2.1.3 Intelligence

• Fan Status Monitoring and Alarm: To prevent system overheat and system

damage, the CPU, power supply, and system fans can be monitored for RPM

and failure. All the fans are set for its normal RPM range and alarm thresholds.

• Temperature Monitoring and Alert: To prevent system overheat and system

damage, this motherboard supports Socket 370 processor thermal sensing.

• 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 95/98/

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

mous user interfaces and run large applications. The system resource monitor

will warn the user before the system resources are used up to prevent possible

application crashes. Suggestions will give the user information on managing

their limited resources more efficiently.

• 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

an important feature to implement silent PC systems.

• Remote Ring On (requires modem): This allows a computer with this

motherboard to be turned on remotely through an internal or external modem.

With this feature, users can access their computer from anywhere in the world!

• Message LED (requires ACPI OS support): Chassis LEDs now act as infor-

mation providers. Through the way a particular LED illuminates, the user can

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

mation to the user.

• Keyboard Wake Up: Keyboard Wake Up can be enabled or disabled to allow

the computer to be powered ON using your keyboard.
