Setting the jumpers
The system board jumper (J7B1) lets you clear passwords, set the
processor/bus speed, and recover the BIOS. The table below shows the
settings required to perform those tasks, and the following text provides
step-by-step instructions for each mode.
The following figure shows the location of the jumper on the system board.
