AWARD BIOS Setup
3
After you have configured the mainboard, and have assembled the
components, you can turn on the completed system. At this point, run
the software setup to ensure that the system information is correct.
The software setup of the system board is achieved through Basic Input-
Output System (BIOS) programming. You use the BIOS setup program
to tell the operating system what types of devices are connected to your
system board.
The system setup is also called CMOS setup. Normally, you need to run
system setup if either the hardware is not identical with information
contained in the CMOS RAM, or if the CMOS RAM has lost power.
