Figure 5-1:Setup program initial screen

Award's BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-backed CMOS so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off.

5.1.1 Entering Setup

Turn on the computer and check for the "patch code". If there is a number assigned to the patch code, it means that the BIOS support your CPU. If there is no number assigned to the patch code, please contact Advantech's application engineer to obtain an up-to-date patch code file. This will ensure that your CPU's system status is valid. After ensuring that you have a number assigned to the patch code, press <DEL> and you will immediately be allowed to enter Setup.

5.1.2 Standard CMOS Setup

Choose the "STANDARD CMOS SETUP" option from the INITIAL SETUP SCREEN Menu, and the screen below will be displayed. This standard setup menu allows users to configure system components such as date, time, hard disk drive, floppy drive, display, and memory.
