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 [Enabled] if using Microsoft® Windows® XP, or Linux kernel version 2.4.18 or higher. This option will be hidden if the installed CPU does not support Hyper-Threading technology. Intel (R) SpeedStep(tm) tech. Intel (R) SpeedStep(tm) tech. is Intel's new power saving technology. Processor can switch between multiple frequency and voltage points to enable power savings. The default value is [Auto]. Configuration options: [Auto], [Enabled] and [Disabled]. If you install Windows® XP and select [Auto], you need to set the "Power Schemes" as "Portable/Laptop" to enable this function. If you install Windows® VistaTM and want to enable this function, please set this item to [Enabled]. This item will be hidden if the current CPU does not support Intel (R) SpeedStep(tm) tech.. Please note that enabling this function may reduce CPU voltage and lead to system stability or compatibility issue with some power supplies. Please set this item to [Disable] if above issue occurs. 3.4.2 Chipset Configuration BIOS SETUP UTILITY Advanced Chipset Configuration DRAM Frequency Flexibility Option DRAM tCL DRAM tRCD DRAM tRP DRAM tRAS Advanced DRAM Configuration Primary Graphics Adapter Internal Graphics Mode Select DVMT Mode Select DVMT/FIXED Memory OnBoard HD Audio Front Panel OnBoard Lan [Auto] [Disabled] [Auto] [Auto] [Auto] [Auto] [Auto] [PCI] [Auto] [DVMT Mode] [Maximum DVMT] [Auto] [Auto] [Enabled] Options Auto 200MHz 266MHz 333MHz (DDRII400) (DDRII533) (DDRII667) +F1 F9 F10 ESC Select Screen Select Item Change Option General Help Load Defaults Save and Exit Exit v02.54 (C) Copyright 1985-2005, American Megatrends, Inc.
