Desktop Board Features
Wake from USB
NOTE
Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB and an operating system that supports Wake from USB.
USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3 state.

ENERGY STAR* Capable
In 2007, the US Department of Energy and the US Environmental Protection Agency revised the ENERGY STAR requirements. Intel worked directly with these two governmental agencies to define the new requirements. Currently Intel Desktop Boards are capable of meeting the new ENERGY STAR requirements depending upon system configuration.
Go to the following link for information and recommendations concerning the new ENERGY STAR requirements: http://www3.intel.com/cd/channel/reseller/asmo- na/eng/337748.htm.
Onboard Power Button
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedure described in this section only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the computer chassis.
A power button on the Desktop Board (see Figure 5) can be used to turn the computer on or off. This button is intended for use at integration facilities to remove standby power before making changes to the system configuration, or for testing purposes. The power button on the front panel is recommended for all other instances of turning the computer on or off. To turn off the computer using the onboard power button, keep the button pressed down for three seconds.
