When enabled, In-System Characterization (ISC)

 

runs during POST upon detecting relevant

 

change(s) in system configuration to optimize

 

system power and performance. ISC takes about

 

20 seconds to run, and system reset is required for

 

ISC results to be applied. The Enabled - No Reboot

 

option runs ISC and continues without applying

 

ISC results until the next time system reset occurs.

 

The Enabled option runs ISC and forces an

 

immediate system reset so that ISC results can be

 

applied. It takes the system longer to be ready due

 

to the forced system reset. When disabled, ISC

 

does not run.
