Comments
- Reading or writing files on IDE drives is not supported with DigiUtils and associated software.
- You will need to purchase a fan kit to properly cool your system. The HP product model is DY648A.
Importante
You must set your system's full speed chassis fans to Enable. Failure to do so can cause your system to overheat and potentially fail. To enable the full speed chassis fans:
- Restart your computer. During the boot up, press F10 to access the BIOS setup.
- Choose Advanced > Thermalherm.
- Set the Full Speed Chassis Fanssis Fans to En.
- Press F10 to save the setting.
- Choose File > Save Changes to exit the BIOS setup.
