CPU Temperature Display Mode
This feature displays the CPU temperature detected by DTS (i.e., +34
o
C) or temper-
ature status in text ("Low", "Medium" or "High"). The options are Text Mode or DTS.
If Text Mode is selected, the CPU Temperature Display Mode will show the CPU
temperature status as follows:
CPU 1 Temperature/CPU 2 Temperature
The CPU Temperature feature will display the CPU temperature status as detected
by the BIOS:
Low - This level is considered as the 'normal' operating state. The CPU temperature
is well below the CPU 'Temperature Tolerance'. The motherboard fans and CPU will
run normally as congured in the BIOS (Fan Speed Control).
Medium - The processor is running warmer. This is a 'precautionary' level and gen-
erally means that there may be factors contributing to this condition , but the CPU
is still within its normal operating state and below the CPU 'Temperature Tolerance'.
The motherboard fans and CPU will run normally as congured in the BIOS. The
fans may adjust to a faster speed depending on the Fan Speed Control settings.
High - The processor is running hot. This is a 'caution' level since the CPU's 'Tem-
perature Tolerance' has been reached (or has been exceeded) and may activate
an overheat alarm. The system may shut down if it continues for a long period to
prevent damage to the CPU. If the system buzzer and Overheat LED has activated,
take action immediately by checking the system fans, chassis ventilation and room
temperature to correct any problems.
