4.9 Advanced Chipset Features

Since the features in this section are related to the chipset in the CPU board and all are optimized, you are

not recommended to change the default settings in the setup table, unless you understand the chipset

features.

This section allows you to configure the system based on the specific features of the installed chipset.

This chipset manage bus speeds and access to system memory resources, such as DRAM and the

external cache. It also coordinates communications between the conventional ISA bus and the PCI bus.

The default settings have been chosen because they provide the best operating conditions for your system.

The only time you might consider making any changes would be if you discovered that data was being lost

while using your system.

The first chipset settings deal with CPU access to dynamic random access memory (DRAM). The default

timings have been carefully chosen and should only be altered if data is being lost. Such a scenario might

well occur if your system has mixed speed DRAM chips installed so that greater delays may be required to

preserve the integrity of the data held in the slower memory chips.

Selecting Advanced Chipset Features on the main program screen displays this menu:
