Step 9. CPU Safe Mode (JP7)

If the user overclocks the system there is always the risk that the system will not boot up properly. In that case closing JP7 will force system to use the actual CPU multiplier to boot up. The boot-up sequence in that case will be as follows:

Ø-The system will start up with the lowest multiplier available.

Ø-The BIOS will now read the CPU-ID code and set the multiplier in accordance with it.

Ø-The system will boot up normally with the actual (non-overclock) CPU frequency.

Note: After properly booting up, set JP7 back to open again.

Step 10. CMOS Clear (JP5)

After you have turned off your computer, clear the CMOS memory by momentarily shorting pins 2-3 on jumper JP5, for a few seconds. Then restore JP5 to the initial 1-2 jumper setting in order to recover and retain the default settings.

Jumper JP5 can be easily identified by its white colored cap.
