Advanced Processor Options
Intel Virtualization Technology
Virtualization enhanced by Intel Virtualization Technology will allow a platform
to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions.
With virtualization, one computer system can function as multiple “virtual” systems.
Thermal Management 2 (auto detect function)
This setting specifies the thermal technologies implemented in the Intel
®
processor.
Execute Disable Bit
Intel's Execute Disable Bit functionality can prevent certain classes of malicious
"buffer overflow" attacks when combined with a supporting operating system.
This functionality allows the processor to classify areas in memory by where
application code can execute and where it cannot. When a malicious worm
attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor disables code execution,
preventing damage or worm propagation.
Discrete MTRR Allocation
If the system has 4GB of memory or greater, Discrete MTRR Allocation must be
enabled in the BIOS Memory Cache section. Otherwise, system performance
will be affected.
Processor Power Management
This setting offers power management options for the processor.
