Now get ready to turn on your device by following the steps below. 1. Mount your motherboard to the chassis frame and close the case cover. 2.
4. BIOS Setup 4. BIOS Setup The motherboard uses AWARD BIOS, stored in a flash EEPROM. All of the configuration information stored in the CMOS. 4.1 BIOS Setup The AWARD BIOS is immediately activated when you first turn on the computer. The BIOS reads system configuration information in CMOS RAM and begins the process of checking the system and configuring it through the Power-On-Self-Test (POST).
4. BIOS Setup 4.2 Main Setup Menu When you enter the Award BIOS CMOS Setup Utility, a Main Menu appears on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from several Setup functions and two exit choices. Use the arrow keys to select among the items and press key to accept and enter the submenu. Following is a brief summary of each Setup category. Menu Item Main Advanced Advanced BIOS Features Advanced Chipset Features Description Options in the original PC AT-compatible BIOS.
4. BIOS Setup 4.3 Standard CMOS Features Menu In the Standard CMOS Menu, you can set the system clock and calendar, record disk drive parameters and the video subsystem type, and select the type of errors that stop the BIOS POST. Date The BIOS determines the day of the week from the other date information. This field is for information only. Press the left or right arrow key to move to the desired field (date, month, year).
4. BIOS Setup Hard Disks The BIOS supports up to four IDE drives. This section does not show information about other IDE devices, such as a CD-ROM drive, or about other hard drive types, such as SCSI drives. NOTE: We recommend that you select type AUTO for all drives. The BIOS can automatically detect the specifications and optimal operating mode of almost all IDE hard drives. When you select type AUTO for a hard drive, the BIOS detect its specifications during POST, every time the system boots.
