Chapter 6

This chapter will introduce special functions of BIOS and how SuperSpeed SuperBIOS-Protect SuperBoot SuperRecovery
to use them in detail. It can further exert the max potential of motherboard to bring you super-value enjoyment. This chapter introduces the following special functions of BIOS:

SuperSpeed

SuperSpeed is a powerful and efficient Easy Technology for PC DIY fans. It offers a friendly interface. Users can set the CPU Clock easily in the BIOS setup.

Procedures:

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Correctly install your CPU. Plug in other configurations and restore the system. Switch on power to the system and press the <Del> key to enter BIOS Setup. Enter the <BIOS Features> menu to set the CPU clock. Save and exit BIOS Setup; your system will now boot successfully.
BIOS provides you with a set of basic values for your processor selection instead of the jumper settings. The processor speed can be manually set from the <BIOS Features> menu screen.
Be sure your selection is right. CPU over speed can be dangerous! We will not be responsible for any damages caused.

SuperBoot

SuperBoot technology greatly reduces the long boot process time of computers. A BIOS without SuperBoot has to perform many routines every time when the system starts, such as checking the system core and initializing system peripherals. Now with SuperBoot, a PC can bootup without any unnecessary. SuperBoot is quite easy to use: choose the right option in CMOS setup (refer to BIOS features), SuperBoot saves the information when the PC boots up the first time, and restores the parameters for the system, thus letting the PC boot freely and rapidly.

Notes:

1. If the previous boot was not completed then the BIOS will perform a normal POST, even if SuperBoot is enabled. 2. No matter whether SuperBoot is enabled or not, the BIOS will perform a normal POST if the CMOS fails. 70

SuperBIOS-Protect

The BIOS of the motherboard is contained inside the Flash ROM. Severe viruses, such as the CIH virus, are so dangerous that they may overwrite the BIOS. If the BIOS has been damaged, the system will be unable to boot. We provide the following solution which protects the system BIOS from being attacked by such viruses.

Release Hidden Partition:
This is used to release the hidden partition. If you choose this item and press <Y> to confirm, the system will be restarted to release the hidden partition. But the released partition is still unavailable for you after the system is restarted. Its necessary for you to enable it by using FDISK, PQMAGIC, or some other tools.
