Caution
Only the back panel USB, front panel USB, VGA, and PS/2 connectors have overcurrent protection. The D845GLLY boards' internal connectors 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 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, the interconnecting cable, and the external devices themselves.
Note:
When installing the Desktop Board in a microATX chassis, make sure that peripheral devices are installed at least 1.5 inches above the main power connector, the diskette drive connector, the IDE connector, and the DIMM sockets.
Back Panel I/O Connectors

Add-in Board and Peripheral Interface Connectors The figure below shows the location of the add-in board connectors and peripheral connectors. Note the following considerations for the PCI bus connectors: - All of the PCI bus connectors are bus-master capable.
- PCI bus connector 2 has SMBus signals routed to it which enables PCI bus add-in boards with SMBus support to access sensor data on the board. The specific SMBus signals are as follows:
- The SMBus clock line is connected to pin A40
- The SMBus data line is connected to pin A41

Note:
Not all PCI video cards can be used in PCI bus connectors 1 and 2 (the PCI bus connectors closest to the processor). To avoid clearance problems, install PCI video cards in PCI bus connector 3.
