How to use Biostar "CPU Savior" technology to protect my CPU ?

Biostar has to design a new technology to protect your AMD XP CPU. Our name as CPU Savior. The AMD latest XP CPU has been integrated a function to provide CPU working temperature. We had to put an IC to detect the current AMD XP CPU temperature, then report to system PWM IC and turn off your system. That mean if your AMD XP CPU current temperature was detected higher, then the CPU allow limit by your CPU FAN stop to run or that's a Gap between CPU and Heatsink, your system will shut down, automatically.

Note!K You must clear your system CMOS before to turn on your system, again. Also, the new CPU Savior technology just to depend on AMD XP CPU, only. In early stage, the AMD Athlon and Duron which are not support this function. Last, let us to summarize this work procedure as below.

  1. AMD XP CPU Temperature is reached the limit.
  2. System will shut down, automatically.
  3. Clear CMOS.
  4. Make sure the CPU ran is working properly, the contact area between CPU and the heatsink is evenly.
  5. Turn On your computer.
