This chapter describes how to set BIOS configuration IA31 Motherboard User Manual 40 CHAPTER AMI BIOS Setup 7
Chapter 7 7.1 AMI BIOS SETUP Starting Setup Your computer comes with a hardware configuration program called BIOS Setup that allows you to view and set system parameters. The BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) is a layer of software, called ‘firmware’, that translates instructions from software (such as the operating system) into instructions that the computer hardware can understand. The BIOS settings also identify installed devices and establish special features.
options that can be configured. Grayed-out options cannot be configured; options in blue can be. The right frame displays the key leg- end. Above the key legend is an area reserved for a text message. When an option is selected in the left frame, it is highlighted in white. Often a text message will accompany it. 7.2 System Overview Use this option to change the system time and date. Highlight System Time or System Date using the keys. Enter new values through the keyboard.
7.3 Advanced Setting CPU Configuration Press “Enter” to CPU Configuration setting. CPU configuration differs from writing an executable program. It is equivalent to setting dip switches or jumpers on a circuit board.
to change this configuration. IDE/SATA Configuration IDE Channel IO Master While entering setup, the BIOS automatically detects the presence of IDE devices. This displays the status of IDE device auto-detection.
IDE Channel IO Slave While entering setup, the BIOS automatically detects the presence of IDE devices. This displays the status of IDE device auto-detection. Type Select the type of IDE drive. Setting to Auto allows automatic selection of the appropriate IDE device type. Select CDROM if you are specifically configuring a CD-ROM drive.
