Intel Desktop Board D810E2CB

Intel FlexATX Socket 370 board for Pentium III/Celeron, based on the 810E2 chipset. The model-specific technical specification documents the standard board and its firmware identity.

Original local schematic of Intel D810E2CB with 810E2 graphics, two SDRAM sockets, PCI slots, and IDE
ORIGINAL LOCAL SCHEMATIC // NOT TO SCALE

Exact identity and revision: Intel Desktop Board D810E2CB; Intel Technical Product Specification revision 001 (January 2001), applicable to standard boards with BIOS identifier CB81010A.86A. Verify the actual AA/PCB marking and BIOS ID; the specification update governs documented errata.

Specifications

CPU / socket / chipsetSocket 370 Intel Pentium III/Celeron processors supported by the board/BIOS; Intel 810E2 with integrated graphics.
Form factor / caseFlexATX, 9 x 7.5 in. (228.6 x 190.5 mm); use a FlexATX chassis or verified ATX case with matching mounting and I/O clearance.
MemoryTwo 168-pin SDRAM DIMM sockets, 100-MHz non-ECC modules, up to 512 MB supported.
ExpansionTwo 32-bit PCI slots; no AGP slot.
StorageTwo IDE channels supporting ATA/100 and a floppy connector.
Rear I/OVGA, PS/2 keyboard/mouse, serial, parallel, two rear USB with two additional front-header USB ports, and audio; onboard LAN is an assembly option.
BIOS / PSUIntel standard BIOS identifier CB81010A.86A. 20-pin ATX power input; check the physical board, PSU pinout/rails, case wiring, and specification update before powering.

Compatibility and revision notes

FlexATX mounting and rear-I/O alignment differ from larger boards; measure the chassis and confirm the front USB header wiring. This chipset has integrated video but no AGP connector. Use 168-pin SDRAM within Intel's density limits, and only a CPU supported by the standard CB81010A.86A firmware/AA revision.
