3-8. PC Health Status

Shutdown Temperature:
This item sets the temperature that would shutdown the system automatically in order to prevent system
overheats.
NOTE: This item only works for the OS with ACPI activated.
CPU Warning Temperature:
This item selects the CPU's warning temperature limit. Once the system has detected that the CPU's
temperature exceeded the limit, warning beeps will sound.
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.
FAN Fail Alarm Selectable:
This item selects the fan that will be monitored for malfunction.
Shutdown When CPU FAN Fail:
When set to [Enabled], the system will be shut down if the CPU fan is not running.
NOTE: This item only works for the OS with ACPI activated.
CPU FanEQ Speed Control:
This item allows you to control the CPU fan speed down to a specific percentage.
When set to a specific percentage, the CPU fan speed will run at the percentage you set in this item if the
temperature limit set in the item "Active Temperature" is not exceeded.
The CPU fan speed will run at 100% regardless of what the percentage you set in this item if the
temperature limit set in the item "Active Temperature" is exceeded.
