Using BIOS
Load Optimized Defaults Option
This option opens a dialog box that lets you install optimized defaults for all
appropriate items in the Setup Utility. Press <Y> and then <Enter> to install the
defaults. Press <N> and then <Enter> to not install the defaults. The optimized
defaults place demands on the system that may be greater than the performance
level of the components, such as the CPU and the memory. You can cause fatal
errors or instability if you install the optimized defaults when your hardware
does not support them. If you only want to install setup defaults for a specific
option, select and display that option, and then press <F7>.
Set Password
When this function is selected, the following message appears at the center of
the screen to assist you in creating a password.
ENTER PASSWORD
Type the password, up to eight characters, and press <Enter>. The password
typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory.
You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press
<Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection.
To disable password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter
password. A message will confirm the password being disabled. Once the
password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter BIOS Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED
If you have selected “System” in “Security Option” of “BIOS Features Setup”
menu, you will be prompted for the password every time the system reboots or
any time you try to enter BIOS Setup.
If you have selected “Setup” at “Security Option” from “BIOS Features Setup”
menu, you will be prompted for the password only when you enter BIOS Setup.
Supervisor Password has higher priority than User Password. You can use Super-
visor Password when booting the system or entering BIOS Setup to modify all
settings. Also you can use User Password when booting the system or entering
BIOS Setup but can not modify any setting if Supervisor Password is enabled.
Save & Exit Setup Option
Highlight this item and press <Enter> to save the changes that you have made
in the Setup Utility and exit the Setup Utility. When the Save and Exit dialog
box appears, press <Y> to save and exit, or press <N> to return to the main
menu:
Exit Without Saving
Highlight this item and press <Enter> to discard any changes that you have
made in the Setup Utility and exit the Setup Utility. When the Exit Without
Saving dialog box appears, press <Y> to discard changes and exit, or press
<N> to return to the main menu.
If you have made settings that you do not want to save, use the “Exit
Without Saving” item and press <Y> to discard any changes you have
made.
