CPU & Cooler Installation
When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler attached on the top to prevent overheating. If you do not have the cooler, contact
your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the computer. Meanwhile,
do not forget to apply some silicon heat transfer compound on CPU before installing
the heat sink/cooler fan for better heat dispersion.
Follow the steps below to install the CPU & cooler correctly. Wrong installation
will cause the damage of your CPU & mainboard.
1. The CPU has a land side cover on the
bottom to protect the CPU contact from
damage. Rotate it to make the pin 1
indicator (yellow triangle) in the rightbottom corner.
2. Take out the accompanying CPU Clip
and rotate it for the same direction
as the CPU (Pin 1 indicator, the red
triangle is in the left-bottom corner).
land side cover
3. Align the 3 points (the Pin 1 indicator
and the two alignment keys) of both
the CPU and the CPU Clip, and use your
4 fingers to push the CPU Clip down to
clip them (the CPU clip is up and the
CPU is down) together.
4. T h e l a n d s i d e c o v e r n o w i s
removed.
MSI Reminds You...
1. Confirm if your CPU cooler is firmly installed before turning on your
system.
2. Do not touch the CPU socket pins to avoid damaging.
3. The availability of the CPU land side cover depends on your CPU
packing.
E-2-4
Hardware Setup
5. The CPU has a plastic cap on it to
protect the contact from damage.
Before you have installed the CPU,
always cover it to protect the socket
pin.
6. Remove the cap from lever hinge side
(as the arrow shows).
7. The pins of socket reveal. Then lift
up the load lever.
8. Lift the load lever up and open the
load plate.
9. Correctly align the red triangle of
CPU clip with the CPU chamfer, the
red arrow with the left-side socket
edge, and the red spot to the hook
of the socket.
10. Put the whole module onto the CPU
socket.
E-2-5
MS-6728 ATX Mainboard
11. Push down the CPU hard to install
the CPU into the socket housing
frame.
12. Visually inspect if the CPU is seated
well into the socket, then remove the
CPU Clip with 2 fingers. Then cover
the load plate onto the package.
13. Press down the load lever lightly
onto the load plate, and then secure the lever with the hook under
retention tab.
14. Align the holes on the mainboard with
the cooler. Push down the cooler until
its four clips get wedged into the holes
of the mainboard.
15. Press the four hooks down to fasten the cooler. Then rotate the locking switch (refer to the correct direction marked on it) to lock the
hooks.
16. Turn over the mainboard to confirm
that the clip-ends are correctly
inserted.

MSI Reminds You...
1. Check the information in PC Health Status in BIOS (refer to p.3-25 for
details) for the CPU temperature.
2. Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pin
with the plastic cap covered (shown in Figure 1) to avoid damaging.
3. Please note that the mating/unmating durability of the CPU is 20 cycles.
Therefore we suggest you do not plug/unplug the CPU too often.

Hardware Setup
Memory
The mainboard provides 4 slots for 184-pin, 2.5V DDR DIMM with 8 memory
banks. You can install DDR266 / DDR333 / DDR400 / DDR433 / DDR466 / DDR500 /
DDR533 SDRAM modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DIMM 1~4). To operate properly, at
least one DIMM module must be installed. Please note that DDR433 / DDR466 /
DDR500 / DDR533 are for overclocking spec.
DDR DIMM Slots
(DIMM 1~4, from left to right)
Channel A: DIMM1 & DIMM2 (green)
Channel B: DIMM3 & DIMM4 (purple)
Introduction to DDR SDRAM
DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM, but doubles the rate by transferring data twice per cycle. It uses 2.5 volts as opposed to 3.
3 volts used in SDR SDRAM, and requires 184-pin DIMM modules rather than 168-pin
DIMM modules used by SDR SDRAM. Please note that the DDR SDRAM does not
support ECC (error correcting code) and registered DIMM.
DDR Population Rules
Install at least one DIMM module on the slots. Each DIMM slot supports up to a
maximum size of 1GB. Users can install either single- or double-sided modules to
meet their own needs. Please note that each DIMM can work respectively for
single-channel DDR, but there are some rules while using dual-channel
DDR (Please refer to the suggested DDR population table on p.2-8). Users may install
memory modules of different type and density on different-channel DDR DIMMs.
However, the same type and density memory modules are necessary while
using dual-channel DDR, or instability may happen.
E-2-7
MS-6728 ATX Mainboard
Please refer to the following table for detailed dual-channel DDR. Other combination not listed below will function as single-channel DDR.

MSI Reminds You...
Dual-channel DDR works ONLY in the 3 combinations listed in the
table above.
Installing DDR Modules
1. The DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module. The module will only
fit in the right orientation.
2. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the
golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the socket.
MSI Reminds You...
You can barely see the golden finger if the module is properly inserted
in the socket.
3. The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close.

rate among CPU, north bridge chip and memory, and also in procuring better memory
performance and bandwidth up to 10%. Selecting [Fast] will enable MAT. Please be
noted that not every memory is compatible with MAT. If the system fail to reboot for
four times, the BIOS will be restored to the Default value ([Normal]). Setting options:
[Normal], [Fast], [Turbo (MAT)], [Ultra Turbo (MAT)].
MSI Reminds You...
1. Even though MAT is easy to use, it doesn't mean there's no risk at
all. We recommend you to check if your memory is able to bear
MAT setting or not before deciding to always use it. If your system
will be unstable or reboot incidentally after switching to [Fast],
please switch back to [Normal]. Moreover, if you want to conduct
FSB overclocking, you should set MAT as [Normal].
2. Meanwhile, for security reason, there are two functions to protect
BIOS and protect user’s system from crashing:
(a) There is a safe hotkey "Ins" in BIOS. If the overclocking or/and
MAT fails to run, you can press "Ins" key while rebooting system
to restore to the BIOS Defaults.
(b) If your system reboot for four times continually, the BIOS will
be restored to the Defaults (Normal), too.

D.O.T. Range
(D.O.T) Dynamic Overclocking Technology is the automatic overclocking function,
included in the MSI TM’s newly developed CoreCell TM Technology. It is designed to
detect the load balance of CPU while running programs, and to adjust the best CPU
frequency automatically. When the motherboard detects CPU is running programs, it
will speed up CPU automatically to make the program run smoothly and faster. When
the CPU is temporarily suspending or staying in the low load balance, it will restore
the default settings instead. Usually the Dynamic Overclocking Technology will be
powered only when users' PC need to run huge amount of data like 3D games or the
video process, and the CPU frequency need to be boosted up to enhance the overall
performance. Setting options:
[Disabled]
Disable Dynamic Overclocking.
[Private]
1st level of overclocking.
[Sergeant]
2nd level of overclocking.
[Captain]
3rd level of overclocking.
[Colonel]

[Commander] 6th level of overclocking.
MSI Reminds You...
Even though the Dynamic Overclocking Technology is more stable
than manual overclocking, basically, it is still risky. We suggest user
to make sure that your CPU can afford to overclocking regularly first.
If you find the PC appears to be unstable or reboot incidentally, it's
better to disable the Dynamic Overclocking or to lower the level of
overclocking options. By the way, if you need to conduct overclocking
manually, you also need to disable the Dynamic OverClocking first.
D.O.T Mode
This item allows you to decide the mode to overclock dynamically. Setting options:
[CPU Only], [CPU+AGP].
CPU Ratio Selection
This setting controls the multiplier that is used to determine the internal clock speed of
the processor relative to the external or motherboard clock speed.
DRAM Frequency (Mhz)
Use this field to configure the clock frequency of the installed DRAM. Settings are:
PSB 400: [266], [Auto], [333], [400], [433], [466], [500].
PSB 533: [266], [333], [Auto], [400], [433], [450], [466], [500], [354 (3:4)].

BIOS Setup
Spread Spectrum
When the motherboard’s clock generator pulses, the extreme values (spikes) of the
pulses creates EMI (Electromagnetic Interference). The Spread Spectrum function
reduces the EMI generated by modulating the pulses so that the spikes of the pulses
are reduced to flatter curves. If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at
[Disabled] for optimal system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI,
activate the Spread Spectrum for EMI reduction. Remember to disable Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because even a slight jitter can introduce a temporary
boost in clock speed which may just cause your overclocked processor to lock up.
Options: [Disabled], [Enabled].
Adjust CPU Bus Clock (Mhz)
This item allows you to select the CPU Bus clock frequency (in MHz) and overclock
the processor by adjusting the FSB clock to a higher frequency. Settings are:
PSB 400: 100-355MHz.
PSB 533: 133-500MHz
PSB 800: 200-500MHz
DDR Clock (Mhz)
This read-only item allows you to view the current DDR clock.
Adjust AGP/PCI Clock (Mhz)
This item allows you to select the AGP/PCI clock frequency (in MHz) by adjusting the
AGP/PCI clock to a higher frequency.
DDR Power Voltage
Adjusting the DDR voltage can increase the DDR speed. Any changes made to this
setting may cause a stability issue, so changing the DDR voltage for long-term
purpose is NOT recommended.
AGP Power Voltage
AGP voltage is adjustable in the field, allowing you to increase the performance of
your AGP display card when overclocking, but the stability may be affected.
MSI Reminds You...
The settings shown in different color in CPU Voltage (V), DDR Power
Voltage and AGP Power Voltage helps to verify if your setting is
proper for your system.
White: Safe setting.
Yellow: High performance setting.

When you select this function, a message as below will appear on the screen:
Type the password, up to six characters in length, and press <Enter>. The
password typed now will replace any previously set password from CMOS memory.
You will be prompted to confirm the password. Retype the password and press
<Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password.
To clear a set password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter
the password. A message will show up confirming the password will be disabled.
Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup
without entering any password.
When a password has been set, you will be prompted to enter it every time
you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part
of your system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also have AMIBIOS to
request a password each time the system is booted. This would prevent unauthorized use of your computer. The setting to determine when the password prompt is
required is the PASSWORD CHECK option of the ADVANCED BIOS FEATURES menu.
If the PASSWORD CHECK option is set to [Always], the password is required both at
boot and at entry to Setup. If set to [Setup], password prompt only occurs when you
try to enter Setup.

The two options on the main menu allow users to restore all of the BIOS settings to
High Performance defaults or BIOS Setup defaults. The High Performance Defaults
are the values set by the mainboard manufacturer for the best system performance
but probably will cause a stability issue. The BIOS Setup Defaults are the default
values also set by the mainboard manufacturer for stable performance of the
mainboard.
When you select Load High Performance Defaults, a message as below appears:
Pressing ‘Enter’ loads the default BIOS values that enable the best system performance but may lead to a stability issue.
MSI Reminds You...
The option is for power or overclocking users only. Use of high
performance defaults will tighten most timings to increase the system
performance. Therefore, a high-end system configuration is a must,
which means you need high-quality VGA adapter, RAM and so on. We
don’t recommend that users should apply the high performance
defaults in their regular systems. Otherwise, the system may become unstable or even crash. If the system crashes or hangs after
enabling the feature, please CLEAR CMOS DATA to resolve the problem.
For more information, refer to “Clear CMOS Jumper: JBAT1” in Chapter

software access point mode is set to WLAN Card Mode. For more advanced
security settings and channels switching, click on “Setting” button to enter its submenu.
Terminology
Here are the introduction of WLAN / AP communication terminology.
WEP Key
In the wireless network environment, the administrator can set up password
(Network Key) to protect the network from being attacked or unauthorized
access. When building the network, you can set up 4 sets of WEP keys,
which can be 5 characters (10 hex-adecimal digital) or 13 characters (26
hex-adecimal digital) and specify one of them to use.
Ad-hoc Mode
An Ad-hoc network is a local area network or other small network, especially
one with wireless or temporary plug-in connections, in which some of the
network devices are part of the network only for the duration of a communications session. Users in the network can share files, print to a shared
printer, and access the Internet with a shared modem. In this kind of network,
new devices can be quickly added; however, users can only communicate
with other wireless LAN computers that are in this wireless LAN workgroup,
and are within range.
Infrastructure Mode
The difference between Infrastructure network and Ad-hoc network is that
the former one includes an Access Point. In an Infrastructure network, the
Access Point can manage the bandwidth to maximize bandwidth utilization.
Additionally, the Access Point enables users on a wireless LAN to access an
existing wired network, allowing wireless users to take advantage of the
wired networks resources, such as Internet, email, file transfer, and printer
sharing. The scale and range of the Infrastructure networking are larger and
wider than that of the Ad-hoc networking.
E-4-6
Introduction to DigiCell
Access Point Mode
Click on “Setting” button of the Access Point Mode and the following screen will
display.
IP Sharing
Click on this icon to enable/disable the IP sharing. The default of this setting is disabled.
Disabled.
Enabled.
Enabling/disabling IP sharing depends on the different situation. For example:
1. If your family and you are getting on Internet at home with multi computers, and
your ISP only provides one IP for you, you may need to enable IP Sharing
function in order to use this one IP to get on Internet with multi computers
simultaneously.
2. If you are getting on Internet in office, usually the LAN card will automatically get
the IP this computer uses. In this case you don’t have to enable this function.
SSID
Means Service Set Identifier, a unique name shared among all points in a wireless
network. It must be identical for all points in the network. Then the card will be able
to connect to an access point with the same SSID.
Channel
Specifies the operating radio frequency channel in Infrastructure mode, which
should be set to an available one (ex: with less traffic to ensure the stable and better
connection).
Associated Client List
This option is to display information of stations that are currently associated to your
wireless gateway.
Association Control
This option allows you to control which PC can connect to the wireless LAN. If you
E-4-7
MS-6728
ATX
Mainboard
MSI
Feature
enable this feature, only PCs with MAC address located in Association Control List
can connect to the wireless LAN.
MAC Address
MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address is the hardware address of
a device connected to a network.
Security
This option allows you to enable/disable the authentication function.
Authentication
Open:
Communicates the key across the network.
Shared: Devices must have identical WEP settings to communicate.
WLAN Card Mode
Click on “Setting” button of the WLAN Card Mode for the WEP status of your APs.
If the AP you are selecting (the highlighted one) is not encrypted (Disabled shown in
the Encryption column), the screen will display as below. You can click “Connect”
to make connection to that AP, click “Cancel” to close this dialogue box, or click
“Refresh” button to update the available WLAN connections.
If the network you are selecting is encrypted (WEP shown in the Encryption column),
the screen will display as below. You need to enter the correct WEP key defined by
AP in the specified WEP Key 1~4 fields to make the connection.

Introduction
Mémoire
La carte mčre possčde 4 slots (184 broches) 2.5V DDR DIMMavec 8 banques
mémoires. Vous pouvez installer des modules de mémoire DDR266/333/400/433/466/
500/533 sur les slots DDR DIMM (DDR 1~4). Pour fonctionner correctement, au moins
un module DIMM doit ętre installé. Notez que DDR433 / DDR466 / DDR500 / DDR533
sont des spécifications d’overclocking.
Slots DDR DIMM
(DDR 1~4, de gauche à droite)
Canal A: DIMM1 & DIMM2 (vert clair)
Canal B: DIMM3 & DIMM4 (violet)
IIntroduction ŕ la DDR SDRAM
La DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM est similaire ŕ la SDRAM conventionnelle,
mais permet par cycle un taux de transfert double. Elle utilise une alimentation 2.5
volts au contraire des 3.3 volts pour la SDR SDRAM, et utilise des modules DIMM 184
broches au lieu des modules DIMM 168 broches utilisé par la SDR SDRAM. Notez que
la DDR SDRAM ne supporte pas l’ECC (error correcting code) et les DIMM enregistré.
Combinaison entre les Modules de DDR
Il faut au moins installer un module DDR DIMM dans un des slots. Chaque
module DIMM supporte jusqu’ŕ 1Go de mémoire. L’utilisateurs peut installer des modules simples ou doubles en fonction de ses besoins. Notez que chaque DIMM peut
fonctionner en simple canal DDR, mais il y a des rčgles si l’on utilise le dual
channel (reportez vous au tableau sur les combinaisons ŕ la page 2-8).
F-13
Carte Mère ATX MS-6728
L’utilisateur peut istaller des modules mémoire de type et de taille différente sur
différent canaux DIMM. Mais, le type et la taille des modules mémoires sont
obligatirement les męme si l’onutilise le dual channel.
Réferrez vous au tableau suivant pour voir les combinaisons de le dual channel.

Cet élément permet de contrôler la fonction MAT Technologie d’accélération mémoire)
du CPU. MAT est une technologie exclusive MSITM’, qui permet d’optimiser le taux de
transfert entre CPU, north bridge et la mémoire, et d’augmenter la bande passante
mémoire d’environ 10%. Choisir [Fast] va activer la fonction MAT. Toutes les mémoires
ne sont pas compatibles avec la fonction MAT. Si le système redémarre quatre fois de
suite, le BIOS va restaurer les paramètres par défaut ([Normal]). Les options: [Normal],
[Fast], [Turbo (MAT)], [Ultra Turbo (MAT)].
MSI Vous Rappelle...
1. Męme si MAT est facile ŕ utiliser, cela n’est pas sans risque.
Nous vous recommandons de vérifier que votre mémoire pet supporter les spécifications du MAT, avant d’utiliser cette fonction.
Si votre systčm est instable ou reboot en mode [Fast], veuillez
passer en mode [Normal]. Pour l’overclocking, veuillez laisser
MAT en mode [Normal].
2. Cependant, pour des raisons de sécurité, il existe 2 fonctions de
protection dans le BIOS:
(a) Appuyez sur "Ins" si vous n’arrivez pas ŕ démarrer suite ŕ un
overclocking et/ou l’utilisation du MAT, cela vous permet de revenir
aux paramčtres par défaut.
(b) Si votre systčme reboot quatre fois, le BIOS se met

Introduction
D.O.T. Range
Le DOT (Dynamic Overclocking Technology) est une fonction overclocking automatique
inclut dans la nouvelle technologie CoreCellTM développée par MSITM. Déstiné à détecter
la charge de travail du CPU lors de l’utilisation de programmes, le DOT permet
d’augmenter la fréquence du CPU automatiquement afin que le programme soit utilisé
dans les meilleures conditions. Quand le CPU ne travaille pas ou que son activité est
faible alors les paramètres par défaut sont utilisés. En règle général, le DOT se met en
action lorsque la demande en puissance est importante comme lorsque vous utilisez
des jeux 3D. Les options sont :
[Disabled]
Désactive la fonction DOT
[Private]
1er niveau d’overclocking
[Sergeant]
2ème niveau d’overclocking
[Captain]
3ème niveau d’overclocking
[Colonel]
4ème niveau d’overclocking
[General]
5ème niveau d’overclocking
[Commander] 6ème niveau d’overclocking
MSI Vous Rappelle...
1. Même si le DOT est plus stable que l’overclocking manuel, cela reste risqué.
Nous vous suggérons de faire un overclocking progressif, et du juger à la vue
des résultats si vous devez désactiver le DOT ou choisir un niveau plus ou
moins elevé d’overclocking.
2. Cependant il existe deux fonctions pour protéger l’utilisateur contre le crash
du système.
- Si l’overclocking devait vous pose un problème, il vous suffit d’appuyer
sur la touche "Ins" lors du boot du PC et ainsi restaurer les valeurs du
BIOS par déaut.
- Si le système reboot accidentellement plus de 4 fois de suite, alors les
valeurs par défaut du Bios seront rétablies.
D.O.T Mode
Cet élément permet de choisir ce que vous allez overclocker. Les options :[CPU Only],
[CPU+AGP].
CPU Ratio Selection
Ce paramètre contrôle le multiplicateur qui est utilisé pour déterminer la vitesse de
l’horloge interne du processeur par rapport à la vitesse d’horloge de la carte mère.
DRAM Frequency (Mhz)
Utilisez ce paramètre pour configurer la fréquence de la DRAM installée. Les options
sont : FSB 400: [266], [Auto], [333], [400], [433], [466], [500].
FSB 533: [266], [333], [Auto], [400], [433], [450], [466], [500], [354 (3:4)].
FSB 800: [266], [333], [400], [Auto], [433], [450], [466], [500], [532],
[501 (4:5)], [533 (3:4)].
MSI Reminds You...
La valeur plus le ration entre parenthèses (CPU: DDR) signifie
overclocking non syncrone.
F-19
Carte Mère ATX MS-6728
Spread Spectrum
Les cartes mères créent des EMI (Electromagnetic Interference). La fonction de Spread
Spectrum reduit ces EMI. Si vous n’avez pas de problème d’EMI, laisser l’option sur
Disabled, ceci vous permet une stabilité du système et des performances optimales.
Dans le cas contraire, choisissez Enabled pour rédiure les EMI. N’oubliez pas de
désactiver cette fonction si vous voulez faire de l’overclocking, afin d’éviter tout problème.
Les options: [Disabled], [Enabled].
Adjust CPU Bus Clock (Mhz)
Cet élément permet de sélectionner la fréquence CPU Bus clock (en MHz) et
d’overclocker le processeur en modifiant le FSB Les options :
FSB 400: 100-355MHz.
FSB 533: 133-500MHz
FSB 800: 200-500MHz
DDR Clock (Mhz)
Permet la lecture uniquement de l’état du clock DDR.
Adjust AGP/PCI Clock (Mhz)
Cet élément permet de sélectionner la fréquence de l’horloge AGP/PCI (en MHz).
DDR Power Voltage
Modifier le voltage DDR peut accroître la vitesse de la DDR. Tout changement peut
entraîner une instabilité, c’est pour cela qu’il n’est pas recommandé de modifier les paramètres à long terme.
AGP Power Voltage
Le voltage AGP est modifiable ici, et permet d’augmenter les performances de l’AGP
par le biais de l’overclocking mais la stablité n’est pas assurée.
MSI Vous Rappelle...
Les paramètres apparaîssent avec différentes couleurs pour : CPU
Voltage (V), DDR Power Voltage and AGP Power Voltage, cela
permet de vérifier si le paramètre convient au système.
Blanc: Paramètre correct
Jaune: Paramètre haute performance
Rouge: Paramètre non recommandé, instabilité possible.

Mot de paCsse Superviseur/Utilisateur
Quand vous choisissez cette fonction, un message comme celui ci-dessous
apparaīt:
Entrez un mot de passe ne dépassant pas 6 caractčres, puis appuyez sur
<Enter>. Le mot de passe entré remplace l’ancien dans la mémoire CMOS. Une
confirmation du mot de passe vous est demandé. Entrez le de nouveau et appuyez
sur <Enter>. Vous pouvez aussi appuyer sur <Esc> pour annuler le mot de passe.
Pour effacer un mot de passe, appuyez sur <Enter> quand vous źtes sur le point
d’entrer le mot de passe. Un message vous indique que le mot de passe est désactivé.
Une fois celui-ci désactivé, le systčme redémarre et vous pouvez alors entrer dans
le setup sans avoir ą entrer un mot de passe.
Quand u mot de passe est en place, vous devez le taper ą chaque fois que vous
voulez entrer dans le setup. Ceci permet d’éviter que des personnes non autorisées
n’éffectuent des changements sur votre machine.
Vous pouvez aussi mettre un mot de passe au moment de la séquence de boot.
Cela permet de restriendre l’accčs ą votre machine aux seules personnes autorisées.
L’élément qui permet de déterminer quand un mot de passe est nécessaire est l’option
PASSWORD CHECK du menu ADVANCED BIOS FEATURES. Si l’option de PASSWORD
CHECK est en position Always, le mot de passe est nécessaire au moment du boot et
au moment de l’entrée dans le setup. En position to Setup, le mot de passe n’est
nécessaire que lors de l’entrée dans le setup.
MSI Vous Rappelle...
Mot de passe Superviseur & Utilisateur :
Mot de passe Superviseur: Permet l’entrée dans le setup et la

Load High Performance/BIOS Setup Defaults
Les deux options du menu principal permettent ŕ l’utilisateur de restaurer les valeurs
du BIOS en choisissant High Performance defaults ou BIOS Setup defaults. Le valeurs
High Performance Defaults sont des valeurs définies par le manufacturier afin d’avoir
un systčme performant (mais le systčme peut ne pas ętre stable). Les valeurs BIOS
Setup Defaults sont des valeurs définies en usine afin d’assurer un systčme stable
et performant.
Quand vous choisissez High Performance Defaults, un message apparaît comme
indiqué ci-dessous::
Appuyer sur ‘Entrér’ chargera les valeurs du BIOS qui activent les meilleures performances du systčme mais qui peuvent provoquer une instabilité.
MSI Reminds You...
The option is for power or overclocking users only. Use of high
performance defaults will tighten most timings to increase the system
performance. Therefore, a high-end system configuration is a must,
which means you need high-quality VGA adapter, RAM and so on. We
don’t recommend that users should apply the high performance
defaults in their regular systems. Otherwise, the system may become unstable or even crash. If the system crashes or hangs after
enabling the feature, please CLEAR CMOS DATA to resolve the problem.
For more information, refer to “Clear CMOS Jumper: JBAT1” in Chapter
2.

Memory
Die Hauptplatine bietet 4 Slots für 184-poligen 2,5V DDR DIMM mit 8 Speicher-bänken.
Sie können DDR266/333/400/433/466/500/533 (433/466/500/533 for overclocking)
SDRAM-Module in den DDR DIMM-Slots (DIMM 1~4) installieren. Für einen
ordnungsgemäßen Betrieb muss mindestens ein DIMM-Modul installiert sein.
DDR DIMM Slots
(DIMM 1~4, from left to right)
Channel A: DIMM1 & DIMM2 (green)
Channel B: DIMM3 & DIMM4 (purple)
Einführung in DDR SDRAM
DDR (Double Data Rate)-SDRAM ähnelt herkömmlichem SDRAM, durch zweimalige
Datenübertragung pro Zyklus ist der Durchsatz jedoch doppelt so hoch. Er arbeitet
mit 2,5 Volt (SDR SDRAM im Gegensatz dazu mit 3,3 Volt) und erfordert 184-Pin-DIMModule statt der von SDR SDRAM benutzten 168-Pin-DIMM-Module. Beachten Sie
bitte, dass DDR SDRAM keinen ECC (Error Correcting Code) und keinen registrierten
DIMM unterstützt.
DDR-Bestückungsregeln
Installieren Sie mindestens ein DIMM-Modul in den Slots. Jeder DIMM-Slot unterstützt
eine Maximalgröße von bis zu 1 GB. Entsprechend ihrem Bedarf können die Benutzer
entweder ein- oder doppelseitige Module installieren. Beachten Sie bitte, dass jeder
DIMM entsprechend mit Einkanal-DDR funktioniert, es für die Benutzung
von Zweikanal-DDR jedoch einige Regeln gibt (schauen Sie bitte in die DDRBestückungstabelle auf S.2-8). Die Benutzer können in den verschiedenkanaligen
DDR DIMMs Speichermodule verschiedener Art und Dichte installieren. Wenn Sie
Zweikanal-DDR benutzen, sind jedoch Speichermodule des gleichen Typs und
der gleichen Dichte notwendig, oder es kann zu Instabilitäten kommen.
G-13

exklusive Technologie von MSI TM’, die dazu dient, die Datentransferrate zwischen
CPU, dem Northbridge Chip und dem Speicher zu optimieren. Zudem wird ein mehr
von bis zu 10% bei Speicherleistung und Bandbreite erzielt. Die Wahl [Fast] aktiviert
MAT. Nehmen Sie bitte zur Kenntnis, das nicht jeder Speicher kompatibel zu MAT ist.
Misslingt dem System vier mal Hochzufahren, wird das BIOS auf die Werkseinstellung
([Normal]) zurückgesetzt. Die möglichen Einstellungen lauten: [Normal], [Fast], [Turbo
(MAT)], [Ultra Turbo (MAT)].
MSI weist darauf hin...
1. Auch wenn MAT leicht zu verwenden ist, schliesst dies auf gar keinen
Fall aus, dass es Risiken gibt. Wir empfehlen zu überprüfen, ob Ihr
Speicher mit der Einstellung bezüglich MAT klar kommt, bevor Sie sich
zum dauerhaften Einsatz entschliessen. Sollte Ihr System instabil werden
oder ohne ersichtlichen Grund Neustarts ausführen, nachdem Sie [Fast]
gewählt haben, wechseln Sie bitte wieder zu [Normal]. Zudem sollten
Sie hier [Normal] als Einstellung wählen, wenn Sie den Front Side Bus
übertakten wollen.
2. Indessen gibt es zwei Sicherheitsmechanismen, die das BIOS vor
Schaden und das Anwendersystem vor Abstürzen bewahren:
(a) Die Taste “Einfg” (Ins). Verweigert das System den Dienst nach dem
Übertakten und/oder mit aktiviertem MAT, können Sie während dem
Hochfahren die Taste “Einfg” (Ins) drücken, um die Werkseinstellungen
des BIOS wieder herzustellen.
(b) Startet Ihr System vier mal hintereinander neu, werden die
Werkseinstellungen des BIOS (Normal) ebenfalls wieder hergestellt.

D.O.T. Range
Dynamic Overclocking Technology (D.O.T) ist die automatische Übertaktungsfunktion,
die in MSI TM’s neu entwickelter CoreCellTM Technologie enthalten ist. Sie dient zur
Feststellung des Auslastungsgrades der CPU, während diese Programme abarbeitet,
und passt die CPU-Frequenz automatisch an. Stellt das Motherboard fest, dass die
CPU Programme ausführt, beschleunigt es automatisch die CPU und erlaubt so eine
flüssige und schnellere Ausführung. Ist die CPU ohne Last oder nur wenig ausgelastet,
werden statt dessen die Voreinstellungen wieder hergestellt. Üblicherweise kommt
die Technologie der dynamischen Übertaktung nur zum Einsatz, wenn große
Datenmengen bewältigt werden müssen, wie das bei 3D Spielen oder der
Videoverarbeitung der Fall ist. In diesen Fällen ist es notwendig, die CPU -Frequenz
zu erhöhen, um die Gesamtleistung des Systems zu erhöhen. Die möglichen
Einstellungen sind:
[Disabled]
Dynamic Overclocking ist ausgeschaltet.
[Private]
Erste Übertaktungsstufe.
[Sergeant]
Zweite Übertaktungsstufe.
[Captain]
Dritte Übertaktungsstufe.
[Colonel]
Vierte Übertaktungsstufe.
[General]
Fünfte Übertaktungsstufe.
[Commander] Sechste Übertaktungsstufe.
MSI weist darauf hin...
Obgleich Dynamic Overclocking Technology stabiler ist, als
manuelles Übertakten, ist es dennoch grundsätzlich riskant. Es ist
empfehlenswert zuerst sicher zu stellen, dass Ihre CPU eine
regelmäßige Übertaktung verträgt. Sollten Sie feststellen, dass Ihr
PC instabil erscheint oder ohne erkennbaren Grund Neustarts
durchführt, it es besser, die dynamische Übertaktung abzuschalten
oder aber eine niedrigere Übertaktungsstufe zu wählen. Im Übrigen
ist zu erwähnen, dass Sie Dynamic Overclocking zuerst abschalten
müssen, bevor Sie Ihr System manuell übertakten.
D.O.T Mode
Hier können Sie den Modus des Dynamic Overclocking wählen. Mögliche Einstellungen:
[CPU Only] (nur CPU), [CPU+AGP].
CPU Ratio Selection
Hier können Sie den Multiplikator wählen, der verwendet wird, um den Kerntakt des
Prozessors in Relation zur externen, bzw. Taktfrequenz des Mainboards festzulegen.
DRAM Frequency (Mhz)
Hier können Sie die Taktfrequenz des eingebauten DRAM Speichers festlegen. Die
möglichen Einstellungen lauten:
PSB 400: [266], [Auto], [333], [400], [433], [466], [500].
PSB 533: [266], [333], [Auto], [400], [433], [450], [466], [500], [354 (3:4)].
PSB 800: [266], [333], [400], [Auto], [433], [450], [466], [500], [532],
[501 (4:5)], [533 (3:4)].
G-19
MS-6728 ATX Mainboard
MSI weist darauf hin...
Die Werte mit einem Verhältnis (CPU: DDR) in Klammern bezeichnet
eine asynchrone Übertaktung.
Spread Spectrum
Pulsiert der Taktgenerator des Motherboards, erzeugen die Extremwerte (Spitzen)
der Pulse EMI (Elektromagnetische Interferenzen). Die “Spread Spectrum” Funktion
reduziert die erzeugten EMI, indem die Pulse so moduliert werden, das die Pulsspitzen
zu flacheren Kurven reduziert werden. Sollten Sie keine Probleme mit Interferenzen
haben, belassen Sie es bei der Einstellung [Disabled] (ausgeschaltet), um bestmögliche
Systemstabilität und -leistung zu gewährleisten. Stellt für sie EMI ein Problem dar,
aktivieren Sie zur Verringerung “Spread Spectrum”. Denken Sie daran “Spread Spectrum” zu deaktivieren, wenn Sie übertakten, da sogar eine leichte Schwankung eine
vorübergehende Taktsteigerung erzeugen kann, die gerade ausreichen mag, um
Ihren übertakteten Prozessor zum einfrieren zu bringen. Mögliche Einstellungen sind:
[Enabled] (eingeschaltet ) und [Disabled] (ausgeschaltet).
Adjust CPU Bus Clock (Mhz)
Gestatet die Frequenz des CPU Bustaktes (in MHz) festzulegen und den Prozessor
zu Übertakten, indem Sie den Takt des FSB erhöhen. Mögliche Einstellungen sind:
PSB 400: 100-355MHz.
PSB 533: 133-500MHz
PSB 800: 200-500MHz
DDR Clock (Mhz)
Dieses Feld dient nur zur Anzeige und gestatte Ihnen, den aktuellen Speichertakt
einzusehen.
Adjust AGP/PCI Clock (Mhz)
Hier kann der AGP/PCI Takt (in MHz) festgelegt werden, indem Sie die AGP/PCI Taktung
auf höhere Frequenzen festlegen.
DDR Power Voltage
Die Spannung des DDR anzuheben, kann diesen beschleunigen. Jede Änderungn
dieser Option kann zu Stabilitätsproblemen führen, deswegen wird von einer
langfristigen Änderung der DDR Spannung ABGERATEN.
AGP Power Voltage
Hier kann die Spannung des AGP angepasst werden, was Ihnen erlaubt die Leistung
Ihrer AGP Grafikkarte beim Übertakten zu erhöhen, wobei jedoch die Stabilität
beeinträchtigt werden kann.
MSI weist darauf hin...
Um Ihnen zu helfen zu überprüfen, ob sie für Ihr System angemessen
sind, werden die Einstellungen unter CPU Voltage (V), DDR Power
Voltage und AGP Power Voltage in unterschiedlichen Farben
angezeigt.
Weiss: Sichere Einstellungen.

der Passwortschutz deaktiviert, fährt das System hoch und Sie können das BIOS
aufrufen, ohne ein Passwort eingeben zu müssen.
Wurde ein Passwort eingerichtet, werden Sie jedesmal, wenn Sie versuchen
das BIOS aufzurufen zur Eingabe aufgefordert. Dies verhindert jegliche unbefugte
Änderung an der Systemkonfiguration.
Zusätzlich können Sie das AMIBIOS bei jedem Systemstart nach einem Passwort
fragen lassen. Dies würde eine unberechtigte Nutzung Ihres Rechners verhindern.
Die Einstellung, wann ein Passwort erforderlich ist lautet PASSWORD CHECK und
findet sich im Menü ADVANCED BIOS FEATURES. Lautet die Einstellung unter PASSWORD CHECK auf [Always], wird das Passwort sowohl beim Hochfahren des Systems, als auch beim Aufruf des BIOS verlangt. Lautet die Einstellung auf [Setup],
erscheint die Aufforderung zur Passworteingabe nur beim Versuch das BIOS
aufzurufen.

Load High Performance/BIOS Setup Defaults
Diese zwei Optionen des Hauptmenüs gestatten es dem Anwender, alle Einstellungen
zurückzusetzen, entweder auf die “High Performance Defaults” oder die “BIOS Setup
Defaults”. Die “High Performance Defaults” sind die Werkseinstellungen für höchste
Leistung, die der Mainboardhersteller festlegt, die jedoch wahrscheinlich zu
Stabilitätsproblemen führen. Die “BIOS Setup Defaults” sind ebenfalls
Werkseinstellungen des Mainboardherstellers, jedoch für den stabilen Betrieb des
Systems.
Wählen Sie “Load High Performance Defaults”, erscheint folgende Meldung:
Drücken der Eingabetaste (Enter) lädt die Werkseinstellungen des BIOS für die höchste
Systemleistung, diese können jedoch zu Stabilitätsproblemen führen.
MSI weist darauf hin...
Diese Option ist nur für leistungshungrige Anwender oder
Übertakter. Der Gebrauch der High Performance Defaults führt zu
scharfen Timings in den meisten Bereichen, um die Systemleistung
zu erhöhen. Aus diesem Grunde ist eine hochklassige Systemkonfiguration unbedingte Voraussetzung, was bedeutet, Sie brauchen
eine Hochleistungsgrafikkarte, -speicher, usw. Wir raten von der
Anwendung der High Performance Defaults in gewöhnlichen
Systemen ab. Sie könnten das System instabil machen oder sogar
zum Absturz führen. Stürzt das System ab, oder bleibt hängen,
nachdem Sie dieses Werkseinstellungen abgerufen haben, LÖSCHEN
SIE BITTE DEN CMOS, um das Problem zu lösen. Weitere
Informationen entnehmen Sie bitte dem Abschnitt “Steckbrücke zur
Löschung des CMOS: JBAT1” in Kapitel 2.
Wählem Sie “Load BIOS Setup Defaults”, dann erscheint eine Meldung, wie folgt:
