CHAPTER 3 BIOS SETUP
3.1 BIOS Setup
Award BIOS has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system
configuration. This information is stored in CMOS RAM. So it can retain the Setup information
when the power is turned off. When the battery of CMOS fails, it will cause the data to be lost.
When this happens, you should set up your configuration parameters again after replacing the
battery.Please refer to Section 1.1,Essential Handing Precautions (Page1.)
