Even though the Dynamic Overclocking Technology is more stable than manual overclocking, basically, it is still risky. We suggest user to make sure that your CPU can afford to overclock regularly first. If you find the PC appears to be unstable or reboot incidentally, it's better to disable the Dynamic Overclocking or to lower the level of overclocking options. By the way, if you need to conduct overclocking manually, you also need to disable the Dynamic OverClocking first. 2. Meanwhile, there are two functions to protect user's system from crashing. - There is a safe key "Ins" in BIOS. In case the overclocking fails, you can press "Ins" key while system rebooting to restore to the BIOS defaults. - If the system incidentally reboot for four times, the BIOS will also be restored to the defaults. Adjust CPU FSB Frequency This item allows you to select the CPU Front Side Bus clock frequency (in MHz) and overclock the processor by adjusting the FSB clock to a higher frequency. Setting options: For CPU FSB200: [200]~[500] For CPU FSB133: [133]~[500] CPU Ratio CMOS Setting This item allows you to adjust the CPU ratio. Setting to [Startup] enables the CPU running at the fastest speed which is detected by system. Adjusted CPU Clock This read-only item shows the CPU Clock you like to use, which will automatically change in accordance with the settings of Adjust CPU FSB Frequency and CPU Ratio CMOS Setting. Please note you must reboot the system to let the change take effect. Adjust DDR Memory Frequency When it is set to [Manual] in High Performance Mode, user can place an artificial memory clock limit on the system. Please note that memory is prevented from running faster than this frequency. Setting options: For DDR1: [Auto], [333], [400]. For DDR2: [Auto], [400], [533]. 3-22

Meanwhile, there are two functions to protect user's system from

-
There is a safe key "Ins" in BIOS. In case the overclocking
fails, you can press "Ins" key while system rebooting to
restore to the BIOS defaults.
-
If the system incidentally reboot for four times, the BIOS will
also be restored to the defaults.
