English VPU Recover : VPU Recover enables the ATI display driver to detect when the graphics processor stops responding to display-driver instructions. When this happens, the display driver attempts to reset the graphics hardware. In most cases, VPU Recover will be able to reset the graphics processor without requiring a system restart. Should the computer be unable to recover from a crash, VPU Recover will switch the computer to software rendering mode, allowing you to save any work in progress before restarting the computer. „ Enable VPU Recover „ Prepare an error report if VPU Recover is activated, for submission to ATI Technologies. Allows the VPU Recover, once it is activated, to generate an error report that you can send to ATI via e-mail. ATI Overdrive : VUse the ATI OverdriveTM aspect to maximize the performance of the graphics processing unit (GPU) on your graphics card. An on-chip thermal sensor constantly monitors the temperature of the GPU allowing the maximum clock speed to be maintained while avoiding overheating. If the GPU gets too hot, the ATI Overdrive aspect will automatically decrease the clock speed until a safe temperature is reached. The ATI Overdrive aspect will never reduce the graphics processor speed below the default clock speed. GV-RC19T512B-RH Graphics Accelerator - 30 -
