    Nothing should need changing in the BIOS initially.

    Exctract from the manual.

    CPU Host Frequency (Mhz)
    Allows you to manually set the CPU host frequency. This item is configurable only if the CPU
    Host Clock Control option is enabled. The adjustable range is from 100 MHz to 1200 MHz.
    For an 800 MHz FSB CPU, set this item to 200 MHz.
    For a 1066 MHz FSB CPU, set this item to 266 MHz.
    For a 1333 MHz FSB CPU, set this item to 333 MHz.
    For a 1600 MHz FSB CPU, set this item to 400 MHz.
    Important It is highly recommended that the CPU frequency be set in accordance with the CPU
    specifications.

    Stuff like this is set automatically. It is usually only needed when overclocking.

    ok fair enough no bios config needed to get os running

    Are these the steps then?
    Install Hardware, power up.
    Make Partion.
    Install Os
    Install Drivers.
    Finish
