Chapter 8 System Monitor Utility
This chapter introduces System Monitor Utility that comes with the
motherboard in conjunction with the onboard hardware monitoring IC.
The sections below give the functions of the utility.
System Monitor is a utility that oversee the general performance of
systems, covering areas like system temperature, system voltage, CPU and
system fan rotational speeds. If conditions become adversed, that is, when
voltages are erratic or CPU temperature exceeds the safe limits, an alarm
will be sounded; thereby preventing system crashing and ensuring overall
stability.
NOTE: System Monitor currently supports English and Chinese under
Windows 95 and Windows NT. English will be used for other language
environments.
When System Monitor is initiated, the icon below appears in the task bar
in the Windows environment.
