Administrator Password

Allows you to configure an administrator password. Press <Enter> on this item, type the password, and

then press <Enter>. You will be requested to confirm the password. Type the password again and press

<Enter>. You must enter the administrator password (or user password) at system startup and when entering

BIOS Setup. Differing from the user password, the administrator password allows you to make changes to

all BIOS settings.

User Password

Allows you to configure a user password. Press <Enter> on this item, type the password, and then press

<Enter>. You will be requested to confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>.

You must enter the administrator password (or user password) at system startup and when entering BIOS

Setup. However, the user password only allows you to make changes to certain BIOS settings but not all.

To cancel the password, press <Enter> on the password item and when requested for the password, enter

the correct one first. When prompted for a new password, press <Enter> without entering any password.

Press <Enter> again when prompted to confirm.

Initial Display Output

Specifies the first initiation of the monitor display from the installed PCI Express graphics card or the onboard

graphics.

IGFX

Sets the onboard graphics as the first display.

PCIe 1 Slot

Sets the graphics card on the PCIEX16 slot as the first display. (Default)

XHCI Mode

Allows you to determine the operating mode for the xHCI controller in OS.

Smart Auto

This mode is available only when the BIOS supports the xHCI controller in the pre-boot

environment. This mode is similar to

Auto

, but it adds the capability to route the ports

to xHCI or EHCI according to setting used in previous boots (for non-G3 boot) in the

pre-boot environment. This allows the use of USB 3.0 devices prior to OS boot. xHCI

controller enabling and rerouting should follow the steps in

Auto

, when previous boot

routs ports to EHCI. Note: This is the recommended mode when BIOS has xHCI pre-

boot support. (Default)
