Virtualization Technology (Available when supported by the CPU)

Select  Enabled  to  use  the  feature  of  Virtualization  Technology  to  allow  one  plat-

form to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions, 

creating  multiple  virtual  systems  in  one  computer.  The  options  are  Enabled  and 

Disabled

.    If  there  is  any  change  to  this  setting,  you  will  need  to  power  off  and 

restart  the  system  for  the  change  to  take  effect.)  Please  refer  to  Intel’s  web  site 

(www.intel.com) for detailed information.

u

Advanced Chipset Control

Access the submenu to make changes to the following settings.

Warning: 

Take  caution  when  changing  the Advanced  settings. An  Incorrect 

value, a very high DRAM frequency or an incorrect DRAM timing may cause 

system to become unstable. When this occurs, reset the setting to the default 

setting.

Clock Spectrum Feature

If Enabled, BIOS will  monitor the level of Electromagnetic Interference caused by 

the  components  and  will  attempt  to  decrease  the  interference  whenever  needed. 

The options are Enabled and 

Disabled

Memory Remapping

This  feature  allows  the  bios  reserve  memories  to  remap  the  memory  above  the 

4GB  to  5GB  area  when  using  4GB  of  memory.  The  settings  are 

Enabled

  and 

Disabled.

High Precision Event Timer

Select Yes to activate this feature which is capable of producing periodic interrupts 

at  a  much  higher  frequency  than  a  Real-time  Clock  (RTC)  can  in  synchronizing 

multimedia streams, providing smooth playback and reducing the dependency on 

other timestamp calculation devices, such as an X86 RDTSC Instruction embedded 

in a CPU. THe High Precision Event Timer is used to replace the 8254 Prorammable 

Interval Timer. The options are Yes and 

No.

Legacy USB Support

This  feature  enables  support  for  legacy  universal  serial  bus.  The  options  are 

En-

abled

 and Disabled.
