5.8 AUTO-DETECT HARD DISKS

This option detects the parameters of an IDE hard disk drive, and automatically enters them into the Standard
CMOS Setup screen.


5.9 PASSWORD SETTING

This BIOS Setup has an optional password feature. The system can be configured so that all users must enter a
password every time the system boots or when BIOS Setup is executed. User can set either a Supervisor
password or a User password.

Select the appropriate password icon (Supervisor or User) from the Security section of the BIOS Setup main menu.
Enter the password and press [Enter]. The screen does not display the characters entered. After the new
password is entered, retype the new password as prompted and press [Enter].

If the password confirmation is incorrect, an error message appears. If the new password is entered without error,
press [Esc] to return to the BIOS Main Menu. The password is stored in CMOS RAM after BIOS completes. The
next time the system boots, you are prompted for the password function is present and is enabled.

5.10 LOAD DEFAULT SETTING

This section permits users to select a group of settings for all BIOS Setup options. You not only can use these
items to quickly set system configuration parameters, but also can choose a group of settings that have a better
chance of working when the system is having configuration related problems.

5.10.1 Auto Configuration with Optimal Setting

The user can load the optimal default settings for the BIOS. The Optimal default settings are best-case values
that should optimize system performance. If CMOS RAM is corrupted, the optimal settings are loaded
automatically.

5.10.2 Auto Configuration with Fail Safe Setting

The user can load the Fail-Safe BIOS Setup option settings by selecting the Fail-Safe item from the Default section
of the BIOS Setup main menu.

option as a diagnostic aid if the system is behaving erratically.

5.11 BIOS EXIT

This section is used to exit the BIOS main menu. After making your changes, you can either save them or exit the
BIOS menu and without saving the new values.
