This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology, which means during

overclocking, FSB enjoys better margin due to fixed PCI / PCIE buses. Before you

enable Untied Overclocking function, please enter “Overclock Mode” option of BIOS

setup to set the selection from [Auto] to [CPU, PCIE, Async.]. Therefore, CPU FSB is

untied during overclocking, but PCI / PCIE buses are in the fixed mode so that FSB can

operate under a more stable overclocking environment.

Please refer to the warning on page 8 for the possible overclocking risk before

you apply Untied Overclocking Technology.

NOTE. If you install Windows

7 / 7 64-bit / Vista

/ Vista

64-bit on IDE HDDs and want to

manage (create, convert, delete, or rebuild) RAID functions on SATA / SATAII HDDs,

you still need to set up “SATA Operation Mode” to [RAID] in BIOS first. Then, please set

the RAID configuration by using the Windows RAID installation guide in the following

path in the Support CD:

NOTE. For Windows

support CD. Please use the native driver to install Windows
