P5A-B Series

II. FEATURES

• Voltage Monitoring and Alert: System voltage levels are monitored to ensure

stable current to critical motherboard components. Voltage specifications are

more critical for future processors, so monitoring is necessary to ensure proper

system configuration and management.

• System Resources Alert: Today’s operating systems, such as Windows 95, Win-

dows NT, and OS/2, require much more memory and hard drive space to present

enormous user interfaces and run large applications. The system resource moni-

tor will warn the user before the system resources are used up to prevent pos-

sible application crashes. Suggestions will give the user information on manag-

ing their limited resources more efficiently.

• CPU Slow Down: When CPU fans or system fans are malfunctioning, the sys-

tem will deactivate the CPU Clock line to decrease CPU utilization to the speed

upon detection of system overheat. This will prevent CPU damage from system

overheat. The CPU utilization will restore normal operations when temperature

falls below a safe level.

• Auto Fan Off: The system fans will power off automatically even in sleep

mode. This function reduces both energy consumption and system noise, and is

a important feature to implement silent PC systems.

• Dual Function Power Button (requires ATX power supply): The system can

be in one of two states, one is Sleep mode and the other is Soft-Off mode. Pushing

the power button for less than 4 seconds places the system into Sleep mode. When

the power button is pressed for more than 4 seconds, it enters the Soft-Off mode.

• Remote Ring On (requires ATX power supply): This feature allows a computer

to be turned on remotely through a modem. With this benefit on hand, any user

can access vital information from their computer from anywhere in the world!

• Message LED (requires ACPI-supported OS): Chassis LEDs now act as in-

formation providers. Through the way a particular LED illuminates, the user

can determine the stage the computer is in. A simple glimpse provides useful

information to the user.
