BIOS Menu 21: South Bridge Chipset Configuration

Audio Controller [Auto]

The Audio Controller option enables or disables the audio controller.

Auto D

EFAULT

The on-board audio controller is detected and

automatically enabled.

All Disabled

The on-board audio controller is disabled.

Spread Spectrum Function [Disabled]

Use the Spread Spectrum Function option to reduce the EMI. Excess EMI is generated

when the system clock generator pulses have extreme values. Spreading the pulse

spectrum modulates changes in the extreme values from spikes to flat curves, thus

reducing the EMI. This benefit may in some cases be outweighed by problems with

timing-critical devices, such as a clock-sensitive SCSI device.

Disabled D
