Desktop Management nterface (DM )

The system board comes with a DMI .0 built into the BIOS. The

DMI utility in the BIOS automatically records various information

about your system configuration and stores these information in the

DMI pool, which is a part of the system board's Plug and Play

BIOS. DMI, along with the appropriately networked software, is

designed to make inventory, maintenance and troubleshooting of

computer systems easier. Refer to chapter 4 for instructions on using

the DMI utility.

speed

Refer to the PC Health Status section in chapter 3 and the VIA

Hardware Monitor section in chapter 4 for more information.

1.1.3 ntelligence

Automatic CPU/Chassis Fan Off

The CPU and chassis fans will automatically turn off once the system
