BIOS Setup

Introduction

The purpose of this manual is to describe the settings in the Phoenix-Award™

BIOS Setup program on this motherboard. The Setup program allows users to

mod ify the bas ic system configuratio n and save these s ettings to CMOS RAM.

The power of CMOS RAM is supplied by a battery so that it retains the Setup

information when the po wer is turned off.

Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) determines what a computer can do without

accessing programs from a disk. This system controls most of the input and

output devices suc h as keybo ard, mouse, s erial ports and disk drives. BIOS

activates at the first stage o f the boo ting process, lo ad ing and executing the

operating system. Some additional features, such as virus and password

protection or chipset fine-tuning options are also included in BIOS.

The rest of this manual will to guide you through the options and settings in

BIOS Setup.

Plug and Play Support

This PHOENIX-AWARD BIOS supports the Plug and Play Version 1.0A

specification.

!! WARNING !!

For better system performance, the BIOS firmware is being

continuously updated. The BIOS information described in this

manual (Figure 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) is for your reference only.

The actual BIOS information and settings on board may be slightly

different from this manual.

Advanced Chipset Features

This submenu allows you to configure special chipset features.

Integrated Peripherals

This submenu allows you to configure certain IDE hard drive options and

Programmed Input/ Output features.

Power Management Setup

This submenu allows you to configure the power management features.

PnP/PCI Configurations

This submenu allows you to configure certain “Plug and Play” and PCI options.

PC Health Status

This sub menu allows you to monito r the hard ware of your s ystem.

Performance Booster Zone

This submenu allows you to change CPU Vcore Voltage and CPU/PCI clock.

(However, we suggest you to use the default setting. Changing the voltage and

clock improperly may damage the CP U or M/B!)

Load Optimized Defaults

This selection allows you to reload the BIOS when problem occurs during

system booting sequence. These configurations are factory settings optimized

for this s ystem. A confirmation message will be displayed befo re defaults are

set.

If the Supervisor Password is not set, then the User Password will function in

the same way as the Supervisor Password. If the Supervisor Password is set and

the User Password is set, the “User” will only be able to view configurations but

will not be able to change them.

Save & Exit Setup

Save all configuration changes to CMOS (memory) and exit setup. Confirmation

message will bedisplayed before proceeding.
