Setting Jumper Switches
Jumpers are sets of pins connected together with jumper caps. The
jumper caps change the way the mainboard operates by changing
the electronic circuits on the mainboard. If a jumper cap connects
two pins, we say the pins are SHORT. If a jumper cap is removed
from two pins, the pins are OPEN.
Jumper JP5: Clear CMOS Memory
Use this jumper to clear the contents of the CMOS memory. You
may need to clear the CMOS memory if the settings in the Setup
Utility are incorrect and prevent your mainboard from operating. To
clear the CMOS memory, disconnect all the power cables from the
mainboard and then move the jumper cap into the CLEAR setting
for a few seconds.
