In Case of Problems
If you discover that you have trouble booting the computer after making and saving changes with the BIOS setup program, you can restart the computer by either:
Holding the power button down until the computer shuts off
The best advice is to alter only settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change set- tings in the Chipset screen unless you absolutely sure that you need to. The Chipset defaults were care- fully chosen by Tyan or your system manufacturer for the best performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change to the Chipset setup may cause the system to become unstable.
Setup Variations
Not all systems have the same setup program. While the basic look and function of the setup program remains more or less the same for all systems, the appearance of your Setup screen may differ from the screens shown here. Each system design and chipset combination require custom configurations. In addition, the final appearance of the setup program depends on your system designer. Your system designer can decide that certain items should not be available for user configuration, and remove them from the BIOS setup program.
