[. . . ] Configuration supervisor password allows you to restrict access to the system and BIOS Setup. A supervisor password allows you to make changes in BIOS Setup. A user password only allows you to view the BIOS settings but not to make changes. Save all the changes made in the BIOS Setup program to the CMOS and exit BIOS Setup. (Pressing <F10> can also carry out this task. ) Abandon all changes and the previous settings remain in effect. Pressing <Y> to the confirmation message will exit BIOS Setup. (Pressing <Esc> can also carry out this task. )  Chipset  Boot  Security  Save & Exit - 26 - BIOS Setup 2-1 The Main Menu Once you enter the BIOS Setup program, the Main Menu (as shown below) appears on the screen. Use arrow keys to move among the items and press <Enter> to accept or enter other sub-menu. Main Menu Help The on-screen description of a highlighted setup option is displayed on the bottom line of the Main Menu. Submenu Help While in a submenu, press <F1> to display a help screen (General Help) of function keys available for the menu. Press <Esc> to exit the help screen. When enabled, cache lines are fetched in pairs. When disabled, only the required cache line is fetched. Select whether to enable the Intel Virtualization Technology function. VT allows a single platform to run multiple operating systems in independent partitions. Options available:Disabled/Custom/Energy Efficient. Conventional Intel SpeedStep Technology switches both voltage and frequency in tandem between high and low levels in response to processor load. When this feature is enabled, the processor can dynamically overclock one or two of its four processing cores to improve performance with applications that are not multi-threaded or optimized for quad-core processors. Default setting is Enabled. Active Processor Cores (Note) Limit CPUID Maximum Execute Disable Bit Hardware Prefetcher Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch Intel Virtualization Technology Power Technology EIST (Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology) Turbo Mode P-State Coordination In HW_ALL mode, the processor hardware is responsible for coordinating the P-state among logical processors dependencies. The OS is responsible for keeping the P-state request up to date on all logical processors. In SW_ALL mode, the OS Power Manager is responsible for coordinating the P-state among logical BIOS Setup - 32 - CPU C3/C6 Support (Note) processors with dependencies and must initiate the transition on all of those Logical Processors. In SW_ANY mode, the OS Power Manager is responsible for coordinating the P-state among logical processors with dependencies and may initiate the transition on any of those Logical Processors.
