The two options on the main menu allow users to restore all of the BIOS
settings to Optimal defaults or Fail-Safe defaults. The Optimal Defaults are the
default values set by the mainboard manufacturer for the best system perform-
ance but probably will cause a stability issue. The Fail-Safe Defaults are the
default values also set by the mainboard manufacturer for stable performance
of the mainboard.
When you select Load Optimal Defaults, a message as below appears:
Pressing ‘Y’ loads the default BIOS values that enable the best system
performance but may lead to a stability issue.
When you select Load Fail-Safe Defaults, a message as below appears:
Pressing ‘Y’ loads the default values that are factory settings for stable system
performance.
