AWORD BIOS SETUP
3.2 Standard CMOS Setup
This “Standard CMOS Setup” option allows you to record some basic system hardware
configuration and set the system clock and error handling. If the motherboard is already installed
in a working system, you will not need to select this option anymore. However, if the configuration
stored in the CMOS memory on the board gets lost or damaged, or if you change your system
hardware configuration, you will need to re-specify the configuration values. The configuration
values usually get lost or corrupted when the power of the onboard CMOS battery weakens.
The above screen provides you with a list of options. At the bottom of this screen are the control
keys for use on this screen. Take note of these keys and their respective uses.
User-configurable fields appear in a different color. If you need information on the selected field,
press the <F1> key. The help menu will then appear to provide you with the information you
need. The memory display at the lower right-hand side of the screen is read-only and
automatically adjusts accordingly.
