GD3080 User Guide
The BIOS Setup Utility allows you to configure your computer’s basic
settings. When you turn your computer on, the system reads this
information to initialize the hardware so that it will operate correctly.
You can use the BIOS Setup Utility to change your computer’s start-
up configuration. For example, you can change your system’s security
routine.
Starting the BIOS Setup Utility
You can only start the Setup Utility shortly after the computer
has been turned on. When you see the message “Press Enter
button to enter SETUP” display at the bottom of the screen,
press the OK/ENTER key
.
You will then see the following screen:
Use your LINE UP
or LINE DOWN hot keys to highlight
“CMOS Setup Menu” and press the OK/ ENTER key. The
system will start the Setup Utility and display the main menu
of the utility.
Caution Incorrect settings can cause your system to malfunction. To correct mistakes, return to Setup and restore the Setup
Defaults by going to the Exit Menu and selecting “Load Optimal Defaults”.
