Intel 9EJL4 manual Overclockability, 3-8Load Fail-SafeDefaults, 3-9Load Optimized Defaults

Chapter 3

Overclockability:

This motherboard is designed to support overclocking ability. However, please make sure your components are able to tolerate such abnormal setting, while CPU clock speed is overclocked. Any attempt to operate beyond product specifications is not recommended. We are not

responsible for damages caused by inadequate operation or settings

beyond product specifications.

3-8 Load Fail-Safe Defaults

Load Fail-Safe Defaults loads the default BIOS values directly from the CMOS Setup Utility menu (Figure3-1). If user-defined BIOS settings are corrupted and therefore unusable, these defaults will be loaded automatically when you turn on the computer.

3-9 Load Optimized Defaults

Load Optimized Defaults loads the default system values directly from the CMOS Setup Utility menu (Figure3-1). If user-defined BIOS settings are corrupted and therefore unusable, these defaults will be loaded automatically when you turn on the computer.

3-10 Supervisor Password & User Password Setting

There are four different variables that control password settings. The first two are located under the Security Option function in BIOS Features Setup Menu (Figure 3-1). When the Security Option function is set to Setup, a password is required to enter BIOS and change BIOS settings. When the Security Option function is set to System, a password is required to enter both BIOS and the computer's operating system (for example Windows 98) found on the boot drive.

The third and fourth variables are user password and supervisor password selected in BIOS (Figure 3-1). The main purpose of separating user and supervisor is to allow only the supervisor to have control over the settings in BIOS. The user, on the other hand, is only allowed to access the computer's operating system and change the user password in BIOS.
