operation will permanently reset old BIOS settings to factory defaults.
Procedures of CMOS clear:
a. Turn off the system and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
b. To clear the CMOS settings, use the jumper cap to close pin2 2 and 3 for about 3
seconds then reinstall the jumper clip back to pins 1 and 2.
c. Power on the system again.
d. When entering the POST screen, press the <F1> of <DEL> key to enter CMOS
Setup Utility to load optimal defaults.
e. After the above operations, save changes and exit BIOS Setup.

Pin1-3: HDD LED, They are used to connect hard disk activity LED. The LED blinks
when the hard disk is reading or writing data.
Pin2-4: POWER LED. They are used to connect power LED. When the system is
powered on or under S0/S1 state, the LED is normally on; when the
system is under S4/S5 state, the LED is off.
Pin5-6: POWER on/off Button. They are used to connect power switch button.
The two pins are disconnected under normal condition. You may short
them temporarily to realize system startup & shutdown or awaken the
system from sleep state.
Pin7-8: RESET Button. They are used to connect reset button. The two pins are
disconnected under normal condition. You may short them temporarily
to realize system reset.
Note:
When connecting LEDs and buzzer, pay special attention to the signal polarity. Make
sure that the connector pins have a one-to-one correspondence with chassis wiring,
or it may cause boot up failure.
6. USB3: (2.0mm Pitch 2x5 Pin Header), Front USB connector, it provides two USB
ports via a dedicated USB cable, speed up to 480Mb/s.
Note:
