v
Set max Ext CPUID=3 - An option added specifically for Windows NT
®
. Newer
microprocessors return a value > 3 when queried by the CPUID instruction
maximum value supported with its extensions. Windows NT will hang during
install when it makes the CPUID query if it gets a value > 3. Enabling this
option will cause the value returned to be ’3’ so NT will work.
v
Processor Power Management - Controls Power Management Features
supported by the microprocessor/chipset combination. When enabled, it allows
the processor to enter lower power states when deemed appropriate by
microprocessor.
v
Fan Acoustics - Three choices (High, Normal, Quiet) so user can select whether
fan acoustics or system performance is more important. High will allow fans to
run faster (louder) to reduce chance to processor throttling. Quiet will run fans
at a slower speed (quieter) but may result in processor throttling if temperatures
get high.

Utility program menu (you might have to press Esc several times). If you want to
