CPU Feature
This field is used to configure the CPU that is installed on the sys-
tem board. Move the cursor to this field then press <Enter>.
The settings on the screen are for reference only. Your version may not be
identical to this one.
Delay Prior To Thermal
This field is used to select the time that would force the CPU to a
50% duty cycle when it exceeds its maximum operating temperature
therefore protecting the CPU and the system board from overheat-
ing to ensure a safe computing environment..
PPM Mode
The options are Native Mode and SMM mode.
Limit CPUID MaxVal
The CPUID instruction of some newer CPUs will return a value
greater than 3. Problems will occur only in certain operating systems.
The default is Disabled because this problem does not exist in the
Windows series operating systems. If you are using an operating
system other than Windows, this problem may occur. To avoid tihs
problem, enable this field to limit the return value to 3 or lesser than
3.
