Resetting CMOS to EEPROM to Factory Defaults
The EPX-C380 can normally be returned to the factory default BIOS configuration by selecting option Load Setup
Defaults on the BIOS Exit menu.
If you have saved EEPROM values that prevent you from accessing BIOS menus, the board can be reset to factory
defaults as follows:
1) Turn the system off.
2) Remove the jumper from pins 7-8 on
JP4
.
3) Turn the system on and enter the BIOS Main Menu using the
F2
key.
4) Select Load Defaults from the Exit menu.
5) Install the jumper on pins 7-8 on
JP4
.
6) Save the restored defaults to CMOS and EEPROM.
Updating the BIOS FLASH PROM
The most recent EPX-C380 BIOS is available on the WinSystems website. However, it is highly recommended that an
Applications Engineer be consulted prior to any BIOS FLASH PROM update. If the BIOS PROM is updated, the steps
described above must be followed to reset the CMOS and EEPROM to the newly loaded factory defaults and to clear the
data from the previous BIOS version.
