BIOS Setup

ECC Configuration

DRAM ECC Enable

This setting enables/disables ECC (Error Correction Code) checking, a method of checking the integrity of data in DRAM. ECC provides more elaborate error detection than parity; ECC can detect multiple-bit errors and can locate and correct single-bit errors.

4-Bit ECC Mode

This setting enables/disables the 4-bit ECC mode.

DRAM Scrub Redirect

This setting enables/disables ECC Scrubber to correct errors detected in DRAM during normal CPU requests (foreground scrubbing).

DRAM BG Scrub

The setting enables/disables DRAM background scrubbing.

L2 Cache BG Scrub

The L2 ECC Scrub option controls the time allotted for the L2 memory cache to be corrected when in an idle state.

Data Cache BG Scrub

The Data Cache ECC Scrub option controls the time allotted for the L1 memory cache to be corrected when in an idle state.
