MSI Special Features
PC Alert 4
The PC Alert 4 is a utility you can find in the CD-ROM disk. The
utility is just like your PC doctor that can detect the following PC
hardware status during real time operation:
* monitor CPU & system temperatures
* monitor fan speeds
* monitor system voltages
If one of the items above is abnormal, the program main screen will be immediately shown on the
screen, with the abnormal item highlighted in red. This will continue to be shown until the
condition returns to the normal status.

Users can use the Adjusting Keys to change the minimum and maximum threshold of each
item for the system to send out a warning message. Click Temperature to select the
temperature modes of either Fahrenheit (℉) or Celsius (℃). The PC Alert4 icon on the Status
Area will show the current CPU temperature.
To better protect the CPU from overheating, a new feature, COOLER XP, has been added to
decrease the temperature of AMD Athlon XP CPU. To do so, simply click COOLER XP and the
screen will show the Cute skin (as shown below) with information about the CPU and chipset.
Right-click the mouse to select the skin you want to switch to.
Please note that the new feature COOLER XP will work only if your mainboard supports AMD
Athlon XP CPU. Items shown on PC Alert 4 vary depending on your system's status.
