3.1 BIOS Setup Program
This motherboard supports a programmable firmware chip that you can update using
the provided utility. Use the BIOS Setup program when you are installing a mother-
board, reconfiguring your system, or prompted to “Run Setup”. This section explains
how to configure your system using this utility.
Even if you are not prompted to use the Setup program, you can change the configu-
ration of your computer in the future. For example, you can enable the security pass-
word feature or change the power management settings. This requires you to
reconfigure your system using the BIOS Setup program so that the computer can
recognize these changes and record them in the CMOS RAM of the firmware hub.
The firmware hub on the motherboard stores the Setup utility. When you start up the
computer, the system provides you with the opportunity to run this program. Press
<Del> during the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) to enter the Setup utility; otherwise,
POST continues with its test routines.
If you wish to enter Setup after POST, restart the system by pressing
<Ctrl+Alt+Delete>, or by pressing the reset button on the system chassis. You can
also restart by turning the system off and then back on. Do this last option only if the
first two failed.
The Setup program is designed to make it as easy to use as possible. Being a menu-
driven program, it lets you scroll through the various sub-menus and make your
selections from the available options using the navigation keys.
3.1.1 Legend Box
The keys in the legend bar allow you to navigate through the various setup menus.
