Chapter 5 DESKTOP MANAGEMENT INTERFACE (DMI) OVERVIEW This motherboard can support DMI within the BIOS level. DMI is able to auto- detect and record information pertinent to a computer’s system such as the CPU type, CPU speed, and internal/external frequencies, and memory size. The onboard BIOS will detect as many system information as possible and store those collected information in a 4KB block in the motherboard’s flash EPROM and allow the DMI to retrieve data from this database.
