Chapter 3 Award BIOS SETUP
3.1 Starting Setup
AwardBIOS™ has a built -in setup program that allows users to modify the basic
system configuration. The information is stored in battery -backed Flash so that it
retains the setup information even if the system power is turned off.
Note:
Values for the various setup items that appear on your own screen (including
default values) may not be the same as the values shown on the screen figures in
this chapter. This is because the BIOS is revised and updated from time to time.
If in doubt, check Winmate website for the latest BIOS versions and related
information.
The system BIOS is managing and executing a variety of hardware
related functions in the system, including:

System date and time

Hardware execution sequence

Power management function

Allocation of system resources
