Advanced settings
On some computer models the Advanced settings menu includes a setting to Enable/Disable
HyperThreading. This feature works only with HyperThreading-aware operating systems, such as Microsoft
Windows XP and Windows Vista™. The default setting for HyperThreading is Enabled. However, if you
select Set Defaults and are using an operating system other than Windows XP or Windows Vista, the
computer performance might be degraded. Therefore, you should always set HyperThreading to Disabled
unless you are sure your operating system supports HyperThreading.
Exiting from the Setup Utility program
When you nish viewing or changing settings, press Esc to return to the Setup Utility program menu (you
might have to press Esc several times). If you want to save the new settings, select Save & Exit Setup
before you exit. Otherwise, your changes will not be saved.
