3 Quick BIOS Setup

This mainboard does not use any hardware jumpers to set the CPU frequency. Instead, CPU settings are software configurable with the BIOS [CHIPSET FEATURES SETUP].

After the hardware installation is complete, turn the power switch on, then press the <DEL> key during the system diagnostic checks to enter the Award BIOS Setup program. The CMOS SETUP UTILITY will display on screen. Then, follow these steps to configure the CPU settings.

Step 1. Select [LOAD SETUP DEFAULT]

Select the “LOAD SETUP DEFAULT”menu and type “Y”at the prompt to load the BIOS optimal setup.

Step 2. Select [STANDARD CMOS SETUP]

Set [Date/Time] and [Floppy drive type], then set [Hard Disk Type] to “Auto”.

Step 3. Select [CHIPSET FEATURES SETUP]

Move the cursor to the [CPU Speed] field to set the CPU frequency.

Available [CPU Speed] settings on your SY-6KE Mainboard are detailed in the following table. If you set this field to [Manual], you are then required to fill in the next two consecutive fields: (1) the [CPU Host Clock], and (2) the [CPU Ratio].
