Chapter   3

Award BIOS

This chapter tells how to configure the system parameters.  You may update
your BIOS via AWARD Flash Utility.

Important:  Because the BIOS code is the most
often changed part of the mainboard design, the
BIOS information contained in this chapter
(especially the Chipset Setup parameters) may be
a little different compared to the actual BIOS that
came with your mainboard.
