Overview of Jumper Settings
The system motherboard inside your computer contains a block of twenty-four pins
and eight plastic jumpers. Different pins and jumper configurations make it possible
to change how the computer functions. This section of the manual should give you
all the information you will require making any changes.
Changes you can make, in this way, are as follows:
•
=
Reset the CMOS RAM settings to the default values.
•
=
Clear the system password.
•
=
Recover from a corrupted BIOS during a BIOS upgrade.
•
=
Write Protect Boot Block.
•
=
Enable/Disable FRB timer.
•
=
Bypass the chassis intrusion detection.
•
=
BMC forced update mode
•
=
BMC write enable
CAUTION!
Never remove jumpers using large pliers as this can damage the pins. The best way
to remove a jumper is to use a small pair of tweezers or fine needle-nosed pliers.
Never remove a jumper when the computer is switch on. Always switch the
computer off first.
