Getting Help

Pressing [F1] displays a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and the possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window, press [ESC] or the [F1] key again.

In Case of Problems

If you discover that you have trouble booting the computer after making and saving the changes with the BIOS setup program, restart the computer by holding the power button down until the computer shuts off (usually within 4 seconds); resetting by pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL; or clearing the CMOS.

The best advice is to only alter settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change settings in the Chipset section unless you are sure of the outcome. TYAN or your system manufacturer has carefully chosen the chipset defaults for best performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change to the Chipset setup options may cause the system to become unstable or unusable.

Setup Variations

Not all systems have the same BIOS setup layout or options. While the basic look and function of the BIOS setup remains more or less the same for most systems, the appearance of your Setup screen may differ from the charts shown in this section. Each system design and chipset combination requires a custom configuration. In addition, the final appearance of the Setup program depends on the system designer. Your system designer may decide that certain items should not be available for user configuration, and remove them from the BIOS setup program.
