Using the BIOS Setup Utility
Setting the system board jumpers
The system board has one configurable jumper to control specific BIOS
features. Each feature is described in the topic that follows.
The system board jumper J11 lets you enable the system password, recover
the BIOS ROM, and clear the (non-volatile RAM) NVRAM. (See “System board”
on page 7 for the location of the jumper.)
Setting a jumper to “on” means that you have installed a jumper on the
corresponding pins as shown in the table that follows. Conversely, if no
jumper is installed, it is indicated as “off”.
The following table shows the settings required to configure each jumper
setting. Make sure you turn off the computer and unplug the power cord
before moving any jumpers.
