BIOS Setup
Upgrade BIOS
The BIOS can be upgraded from a diskette with the Award Flash
utility — AWDFLASH.EXE. The BIOS image file, and update
utility are available from IWILL’s WEB site:

Enter BIOS setup program
Power-on the system by either pressing the Power-On button, or
by using any of the power-on features provided by the
motherboard. Then, press the <Del> key after the Power-On Self
Test (POST), and before the scanning of IDE devices. Simply
look for the message “Press DEL to enter SETUP” displayed at
the bottom of the screen during the boot up process. If the
message disappears before you’ve had a chance to respond, you
can restart the system by turning off the system power then turn it
on again, or by pressing the “RESET” button on the system case,
or pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Del> keys simultaneously.
BIOS Setup
Generally, the BIOS default settings have been care-
fully chosen to maximize performance and reliability.
It is inadvisable to change any setting without full un-
derstanding of the effect.
Do not change any setting
unless you fully understand what it will do. We also
strongly recommend that you
do not update the BIOS
if the system works correctly.
