Description
NOTE: The default setting for
In-System
Characterization
is subject to change in
future BIOS releases.
When enabled, In-System Characterization (ISC)
executes during POST upon detecting relevant
change(s) in system configuration to optimize
system power and performance. ISC takes about
20 seconds to execute, and system reset is
required for ISC results to be applied. The
Enabled
- No Reboot
option executes ISC and continues
without applying ISC results until the next time
system reset occurs. The
Enabled
option executes
ISC and forces an immediate system reset so that
ISC results can be applied. It takes the system
longer to be ready due to the forced system reset.
When disabled, ISC does not execute.
