BIOS Setup Utility 

Introduction 

The BIOS Setup Utility records settings and information about 
your computer such as the date and time, the kind of hardware 
installed, and various configuration settings. Your computer uses 
this information to initialize all the components when booting up 
and functions as the basis for coordination between system 
components. 
 
If the Setup Utility configuration is incorrect, it may cause the 
system to malfunction. It can even stop your computer from 
booting properly. If this happens, you can use the clear CMOS 
jumper to clear the CMOS memory used to store the configuration 
information. 

 

You can run the setup utility and manually make changes to the 
configuration. You might need to do this to configure some of the 
hardware that you install on or connect to the mainboard, such as 
the CPU, system memory, disk drives, etc.
