Award BIOS Setup

3.1 BIOS Setup

Award‘s ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration and settings. The modified data will be stored in a battery-backed CMOS RAM so that this data will be retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM remains unchanged unless there is a configuration change in the system, such as hard drive replacement or new equipment installment.

Starting Setup

The AwardBIOS™ is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating system.

While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways:

1.By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or

2.By pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears briefly at the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self-Test).

Press DEL to enter SETUP.

If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" button on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Delete> keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to...

PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, DEL TO ENTER SETUP
