The BIOS is the communication bridge between hardware and software, correctly setting up the BIOS pa-
rameters is critical to maintain optimal system performance. Power on the computer, when the message
“Press or to enter setup. Press to enter boot menu.”
appears at the bottom of the screen, you can press or key to enter Setup.
Use the arrow right/left keys to select a specific function and go to the submenu. Each function is ex-

so on. They all can be viewed or set up through this menu.
Advanced
The advanced system features can be set up through this menu.
Boot
Boot features can be set up through this menu. You can set the boot device priority and enable “Quiet
Boot” feature here.
Security
The Administrator/User password can be set up through this menu to prevent unauthorized use of
your computer. If you set a password, the system will ask you to key in correct password before boot
or access to Setup.
Save&Exit
The optimal performance settings can be loaded through this menu. However, it may offer better
performance in some ways (such as less I/O cards, less memory ...etc.), still, it may cause problem
if you have more memory or I/O cards installed. It means, if your system loading is heavy, set to
optimal default may sometimes come out an unstable system. What you need now is to adjust BIOS
setting one by one, trial and error, to find out the best setting for your current system. You also can
save or discard the changes and exit BIOS setup here.
We do not suggest that you change the default values in the BIOS Setup, and we shall
not be responsible for any damage which resulted from the change you made.
