•Select Auto-Detect Hard Disks to have AMIBIOS automatically detect the type and parameters of each hard drive if you have IDE drive(s). This option is described later in this chapter.

•Select Change User Password to establish or change the password for the user. This function is described later in this chapter.

•Select Change Supervisor Password to establish or change the password for the supervisor. This function is described later in this chapter.

•Select Auto Configuration with Optimal Settings to load the Optimal default settings. These settings are best-case values which should provide the best performance characteristics. This function is described later in this chapter.

•Select Auto Configuration with Fail Safe Settings to load the Fail Safe default settings. These settings are more likely to configure a workable computer, but they may not provide optimal performance. This function is described later in this chapter.

•Select Save Settings and Exit to store your changes in the CMOS. The CMOS checksum is calculated and written to the CMOS. Control is then passed back to AMIBIOS and the booting process continues, using the new CMOS values. This function is described later in this chapter.

•Select Exit Without Saving to pass control back to the AMIBIOS without writing any changes to the CMOS. AMIBIOS continues with the booting process. This function is described later in this chapter.
