Save & Exit Setup

Once you are finished making your selections, choose this option from the Exit menu to ensure the values you selected are saved to the CMOS RAM. The CMOS RAM is sustained by an onboard backup battery and stays on even when the PC is turned off. When you select this option, a confirmation window appears. Select [Yes] to save changes and exit.

Exit Without Saving

Select this option only if you do not want to save the changes that you made to the Setup program. If you made changes to fields other than system date, system time, and password, the BIOS asks for a confirmation before exiting.

Load Optimized Defaults

This option allows you to load the optimized values for each of the parameters on the Setup menus. When you select this option or if you press <F7>, a confirmation window appears. Select [Yes] to load optimized values. Select Save & Exit or make other changes before saving the values to the non-volatile RAM.
