CPU Clock Ratio
This field is used to select the frequency ratio of the processor.
However, the frequency ratio of some processors has been fixed by
the manufacturer. If you are using this kind of processor, the setting in
this field will have no effect.
CPU/PCI Clock (MHz)
This field is used to select the external system bus clock of the
processor. The PCI clock will at the same time appear next to the
external bus clock selected. For example, if you selected “66.8/33.4”,
66.8MHz is the external bus clock and 33.4MHz is the PCI clock.
Regardless of the type of processor used, the default setting is
“Default”. Under this setting, the system will run according to the
processor’s clock frequency.
If, in the "CPU Clock Ratio" or "CPU/PCI Clock (MHz)" field, you
selected an option other than the default setting and is unable to
boot up the system, there are 2 methods of booting up the system
and going back to its default setting.
