CPU VCore Setting [Auto]

This field determines if the CPU Vcore is automatically scaled or set manually by the user. The default for this field is [Auto], so the CPU vcore voltage is set for maximum performance without stressing the CPU. Configuration options: [Manual] [Auto]

CPU VCore [1.850V]

When the CPU VCore Setting parameter is set to [Manual], this item allows you to select a specific CPU core voltage. This field is not accessible when the CPU VCore Setting parameter is set to [Auto]. Configuration options: [1.100V] ...[1.850V]

CAUTION! Refer to the CPU documentation before setting this field. A very high core voltage may severely damage the CPU.

CPU Level 1 Cache, CPU Level 2 Cache [Enabled]

These fields allow you to choose from the default of [Enabled] or choose [Disabled] to turn on or off the CPU Level 1 and Level 2 built-in cache. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

PS/2 Mouse Function Control [Auto]

The default setting [Auto] allows the system to detect a PS/2 mouse at startup. If a mouse is detected, the BIOS assigns IRQ12 to the PS/2 mouse. Otherwise, IRQ12 can be used for expansion cards. When you set this field to [Enabled], BIOS reserves IRQ12, whether or not a PS/2 mouse is detected at startup. Configuration options: [Enabled] [Auto]

This motherboard supports Universal Serial Bus (USB) devices. The default of [Auto] allows the system to detect a USB device at startup. If detected, the USB controller legacy mode is enabled. If not detected, the USB controller legacy mode is disabled. When you set this field to [Disabled], the USB controller legacy mode is disabled whether or not you are using a USB device. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled] [Auto]

OS/2 Onboard Memory > 64M [Disabled]
