Normally JP6 will be in the 1-2 position, this will connect the battery to the southbridge of
the chipset which contains the CMOS memory. If JP6 is temporarily set to 2-3 this will
interrupt the battery electricity flow, and the CMOS memory will be erased, this will
however only work if the power supply is not switched on. Now at the next reboot the
BIOS will automatically load the CMOS default values.
Take the following steps to clear CMOS memory:
Take the power cord from the power supply.
Temporarily set JP6 to 2 – 3, and set it back to 1 – 2.
Put the power cord back and restart the system, the default values will
be loaded.
