3.2 BIOS Setup
The AIMB-210 Series system has build-in AwardBIOS with a CMOS SETUP
utility which allows users to configure required settings or to activate certain sys-
tem features.
The CMOS SETUP saves the configuration in the CMOS RAM of the mother-
board. When the power is turned off, the battery on the board supplies the nec-
essary power to the CMOS RAM.
When the power is turned on, press the <Del> button during the BIOS POST
(Power-On Self Test) will take you to the CMOS SETUP screen.
