ROM
Secure Boot mode is enabled.
Enables or disables In-System Characterization. This option is set to Disabled by default. The two
In-System
other options are Enabled and Enabled - No Reboot.
Characterization
When enabled, In-System Characterization (ISC) executes during POST upon detecting relevant changes
in system configuration to optimize system power and performance. ISC takes about 20 seconds to
execute, and system reset is needed for ISC results to be applied. The Enabled - No Reboot option
executes ISC and continues without applying ISC results until the next time system reset occurs. The
Enabled option executes ISC and forces an immediate system reset so that ISC results can be applied.
It takes the system longer to be ready due to the forced system reset. When disabled, ISC does not
execute.
