4.2 System Health Monitor Utility

The system board comes with a System Health Monitor utility

contained in the provided CD. This utility shows the current

temperature of the processor, power voltages, and CPU/AGP fan

speed.

The utility also allows you to manually set the range of the

processor’s temperature, power voltages, and CPU/AGP fan speed. If

the settings/values are over or under the set range, an error

message will pop-up and an alarm will sound. There are three types

of sound for the three different failure alarms (temperature, voltage

and fan). Refer to the Chipset Features Setup (Chapter 3) section

for details.

When you hear a failure alarm, you must power off your computer

and check the following: processor fan/heatsink, AGP fan and power

supply. We recommend that you use the “Default Setting” which is

the ideal setting that would keep the system in good working

condition.
