Enable/Disable onboard SCSI (JP10)
If using onboard SCSI, close JP10 (default). Otherwise, set JP10 open for disabling the
onboard SCSI.
Clear CMOS (JP3)
If you want to clear CMOS, unplug the AC power supply first, close JP3 (pin1& pin2) once,
set JP6 back to normal status with pin2 & pin3 connected, then power on the system.
BIOS Write Protection Jumper (JAV)
The BIOS of the mainboard is contained inside the Flash ROM. Severe viruses such as CIH
virus are so dangerous that it may overwrite the BIOS fo the mainboard. if the BIOS has
been damaged, the system will be unable to boot. So we provide hardware and software
solution which protects the system BIOS from being attacked by such viruses.
There are two choices which implements BIOS Write Protection
1. Set the jumper (JAV) as close, the BIOS can not be overwirtten.
2. Set the jumper (JAV) as open, meanwhile set “ Flash Write Protect” as Enabled in
AWARD BIOS CMOS Setup. In this way, the BIOS can not be overwritten, but the DMI
information can be updated.
if the jumperJAV is set as close (default), meanwhile disabling the “Flash Write Protect” item
from “ BIOS Features Setup” in AWARD BIOS CMOS Setup, allows you to flash the BIOS to
the Flash ROM; if the jumper JAV is set as open, you will be unable to flash the BIOS to the
mainboard.
