Appendix: Advanced BIOS Setup
This section will introduce you the following BIOS Setup menus: “Advanced,”
“Security,” “Power,” “Boot,” and “Exit.”
1. Advanced BIOS Setup Menu
Spread Spectrum:
This field should always set to [Disabled] for better system
stability.
CPU Host Frequency:
This shows current CPU host frequency of the installed
motherboard.
CPU Ratio Selection:
CPU Ratio is the multiple that times the frontside bus
frequency will equal the core speed of the installed processor. Whether the
option is open or locked is determined by the installed processor.
DRAM Frequency:
If [Auto]
is selected, the motherboard will detect the memory
module(s) inserted and assigns appropriate frequency automatically. You can
also select other value as operating frequency: [100MHz <DDR200>],
[133MHz <DDR266>], [166MHz <DDR333>], [200MHz <DDR400>].
Hyper-Threading Technology:
To enable this feature, it requires a computer
system with an Intel Pentium
®
4 processor that supports Hyper-Threading
technology and an operating system that includes optimization for this technology,
such as Microsoft
®
Windows
®
XP. Set to [Auto] if using Microsoft
®
Windows
®
XP, or Linux kernel version 2.4.18 or higher. This option will be hidden if the
current CPU does not support Hyper-Threading technology.
