manual abstract
• Easy Boost is an easy-to-use auto-overclocking function (Note 1). When activated, the system automatically experiments all sorts of overclocking configurations till it hangs. After restart, the system will operate with the optimum configurations tested to let the CPU reach the best overclocking performance. • Core Boost (Note 2) is configurable only in Advanced mode. With Core Boost (Note 3) enabled, you can unlock hidden CPU cores or disable the cores that have been activated (Note 4). • Save allows you to save the current settings to a new profile (.txt file). • Load allows you to load previous settings from a profile. After making changes in Easy mode/Advanced mode, be sure to click Set for these changes to take effect or click Default to restore to default values. The Graphics tab allows you to change the core clock and memory clock for your ATI or NVIDIA graphics card. The Smart tab allows you to specify a Smart Fan mode. Smart Fan allows the CPU fan speed to be changed linearly based on the CPU temperature thresholds you set. The HW Monitor tab allows you to monitor hardware temperature, voltage and fan speed and set temperature/fan speed alarm. You can choose the alert sound from the buzzer or use your own sound file (.wav file). (Note 1) Before enabling Easy Boost, right-click the EasyTune 6 icon in the notification area. Select Auto overclock last tune on the next reboot to allow the system to work with the optimum overclocking configuration after restart. (Note 2) This item appears only if you install a CPU that supports this feature. (Note 3) Restart the computer after enabling Core Boost for the settings to take effect. (Note 4) The number of CPU cores that can be enabled/disabled depends on the CPU being used. Available functions in EasyTune 6 may differ by motherboard model. Grayed-out area(s) indicates that the item is not configurable or the function is not supported. Incorrectly doing overclock/overvoltage may result in damage to the hardware components such as CPU, chipset, and memory and reduce the useful life of these components. Before you do the overclock/overvoltage, make sure that you fully know each function of EasyTune 6, or system instability or other unexpected results may occur. 4-4 Q-Share Q-Share is an easy and convenient data sharing tool. After configuring your LAN connection settings and Q-Share, you are able to share your data with computers on the same network, making full use of Internet resources.

Instructions: In the main menu, click the Config button to open the Smart Recovery Preference dialog box. The Smart Recovery Preference dialog box: Button Function Enable Enables automatic daily backup (Note 2) Schedule Sets a daily backup schedule Capacity Sets the percentage of hard drive space used for saving backups (Note 3) • The hard drive must have more than 1 GB of capacity. • Each partition can accommodate up to 64 backups (the actual limit depends on the size of each partition). When this limit is reached, the oldest backup will be ovewritten. Instructions for copying files/folders from a backup: To browse through your backups made at different time, select a backup time using the time scroll bar on the right or at the bottom of the screen. If you want to copy back a file/folder, select the file/folder you wish to copy and click the Copy button. The files/folders listed on the screen are read-only so you cannot edit their contents. (Note 1) The changed data refers to the data that has been modified, deleted, or newly added since the last backup. (Note 2) The system will make an automatic backup on changed data only once everyday. If the computer is turned on for a long time, the backup will be performed at the scheduled backup time. If the computer is turned off before the scheduled backup time, the backup will be performed on the next boot. (Note 3) We recommend that you pre...
