SuperBoot
SuperBoot technology greatly reduces the long boot process time of computers.
A BIOS without SuperBoot has to perform many routines every time when the
system starts, such as checking the system core and initializing system
peripherals. Now with SuperBoot, a PC can bootup without any unnecessary.
SuperBoot is quite easy to use: choose the right option in CMOS setup (refer to
BIOS features), SuperBoot saves the information when the PC boots up the first
time, and restores the parameters for the system, thus letting the PC boot freely
and rapidly.
Notes:
1. If the previous boot was not completed then the BIOS will perform a normal
POST, even if SuperBoot is enabled.
2. No matter whether SuperBoot is enabled or not, the BIOS will perform a
normal POST if the CMOS fails.
