3) Safe Mode Setting (SAFE_MODE)

Usually processors have locked frequency multiples. In this case, there is no way
to exceed the specified multiple whether through motherboard settings or BIOS
setup. With unlocked processors, exceeding the specified multiple is possible
through BIOS setup. Exceeding the specified multiple may result in hanging dur-
ing bootup. If this occurs, set this jumper to Safe Mode to force a multiple of 2 and
100MHz FSB to enter BIOS setup to correct the problem.

2) Automatic Timeout Reboot Setting (NO_REBOOT)

The motherboard is set so that when the BIOS detects a hang (timeout) during
bootup, the motherboard will automatically reboot. If rebooting is repeating in-
effectively, set this jumper to No Reboot to disable auto-reboot. However, if
Safe Mode Setting (SAFE_MODE) is set to Safe Mode, setting Automatic
Timeout Reboot Setting
(NO_REBOOT) to No Reboot will bring the system
to Safe Mode so you may be able to correct any problems.
