Installation Guide
function properly, while the Biostar motherboards need to detect the signal in
order to boot.
If your HP Vectra or Biostar system does not run properly with the PL-K6-III
installed, try using pin 9 of the SW1 DIP switch to turn the AL-1 pin signal on/off.
Pin 9 is set to ON by default--this setting allows Biostar systems to detect the pin
signal and boot. For HP Vectra systems, changing the switch setting to OFF will
disable the signal and allow the system to work properly.
Most systems (including most HP Vectra systems and
Biostar motherboards) will be unaffected by the pin AL-1
setting.

SW1: Pin 10 (CPU Overheating Protection)
Your PowerLeap CPU upgrade adapter offers a unique
CPU overheating protection
function that can prevent damage to your CPU if the temperature increases. When
this function is enabled, the CPU speed will automatically drop 60% if the CPU
temperature reaches 70
°
C or higher. This prevents the CPU from overheating.
Protection is enabled by default.
