Auto Configuration with Optimal Settings
This option allows you to load the Optimal default settings. These settings are best-case values
which should provide the best performance characteristics. If CMOS RAM is corrupted, the Opti-
mal settings are loaded automatically.
If you select the Auto Configuration with Optimal Settings option, the following window displays:
Load high performance settings (Y/N) ? N
You have two options:
• Press ‘ N ‘ and <Enter> to leave the current values in effect.
• Press ‘ Y ‘ and <Enter> to load the Optimal default settings.
Auto Configuration with Fail Safe Settings
This option allows you to load the Fail Safe default settings when you cannot boot your computer
successfully. These settings are more likely to configure a workable computer. They may not
provide optimal performance, but are the most stable settings. You may use this option as a diag-
nostic aid if your system is behaving erratically. Select the Fail Safe settings and then try to
diagnose the problem after the computer boots.
If you select the Auto Configuration with Fail Safe Settings option, the following window dis-
plays:
Load fail-safe settings (Y/N) ? N
You have two options:
• Press ‘ N ‘ and <Enter> to leave the current values in effect.
• Press ‘ Y ‘ and <Enter> to load the Fail Safe default settings.
Save Settings and Exit
The features selected and configured in the Setup screens are stored in the CMOS when this option
is selected. The CMOS checksum is calculated and written to the CMOS. Control is then passed
back to the AMIBIOS and the booting process continues, using the new CMOS values.
If you select the SAVE SETTINGS AND EXIT option, the following window displays:
Save current settings and exit (Y/N) ? Y
You have two options:
• Press ‘ N ‘ and <Enter> to return to the AMIBIOS Setup Main Menu.
• Press ‘ Y ‘ and <Enter> to save the system parameters and continue with the booting
process.
