Intel® 945GME Express Chipset—Getting Started

2.0Getting Started

This chapter identifies the evaluation kit’s key components, features and specifications. It also details basic board setup and operation.

2.1Overview

The evaluation board consists of a baseboard populated with the Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo processor and the Intel® 945GME Express Chipset, other system board components, and peripheral connectors.

Note: The evaluation board is shipped as an open system allowing for maximum flexibility in changing hardware configuration and peripherals. Since the board is not in a protective chassis, take extra precaution when handling and operating the system.
