Avoid changing the default settings:
We strongly suggest you contact IBASE for technical support before you make
any changes in BIOS. Please be noted that the device may malfunction if you
change the BIOS settings improperly.
4.1 Introduction
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in the ROM of your computer
system supports Intel® processors. The BIOS provides critical low-level
support for standard devices such as disk drives, serial ports and parallel
ports. It also provides password protection as well as special support for
detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.
4.2 BIOS Setup
The BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the system
configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores the Setup
utility. When you turn on the computer, the BIOS is immediately activated.
Press the <Del> key immediately to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit
late pressing the <Del> key, POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its
test routines, thus preventing you from invoking the Setup. You can also press
<F7> to call the pop-up Boot menu immediately.
If you still need to enter Setup, restart the system by p
ressing the ”Reset”
button or simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys.
You can also restart by turning the system Off and back On again.
The following message will appear on the screen:
Press <DEL> to Enter Setup
In general, press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to select, the
<PgUp> and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help, and <Esc> to
quit.
When you enter the BIOS Setup utility, the
Main Menu screen will appear on
the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup functions
and exit choices.
Warning: It is strongly recommended that you avoid making any changes to
the chipset defaults. These defaults have been carefully chosen by
both AMI and your system manufacturer to provide the absolute
maximum performance and reliability. Changing the defaults could
make the system unstable and crash in some cases.
