Chapter 5 BIOS Setup
The BIOS Setup Utility record settings and information of your computer, such as date and time, the type of hardware installed, and various configuration settings. Your computer applies those information to initialize all the components when booting up and basic function of coordination between system components. If the Setup Utility configuration is incorrect, it may cause the system to malfunction. It can even stop you computer booting properly. If it happens, you can use the clear CMOS jumper to clear the CMOS memory which

has stored the configuration information; or you can hold down the Page Up key while rebooting your computer. Holding down the Page Up key also clears the setup information
5.1 Main menu
You can use cursor arrow keys to highlight anyone of options on the main menu page. Press Enter to select the highlighted option. Press the Escape key to leave the setup utility. Press the F9 key to go back to menu in BIOS. Some options on the main menu page lead to tables of items with installed value that you can use cursor arrow keys to highlight on item, and press Page Up and Page Down keys to cycle through alternative values of that item. The other options on the main menu page lead to dialog boxes that require your answer Yes or No by hitting the Y or N keys. If you have already changed the setup utility, press F10 to save those changes and exit the utility.
