Figure 18-3. Standard Memory Optimization Menu
Manual Settings Menu
When Manual is selected for Memory Optimization, the remaining menu entries become active, indicating the entries are
alterable and are no longer greyed out. If saved, the values in these entries become active when setup is exited and the
system reboots.
It is highly recommended that the user selects Load Current Values From CPU when first switching to Manual Optimization
in order to obtain the correct base values the system is using.
WARNING: Altering memory optimization values can result in a non-operational system. Only alter these values upon
understanding the proper values and use of each field from the appropriate CPU’s manual.
If the system becomes non-operational, resetting or restarting the platform three times restores the default values.
