4. BIOS Setup
NOTE
: To clear the password, simply press Enter when asked to enter a password. Then
the password function is disabled.
4.12 Change Supervisor Password
The BIOS Setup will not be accessible unless you enter the correct password. Select this
function and press “Enter”, the screen will display a start symbol instead of the characters
entered. After the new password is entered, type the new password as prompted and press
“Enter” again.
If the password confirmation is incorrect, an error message appears. If the new password is
typed correctly, press “ESC”. The password is stored in NVRAM after AMIBIOS completes
its cycle. Next time, when you boot the system, a password prompt will appear if this
function is enabled.
4.13 Auto Configuration with Optimal Settings
The chipset defaults settings can provide maximum system performance. While AMI has
designed the custom BIOS to maximize performance, the manufacturer has the right to
change these defaults to meet their needs.
4.14 Auto Configuration with Fail Safe Settings
AMIBIOS will automatically set all AMIBIOS Setup options to a complete set of default
settings when you choose this option. The Fail-Safe settings are designed for maximum
system stability, but not maximum performance. Choose the Fail-Safe AMIBIOS Setup
options if your computer is experiencing system configuration problems.
4.15 Save Settings and Exit
This feature allows the changes to be made to the CMOS setup to be saved. The system will
resume booting after a successful save.
4.16 Exit Without Saving
Abandon all CMOS value change without saving.
