1. ATX, MicroATX, FlexATX, BTX, and NLX.
2. The Intel socket B (also called LGA1366) has 1366 pins.
3. 940 pins
4. The X58 chipset is better than the P45
5. North Bridge
6. Nvidia - SLI ( Scalable Link Interface ) AMD/ATi – CrossFire
7. 5 V and 3.3 V
8. The throughput's are the same, both are 250MB/ Sec per Lane in each direction.
9. 300 watts
10. 6 pin
11. 8-pin power supply connector
12. A riser card
13. Default Graphics port Best there was back then
14. PCI express x16 of course
15. To accommodate small riser cards, such as a modem riser card, audio riser card, or network riser card.
16. Green
17. If your motherboard becomes unstable,or you lose some functions like a USB port stops working, or you are tyring to take advatage of a new feature or component then you might need to upgrade the ROM BIOS chip by flashing it.
18. By going to the manufacturers website and downloading the latest flash update.
19. Remove CMOS battery from system to reset it
20. BIOS
21. Hard boot is full start up, and soft boot is a restart or resume
22. The button-cell battery
23. The BIOS setup program can be access by pressing a key or combination of keys during the boot process. The exact way to enter setup varies from one motherboard manufacturer to another. Usually F2 or Delete but you must check your bootup screen
24. The key to this question is that it is "a port" not all the ports. Updating the BIOS is not likely the best answer. The book this question comes from actually has the answer but many people are not finding it because it is in a blue box. The answer is to disable the port in the BIOS or by jumper and add an expansion card.
25. The question clearly states that it is a SATA-style POWER connector, so it is not for SATA data cables. This type connector on a motherboard is to supply additional power for PCIe video cards.
enjoy, and thanks.
