3.3 ASUS POST Reporter™
This motherboard includes the Winbond speech controller to support the
ASUS POST Reporter™ feature. This feature gives you vocal POST
messages and alerts to inform you of system events and boot status. In
case of a boot failure, you will hear the specific cause of the problem.
These POST messages are customizable using the Winbond Voice Editor
software that came with your package. You can record your own
messages to replace the default messages.
