The included CD-ROM, apart from the drivers, also contains some applications and other software:

- PC Probe utility

ASUS PC Probe is a very simple utility that monitors vital information in the computer such as fan rototation speed, voltages and temperature. It also gives system information about hard disk space, memory usage, CPU type and processor speed. It resides in the taskbar and provides audio warnings (through the PC speakers) if certain thresholds such as temperature and voltage have been exceeded. If your system is overclocked, remember to raise the appropriate warning limits or face frequent warning pop-ups.

- Asus Update utility

This is also a very simple utility for updating the BIOS on your board with the options presented below.
