Using BIOS

When you start the Setup Utility, the main menu appears. The main menu of the
Setup Utility displays a list of the options that are available. A highlight indicates
which option is currently selected. Use the cursor arrow keys to move the highlight
to other options. When an option is highlighted, execute the option by pressing
.

Some options lead to pop-up dialog boxes that prompt you to verify that you wish to
execute that option. Other options lead to dialog boxes that prompt you for informa-
tion.

Some options (marked with an icon ) lead to submenus that enable you to change
the values for the option. Use the cursor arrow keys to scroll through the items in the
submenu.

The default BIOS setting for this motherboard apply for most conditions
with optimum performance. We do not suggest users change the default
values in the BIOS setup and take no responsibility to any damage caused
by changing the BIOS settings.

Resetting the Default CMOS Values

When powering on for the first time, the POST screen may show a “CMOS Settings
Wrong” message. This standard message will appear following a clear CMOS data
at factory by the manufacturer. You simply need to Load Default Settings to reset
the default CMOS values.

In this manual, default values are enclosed in parenthesis. Submenu items are
denoted by an icon .

Note: Changes to system hardware such as different CPU, memories, etc. may
also trigger this message.
