3. BIOS Setup Utility
* This chapter tells how to change the system settings through the BIOS Setup menus.
Detailed descriptions of the BIOS parameters are also provided.
(1) BIOS setup program
This motherboard supports a programmable firmware chip that you can update using the provided utility described in
section “2.1 Managing and updating your BIOS.”
Use the BIOS Setup program when you are installing a motherboard, 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 configuration of your computer in the
future. For example, you can enable the security password 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.

Settings item under the Exit Menu. See section “2.7 Exit Menu.”
