CPU Frequency Multiple (when CPU Speed is set to [Manual]) This field sets the frequency multiple between the CPU's internal frequency (CPU speed) and external frequency. Set this field in conjunction with CPU Frequency (MHz) to match the speed of the CPU. The item CPU Frequency Multiple is accessible only if you have an unlocked processor. If your processor frequency multiple is locked, you cannot change the setting of this item. CPU External Frequency (MHz) (when CPU Speed is set to [Manual]) This feature tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the system bus and PCI bus. The bus frequency (external frequency) multiplied by the bus multiple equals the CPU speed. 2-16 Chapter 2: BIOS information

Chapter 2: BIOS information
CPU External Frequency (MHz)
(when CPU Speed is set to [Manual])
This feature tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the system bus
and PCI bus. The bus frequency (external frequency) multiplied by the bus multiple
equals the CPU speed.
Boot Up NumLock Status [On]
This field enables users to activate the Number Lock function upon system boot.
Configuration options: [Off] [On]
Keyboard Auto-Repeat Rate [12/Sec]
This controls the speed at which the system registers repeated keystrokes.
Options range from 6 to 30 characters per second. Configuration options: [6/Sec]
[8/Sec] [10/Sec] [12/Sec] [15/Sec] [20/Sec] [24/Sec] [30/Sec]
Keyboard Auto-Repeat Delay [1/4 Sec]
This field sets the time interval for displaying the first and second characters.
Configuration options: [1/4 Sec] [1/2 Sec] [3/4 Sec] [1 Sec]

Advanced Menu
CPU Speed [Manual]
The motherboard is set to JumperFree™ mode so this field allows you to select the
internal frequency of the CPU. Select [Manual] if you want to make changes to the
two subsequent fields. Note that selecting a frequency higher than the CPU
manufacturer recommends may cause the system to hang or crash.
CPU Frequency Multiple
(when CPU Speed is set to [Manual])
This field sets the frequency multiple between the CPU’s
internal frequency (CPU
speed) and external frequency. Set this field in conjunction with CPU Frequency
(MHz) to match the speed of the CPU.
The item
CPU Frequency Multiple
is accessible only if you have an unlocked
processor. If your processor frequency multiple is locked, you cannot change
the setting of this item.
