P4X2-A MAINBOARD SERIES
Page 46
There is CMOS memory on the mainboard that can be used to store the system settings. If
you don't know how to use the Award BIOS CMOS Setup Utility to select the settings, you
may use this field to load the optimized defaults which are defined in the system BIOS.
Our
engineer recommends the Optimized Defaults.
If this option is selected it will give a
series of parameters that will ensure the reliability and performance of your PC.
If you lose your CMOS data or you don’t know how to complete the setup procedure, you
may use this option to load the Optimized default values from the BIOS default table.
If the CMOS data is corrupted, or if you selected some CMOS settings and find that the PC
system becomes very unstable, you should try to load the optimized default values first and
then re-configure the BIOS.

Set Supervisor Password
The “SUPERVISOR PASSWORD” is for you to control unauthorized access to your BIOS
CMOS Setup or Booting into the your PC system. The Supervisor Password option is used
together with the Security Option in section 4.5.
When "Setup" is selected in the Security Option:
If you want to change any BIOS setting, you will have to key-in the Supervisor Password so
that you can start the BIOS CMOS Setup Utility and change the system setting.
When "System" is selected in Security Option:
Whenever you turn on the PC, it will request the user to enter the Password in order to boot
up your system. Without the correct password, the PC system will stop and the operating
system will not be loaded.
