 BIOS Security Features
The BIOS includes security features that restrict access to the BIOS Setup program and who
can boot the computer. You can set the supervisor password and a user password for the BIOS
Setup program and for booting the computer, with the following restrictions:
Supervisor Mode: The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and
change all the Setup options in the BIOS Setup program.
User Mode: The user password gives restricted access to view and change Setup
options in the BIOS Setup program.
If only the supervisor password is set, pressing the <Enter> key at the password prompt
of the BIOS Setup program allows the user restricted access to Setup.
If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, users can enter either the s upervisor
password or the user password to access Setup. Users have access to Setup respective
to which password is entered.
Setting the user password restricts who can boot the computer. Before the computer is
booted, the password prompt displays. If only the supervisor password is set, the
computer boots without asking for a password. If both passwords are set, the user can
enter either password to boot the computer.
For enhanced security, use different passwords for the supervisor and user passwords.
Valid password characters are A-Z, a-z, and 0-9. Passwords may be up to 16 characters
in length.
Table 36 shows the effects of setting the supervisor password and user password. This table is
for reference only and does not display on the screen.

4.4 Port 80h POST Codes
During the POST, the BIOS generates diagnostic progress codes (POST codes) to I/O port 80h.
If the POST fails, execution stops and the last POST code generated is left at port 80h. This
code is useful for determining the point where an error occurred.
Displaying the POST codes requires a PCI bus add-in card, often called a POST card. The
POST card can decode the port and display the contents on a medium such as a seven-
segment display.
Note: You must install the POST card in PCI bus connector 1.
The following tables provide information about the POST codes generated by the BIOS:
Table 39 lists the Port 80h POST code ranges.
Table 40 lists the Port 80h POST codes themselves.
Table 41 lists the Port 80h POST sequence.
Note: In the tables listed previously, all POST codes and range values are listed in
hexadecimal.

5.1.3.3 Lead Free Workstation Board
This Intel® Workstation Board is a European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (EU
RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC) compliant product. EU RoHS restricts the use of six materials. One
of the six restricted materials is lead.
This Intel® Workstation Board is lead free although certain discrete components used on the
board contain a small amount of lead which is necessary for component performance and/or
reliability. This Intel® Workstation B-
The board substrate and the solder connections from the board to the components (second-
level connections) are all lead free.
China bans the same substances and has the same limits as EU RoHS; however it requires
different product marking and controlled substance information. The required mark shows the
Environmental Friendly Usage Period (EFUP). The EFUP is defined as the number of years for
which controlled listed substances will not leak or chemically deteriorate while in the product.
