1. Advanced BIOS Setup Menu
Spread Spectrum
This feature will be set to [Auto] as default.
CPU Host Frequency
[Auto]
It is recommended to select this option, which will let the CPU host frequency of
this motherboard determined by the jumper-setting.
[Manual]
This allows user to set CPU host frequency manually. However, because the
CPU host frequency of this motherboard is determined by the jumper-setting,
you must set the FSB jumper adjustment according to your AMD CPU before you
use this “Manual” option as the FSB setting in BIOS setup to perform over
clocking. This is not recommended unless you thoroughly know the feature.
Wrong setup may cause problems during operation.
Boot Failure Guard
Enable or disable the feature of Boot Failure Guard.
DRAM Frequency
If set to [Auto], the motherboard will detect the inserted memory module(s) and
automatically assign appropriate frequency. You may select other value as
operating frequency: [133MHz (DDR266)], [166MHz (DDR333)],
[200MHz (DDR400)].
Flexibility Option
The default value of this option is [Disabled]. It will allow better tolerance for
memory compatibility when it is set to [Enabled].
