NOTE: The onboard hardware monitor function is capable of detecting these system health conditions. If
you want a warning message to pop-up or a warning alarm to sound when an abnormal condition occurs,
you must install the "Hardware Doctor" utility. This utility is included in the "Driver & Utility CD" that
came packed with this motherboard.
Smart Fan Speed Control:
This item allows you to control the speed of CPU fan down to a specific percentage. When the
temperature limit of both the item "CPU Shutdown Temperature" and "CPU Warning Temperature" are
not exceeded, the CPU fan speed will run at the percentage you set. When the temperature limit of both
the item "CPU Shutdown Temperature" and "CPU Warning Temperature" are exceeded, the CPU fan
speed will run at its 100% speed, regardless of what the percentage you set.
All Voltages, Fans Speed and Thermal Monitoring:
These unchangeable items list the current status of the CPU and environment temperatures, fan speeds,
and system power voltage.
NOTE: The hardware monitoring features for temperatures, fans and voltages will occupy the I/O
address from 294H to 297H. If you have a network adapter, sound card or other add-on cards that might
use those I/O addresses, please adjust your add-on card I/O address to avoid using these addresses.
