Using BIOS
The BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) Setup Utility displays the system’s
configuration status and provides you options to set system parameters. When
you power on the system, BIOS enters the Power-On Self Test (POST) routines,
please
press <DEL> or F2 to enter setup . When powering on for the first time, the
POST screen may show a “CMOS Settings Wrong” message. Please enter BIOS and
choose “Load Default Settings” to reset the default CMOS values. (Changes to
system hardware such as different CPU, memories, etc. may also trigger this
message.)
