Desktop Management Interface (DMI)
The mainboard comes with a DMI 2.0 built into the BIOS. The DMI
utility in the BIOS automatically records various information about
your system configuration and stores these information in the DMI
pool, which is a part of the system board's Plug and Play BIOS.
DMI, along with the appropriately networked software, is designed
to make inventory, maintenance and troubleshooting of computer
systems easier. Refer to chapter 4 for instructions on using the DMI
utility.
