UEFI BIOS Setup
Introduction
The purpose of this manual is to describe the settings in the AMI UEFI BIOS Setup
program on this motherboard. The Setup program allows users to modify the basic
system configuration and save these settings to NVRAM.
UEFI BIOS determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a
disk. This system controls most of the input and output devices such as keyboard,
mouse, serial ports and disk drives. BIOS activates at the first stage of the booting
process, loading and executing the operating system. Some additional features, such
as virus and password protection or chipset fine-tuning options are also included in
UEFI BIOS.
The rest of this manual will to guide you through the options and settings in UEFI
BIOS Setup.
Plug and Play Support

This AMI UEFI BIOS supports the Plug and Play Version 1.0A specification.
EPA Green PC Support

This AMI UEFI BIOS supports Version 1.03 of the EPA Green PC specification.
ACPI Support
AMI ACPI UEFI BIOS support Version 1.0/2.0 of Advanced Configuration and
Power interface specification (ACPI).
It provides ASL code for power
management and device configuration capabilities as defined in the ACPI
specification, developed by Microsoft, Intel and Toshiba.
PCI Bus Support

This AMI UEFI BIOS also supports Version 2.3 of the Intel PCI (Peripheral
Component Interconnect) local bus specification.
DRAM Support
DDR3 SDRAM (Double Data Rate III Synchronous DRAM) is supported.

Supported CPUs
This AMI UEFI BIOS supports the Intel CPU.
Using Setup
When starting up the computer, press
<Del> during the Power-On Self-Test
(POST) to enter the UEFI BIOS setup
utility.
In the UEFI BIOS setup utility, you will
see General Help description at the top
right corner, and this is providing a brief
description of the selected item.
Navigation Keys for that particular menu
are at the bottom right corner, and you can
use these keys to select item and change
the settings.
Notice
z
The default UEFI BIOS settings apply for most conditions to ensure optimum
performance of the motherboard. If the system becomes unstable after changing
any settings, please load the default settings to ensure systems compatibility and
stability. Use Load Setup Default under the Exit Menu.
For better system performance, the UEFI BIOS firmware is being continuously
updated. The UEFI BIOS information described in this manual is for your reference
only. The actual UEFI BIOS information and settings on board may be slightly
different from this manual.
The content of this manual is subject to be changed without notice. We will not be
responsible for any mistakes found in this users manual and any system damage that
may be caused by wrong-settings.

Active Processor Cores

This item sets number of cores to enable in each processor package.
Options: All (Default) / 1 / 2 / 3
Limit CPUID Maximum
When the computer is booted up, the operating system executes the CPUID
instruction to identify the processor and its capabilities. Before it can do so, it must
first query the processor to find out the highest input value CPUID recognizes. This
determines the kind of basic information CPUID can provide the operating system.
Execute-Disable Bit
XD can prevent certain classes of malicious buffer overflow attacks when combined
with a supporting OS (Windows Server 2003 SP1, Windows XP SP2, SuSE Linux
9.2, RedHat Enterprise 3 Update 3.).
Hardware Prefetcher
The processor has a hardware prefetcher that automatically analyzes its requirements
and prefetches data and instructions from the memory into the Level 2 cache that are
likely to be required in the near future. This reduces the latency associated with
memory reads.

Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch
The processor has a hardware adjacent cache line prefetch mechanism that
automatically fetches an extra 64-byte cache line whenever the processor requests for
a 64-byte cache line. This reduces cache latency by making the next cache line
immediately available if the processor requires it as well.
Intel Virtualization Tech
Virtualization Technology can virtually separate your system resource into several
parts, thus enhance the performance when running virtual machines or multi
interface systems.

This item enables the power management features.

Legacy USB Support

This item determines if the BIOS should provide legacy support for USB devices
like the keyboard, mouse, and USB drive. This is a useful feature when using such
USB devices with operating systems that do not natively support USB (e.g.
Microsoft DOS or Windows NT).
Options: Enabled (Default) / Disabled / Auto
EHCI Hand-Off
This is a workaround for OSes without EHCI hand-off support. The EHCI ownership
change should be claimed by EHCI driver.
