BIOS Setup

3.1.8 Load Fail-Safe Defaults

The “Load Fail-Safe Defaults” option loads the troubleshooting
default values permanently stored in the ROM chips. These settings
are not optimal and turn off all high performance features. You
should use these values only if you have hardware problems.
Highlight this option in the main menu and press <Enter>.

If you want to proceed, type <Y> and press <Enter>. The default
settings will be loaded.
