Clear CMOS Jumper: CLR_CMOS

The motherboard uses the CMOS RAM to store all

the set parameters. The CMOS can be cleared by

removing the CMOS jumper.

How to clear CMOS?

1. Turn off the AC power supply and connect pins 1

and 2 together using the jumper cap.

2. Return the jumper setting to normal (pins 2 and

3 together with the jumper cap).

3. Turn the AC power supply back on.
