UEFI BIOS Setup
Introduction
The purpose of this manual is to describe the settings in the AMI UEFI BIOS Setup program on this motherboard. The Setup program allows users to modify the bas ic system configuration and save these settings to NVRAM. UEFI BIOS determines what a computer can do without access ing programs from a disk. This system controls most of the input and output devices such as keyboard, mouse, s erial ports and d is k dr ives. BIOS ac tivates at t he first stage of the boo ting process, loading and executing the op erating system. Some additional features, such as virus and password protectio n or chipset fine-tuning options are also includ ed in UEFI BIOS. The rest o f this manual will to guide you thro ugh the options and settings in UEFI BIOS Setup.

Using Setup
When starting up the computer, press <Del> during the Power-On Self-T est (POST) to enter t he UEFI BIOS setup utilit y. In the UEFI BIOS s etup utility, you will see General Help description at the top right corner, and this is providing a brief desc ription of the selected item. Navigation Keys for that particular menu are at the bottom right corner, and you can use these keys to select item and change the settings.
Notice
The default UEFI BIOS settings app ly fo r most conditions to ensure optimum
perfo rmance o f t he mothe rboard. If the system b eco mes unst able after changing any settings, please load the default settings to ensure system’s compatibilit y and stability. Use Lo ad Setup Default under the Exit Menu.
For better system performance, the UEFI BIOS firmware is being
continuously updated. The UEFI BIOS info rmation described in this manual is for your reference only. The actual UEFI BIOS information and settings on board may be slightly different from this manual.
The content o f this manual is subject to be changed without notice. W e will
not be respo nsible for any mist akes found in this user’s manual and an y system damage that may b e caused by wrong-settings.
