For example, if you have a processor that is rated to run at 450 MHz
and the system is running a frontside bus frequency of 100 MHz, you
should select a multiplier of 4.5 so that:
4.5 (Multiplier) x 100 MHz (frontside bus) = 450 MHz (CPU clock)
Load Fail-Safe Defaults Option
This option opens a dialog box that lets you install fail -safe
defaults for all appropriate items in the Setup Utility. Press <Y>
and then <Enter> to install the defaults. Press <N> and then
<Enter> to not install the defaults. The fail-safe defaults place no
great demands on the system and are generally stable. If your
system is not functioning correctly, try installing the fail-safe
defaults as a first step in getting your system working properly
again. If you only want to install fail-safe defaults for a specific
option, select and display that option, and then press <F6>.
Load Optimized Defaults Option
This option opens a dialog box that lets you install optimized
defaults for all appropriate items in the Setup Utility. Press <Y>
and then <Enter> to install the defaults. Press <N> and then
<Enter> to not install the defaults. The optimized defaults place
demands on the system that may be greater than the
performance level of the components, such as the CPU and the
memory. You can cause fatal errors or instability if you install the
optimized defaults when your hardware does not support them.
If you only want to install setup defaults for a specific option,
select and display that option, and then press <F7>.
