Load Line Control
&
Enables or disables Load Line control. This item allows you to adjust Vdroop at different levels. Enabling
Load Line control may keep the CPU voltage more constant under light and heavy CPU load. Auto lets
the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
AMD C6 Support
&
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C6 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the
CPU core frequency will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power consumption. The C6
state is a more enhanced power-saving state than C1. (Default: Disabled)
Virtualization
&
Virtualization allows a platform to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions.
With virtualization, one computer system can function as multiple virtual systems.
(Default: Disabled)
AMD K8 Cool&Quiet control
&
Auto Lets the AMD Cool'n'Quiet driver dynamically adjust the CPU clock and VID to reduce

heat output from your computer and its power consumption. (Default)
Disabled Disables this function.

C-state Pmin
&
Allows you to determine whether to let the CPU enter C1 mode in system halt state. When enabled, the
CPU core frequency and voltage will be reduced during system halt state to decrease power con-sumption.
Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting. (Default: Auto)
Hard Disk Boot Priority
&
Specifies the sequence of loading the operating system from the installed hard drives. Use the up or
down arrow key to select a hard drive, then press the plus key <+> (or <PageUp>) or the minus key <->
(or <PageDown>) to move it up or down on the list. Press <Esc> to exit this menu when finished.
EFI CD/DVD Boot Option
&
Set this item to EFI if you want to install the operating system to a hard drive larger than 2.2 TB. Make sure
the operating system to be installed supports booting from a GPT partition, such as Windows 7 64-bit and
Windows Server 2003 64-bit. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configure this setting depending on the
hard drive you install. (Default: Auto)
