HARDWARE MONITORING
(optional)
Winbond W83783S is designed on the board (refer to U2 on page 1-2) to monitor
hardware healthy status like system voltage, system temperature, and cooling fans.
When the hardware monitoring program is installed in the PC system, it will keep
monitoring the mainboard status. If there is something which is not working
normally, then you will receive a warning message on the screen display so that you
can take proper action to prevent your system from damage.
There is the hardware monitoring program in the CD which comes with this
mainboard. When you feel like to use the hardware monitoring feature to monitor
the mainboard healthy status, please refer section 3-5 for the installation procedure.
