How to install a DIMM Module
1. The DIMM socket has a
“ Plastic Safety Tab”, and the
DIMM memory module has an
“Asymmetrical notch”, so the
DIMM memory module can only
fit into the slot in one direction.
2. Push the tabs out. Insert the
DIMM memory modules into the
socket at a 90-degree angle, then
push down vertically so that it will
fit into the place.
3. The Mounting Holes and plastic
tabs should fit over the edge and
hold the DIMM memory modules
in place.

Cómo instalar un Módulo DIMM
1. El zócalo DIMM tiene una
lengüeta plástica de seguridad y
el módulo de memoria DIMM
tiene una muesca asimétrica, así
el módulo de memoria DIMM
puede caber solamente en la
ranura de una sóla dirección.
2. Tire la lengüeta hacia afuera.
Inserte los módulos de memoria
DIMM en el zócalo a los 90
grados, luego empuje hacia abajo
verticalmente de modo que
encaje en el lugar.
3. Los agujeros de montaje y las lengüetas plásticas deben caber por
sobre el borde y sostenga los módulos de memoria DIMM en el lugar.

WarpSpeeder
Introduction
[ WarpSpeeder™ ], a new powerful control utility, features three user-friendly
functions including Overclock Manager, Overvoltage Manager, and Hardware
Monitor.
With the Overclock Manager, users can easily adjust the frequency they prefer
or they can get the best CPU performance with just one click. The Overvoltage
Manager, on the other hand, helps to power up CPU core voltage and Memory
voltage. The cool Hardware Monitor smartly indicates the temperatures, voltage
and CPU fan speed as well as the chipset information. Also, in the About panel,
you can get detail descriptions about BIOS model and chipsets. In addition, the
frequency status of CPU, memory, AGP and PCI along with the CPU speed are
synchronically shown on our main panel.
Moreover, to protect users' computer systems if the setting is not appropriate
when testing and results in system fail or hang, [ WarpSpeeder™ ] technology
assures the system stability by automatically rebooting the computer and then
restart to a speed that is either the original system speed or a suitable one.
