The section below the setup items of the Main Menu displays the control keys for this menu. At the bottom of the
Main Menu just below the control keys section, there is another section, which displays information on the

NOTE:
If your computer cannot boot after making and saving system changes with Setup, the Award BIOS
supports an override to the CMOS settings that resets your system to its default.
We strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the chipset defaults. These defaults
have been carefully chosen by both Award and your system manufacturer to provide the absolute
maximum performance and reliability.
