Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC system. 18. This motherboard supports ASRock AM2 Boost overclocking technology for AM2 CPU. If you enable this function in the BIOS setup, the memory performance will improve up to 12.5%, but the effect still depends on the AM2 CPU you adopt. Enabling this function will overclock the chipset/CPU reference clock. However, we can not guarantee the system stability for all CPU/DRAM configurations. If your system is unstable after AM2 Boost function is enabled, it may not be applicative to your system. You may choose to disable this function for keeping the stability of your system. 1 . 3 Minimum Hardware Requirement Table for Windows® VistaTM Premium 2008 and Basic Logo For system integrators and users who purchase this motherboard and plan to submit Windows® VistaTM Premium 2008 and Basic logo, please follow below table for minimum hardware requirement.
