1.3. System Health Monitor Functions System Health Monitor Functions
(optional for 366X-AC and 366X-AS)
The mainboard is capable of monitoring the following health conditions of your system:
1. Processor temperature. It has an overheat alarm.
2. VCORE/3.3V/5V/12V/-12V voltages and failure alarm.
3. Processor and chassis fan speeds. It has a failure alarm for these fans.
4. Read back capability that displays temperature, voltage and fan speed.
1.3.1. Hardware Monitoring System Utility
The mainboard comes with the Hardware Monitoring System utility contained on the CD. It
is capable of monitoring the system’s hardware conditions such as the temperature of the
processor, voltage, and the speed of both the CPU and chassis fans. You are allowed to
manually set a range to the items being monitored. If the values are over or under the set
range a warning message will automatically pop up. We recommend that you use the
Default Settings, which are the ideal settings that will maintain the system in a good
working condition.
Note: Only use this utility in Windows ® 95 or Windows ® 98 operating systems.
The surround sound feature should be used together with a Front Utility Panel. This panel
brings the MIC-IN, LINE-IN and Earphones lines, together with some USB ports, to the
front of the system. The Front Utility Panel can be connected to the internal Front Audio
Connector. The Front Utility Panel is shown below.
