6-2 Memory Configuration and BIOS Settings
BIOS Settings
The CMOS Setup Utility is a program that allows you to modify basic
system configuration that is stored on the motherboard’s BIOS chip.
For the motherboard to function properly, this information must be
intact and accurate. Normally, you will not need to use this utility once
your system is set up.
To change BIOS settings in CMOS
Do not change the BIOS settings unless you have a good
understanding of how they work and what they do. Incorrect
BIOS settings may cause your system to stop functioning.
1. Switch on your computer.
2. During the memory check, press the <Delete> key.
The CMOS Setup Utility menu similar to Figure 6-1 on page
6-3 appears.
If you did not respond in time, restart your system by pressing
the Reset button on your computer.
3. To select a menu option, use the arrow keys to browse to the
desired option and then press <Enter>.
