CPU Features

Delay Prior to thermal

This feature controls the activation of the Thermal Monitor's automatic 
mode. It allows you to determine when the Pentium 4's Thermal Monitor 
should be activated in automatic mode after the system boots. For exam-
ple, with the default value of 16 Minutes, the BIOS activates the Thermal 
Monitor in automatic mode 16 minutes after the system starts booting up. 
The choices are 4 Min, 8 Min, 16 Min, and 32 Min.

Limit CPUID MaxVal

Set Limit CPUID MaxVa1 to 3. This should be disabled for WinXP.

Execute Disable Bit

When disabled, forces the XD feature flag to always return 0.
