Intel® Desktop Board D845BG
PCI Slot #6 Shared with CNR (Avoid Conflicts)

The Intel® Desktop Board D845BG provides (6) PCI local bus slots. PCI slots are identified as PCI slot #x, starting with the slot closest to the processor. The ATX/MicroATX specifications identify expansion slot locations with respect to the far edge of a full-sized ATX chassis. The ATX specification and the board's silkscreen are opposite and could cause confusion. The ATX numbering convention is made without respect to slot type (PCI vs. AGP), but refers to an actual slot location on a chassis.

The CNR slot located on the edge of the desktop board shares PCI slot #6. Avoid conflicts ' resource performance issues by not populating PCI slot #6 with add-in card if CNR is installed.
