Award BIOS Setup Utility
Front Side Bus Frequency
The default is Auto. FSB will automatically set the bus speed according
to the FSB of the processor. The other options are: 66MHz, 68MHz,
75MHz, 83MHz, 100MHz, 103MHz, 112MHz and 133MHz.
CPU Core Ratio
This field allows you to set the core ratio of your processor. The default
is 3.5x. The other options are: 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x, 3x, 4x, 4.5x, 5x, 5.5x, 6x,
6.5x, 7x, 7.5x and 8x.
Spread Spectrum
Leave this field in its default setting - Disabled. Do not alter this setting
unless advised by an engineer or technician.
SDRAM CAS Latency Time
The default setting is 3 which is 3 clock cycles for the CAS latency.
SDRAM Timing Control
By default, this field is set to Auto. If you want to improve the
memory speed, set this field to Fast. However, if you encounter
problems with this setting (Fast) or the system hangs, please set it
to Normal or Slow.
DRAM Data Integrity Mode
The system board supports EC and ECC (Error Checking and
Correction) functions. EC or ECC is supported only in x72 (72-bit) PC
SDRAM DIMMs. If you are using x64 (64-bit) PC SDRAM DIMMs, set
this field to Non-ECC.
Non-ECC
Uses x64 PC SDRAM DIMM.
EC
Only detects, but does not correct data errors.
ECC
This option allows the system to recover from memory
failure. It detects single-bit and multiple-bit errors, then
automatically corrects single-bit error.
