Intel® Desktop Board CA810E
Last known issues

Microsoft Windows* 98 shows "Unknown Device" under Panel/System/Device Manager/Other devices
The unknown device is the Random Number Generator (RNG) feature of the Firmware Hub (FWH). In order for this feature to be recognized, you need to install the "Intel Security Driver" that is located on the CA810E CD-ROM, or you can download the driver.

Note: The Intel Web site refers to this driver as the "INTEL 82802 FIRMWARE_HUB Driver Version ISD_Release for Windows* 95(OSR 2.1), Windows 98, and Windows NT* 4.0."

Instantly available and STR (Suspend to RAM)
The Intel® Desktop Board CA810E supports STR but the Operating System (OS) and the applications being used must also support STR. Operating Systems and applications that do not support STR can cause problems when coming out of different sleep states.

ATA-66 support
The Intel® 810E Chipset supports both Ultra ATA transfer rates (i.e. 33 MB/sec and 66 MB/sec). To realize a true throughput performance difference, a hard drive may need to implement higher spindle speeds, such as 7200 RPM, and a large onboard buffer size to take advantage of the increased bandwidth available on the IDE channel.

Intel Desktop Board CA810E uses 1 MB of system memory at bootup for the VGA display
The Intel Desktop Board CA810E uses 1 MB of system memory at bootup for the VGA display. The motherboard can support minimum system memory configurations of 32 MB and a maximum configuration of 512 MB.

Power supply requirements
The Intel® Desktop Board CA810E is designed to operate with at least a 145-watt power supply for typical system configurations. A higher-wattage supply may be required for heavily loaded configurations. Additionally, if the power supply cannot supply sufficient current and does not have overload protection, the power supply may be damaged.

Note: If a Wake-On-LAN (WOL) capable network card is installed, the power supply must provide +5 VSB with 720ma of current (see the ATX2.01 or later specification) . If the power supply does not provide sufficient current, some system configurations with the Intel Desktop Board CA810E may not power up.
