Setting
It is assumed that users have correctly adopted modules and connected all the
devices cables required before turning on ATX power. 240-pin DDR3 Memory,
keyboard, mouse, SATA hard disk, VGA connector, device power cables, ATX
accessories are good examples that deserve attention. With no assurance of properly
and correctly accommodating these modules and devices, it is very possible to
encounter system failures that result in malfunction of any device.
To make sure that you have a successful start with WADE-8011/WADE-8012, it is
recommended, when going with the boot-up sequence, to hit “DEL” key and enter
the BIOS setup
menu to tune up a stable BIOS configuration so that you can wake up your system far
well.
Loading the default optimal setting
When prompted with the main setup menu, please scroll down to “
Restore
Defaults
”, press “
Enter
” and select “
Yes
” to load in default optimal BIOS setup. This
will force your BIOS setting back to the initial factory configuration. It is
recommended to do this so you can be sure the system is running with the BIOS
setting that Portwell has highly endorsed. As a matter of fact, users can load the
default BIOS setting any time when system appears to be unstable in boot up
sequence.
