10. ASRock Instant Flash ist ein im Flash-ROM eingebettetes BIOS-Flash-

Programm. Mithilfe dieses praktischen BIOS-Aktualisierungswerkzeugs können Sie das System-BIOS aktualisieren, ohne dafür zuerst Betriebssysteme wie MS-DOS oder Windows® aufrufen zu müssen. Mit diesem Programm bekommen Sie durch Drücken der <F6>-Taste während des POST-Vorgangs oder durch Drücken der <F2>-Taste im BIOS-Setup-Menü Zugang zu ASRock Instant Flash. Sie brauchen dieses Werkzeug einfach nur zu starten und die neue BIOS-Datei auf Ihrem USB-Flash-Laufwerk, Diskettenlaufwerk oder der Festplatte zu speichern, und schon können Sie Ihr BIOS mit nur wenigen Klickvorgängen ohne Bereitstellung einer zusätzlichen Diskette oder eines anderen komplizierten Flash-Programms a ktualisieren. Achten Sie darauf, dass das USB-Flash-Laufwerk oder die Festplatte das Dateisystem FAT32/16/12 benutzen muss.

11. Obwohl dieses Motherboard stufenlose Steuerung bietet, wird

Overclocking nicht empfohlen. Frequenzen, die von den empfohlenen CPU-Busfrequenzen abweichen, können Instabilität des Systems verursachen oder die CPU beschädigen.

12. Wird eine Überhitzung der CPU registriert, führt das System einen

automatischen Shutdown durch. Bevor Sie das System neu starten, prüfen Sie bitte, ob der CPU-Lüfter am Motherboard richtig funktioniert, und stecken Sie bitte den Stromkabelstecker aus und dann wieder ein. Um die Wärmeableitung zu verbessern, bitte nicht vergessen, etwas Wärmeleitpaste zwischen CPU und Kühl körper zu sprühen.
