Quick BIOS Setup
This motherboard does not use any hardware jumpers to set the CPU frequency. Instead, CPU settings
are software configurable with the BIOS
[SOYO COMBO FEATURE].
The [SOYO COMBO
FEATURE] combines the main parameters that you need to configure, all in one menu, for a quick
setup in BIOS.
After the hardware installation is complete, turn the power switch on, then press the
<DEL>
key during the
system diagnostic checks to enter the Award BIOS Setup program. The CMOS SETUP UTILITY will be
shown on the screen. Then, follow these steps to configure the CPU settings.
Step 1.
Select [STANDARD CMOS SETUP]
Set [Date/Time] and [Floppy drive type], then set [Hard Disk Type] to “Auto”.
Step 2.
Select [LOAD OPTIMIZED DEFAULTS]
Select the “LOAD OPTIMIZED DEFAULTS” menu and type “Y” at the prompt to load the BIOS optimal
setup.
Step 3.
Select [SOYO COMBO FEATURE]
Set the
[CPU Frequency Mode]
to manual to overclock your CPU.
To overclock your CPU’s Front Side Bus,
[Frequency 1MHz Stepping]
enables you to overclock in
1MHz increment or you can input the desired FSB value of the CPU.
[CPU to PCI Divider]
determines the speed of your PCI slot is at. The default should be /4 if your CPU
FSB is 133MHz.
Set the
[DRAM Clock]
to 100/133/166/200 MHz or By SPD, depending on the DDR Clock. If you
overclock your CPU’s Front Side Bus, it overclocks your DDR Clock as well.
Note:
BIOS can auto detect the Front Side Bus of XP and Morgan CPU. If you have a 133MHz FSB
Thunderbird CPU, you need to manually set the CPU Frequency mode in the BIOS.
DDRAM clock speed should not be lower than the CPU speed.
13.0x or above multiplier option in the
[CPU Ratio Select]
will only work with CPU with 13.0x
or above multiplier
SOYO is not responsible for damage done in your CPU or system instability due to
overclocking.
Step 4.
Select [SAVE & EXIT SETUP]
Press
<Enter>
to save the new configuration to the CMOS memory, and continue the boot sequence.
