AMI BIOS Setup
Overview
This chapter provides a description of the AMI BIOS. The BIOS setup menus and
available selections may vary from those of your product. For specific information on
the BIOS for your product, please contact ViewSonic.
NOTE: The BIOS menus and selections for your product may vary from
those in this chapter. For the BIOS manual specific to your product, please
contact ViewSonic
AMI's ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program, which allows the user to modify
the basic system configuration and hardware parameters. The modified data will be
stored in a battery-backed CMOS, so that data will be retained even when the power
is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM will not need to be
changed unless there is a configuration change in the system, such as a hard drive
replacement or when a device is added.
It is possible for the CMOS battery to fail, which will cause data loss in the CMOS
only. If this happens you will need to reconfigure your BIOS settings.

may have a faulty power button
1.5. If the power LED stays lit and the system will not power down after holding
the power button in for more than 4 seconds you may have a faulty power

Check that the display is in a Power On status
2.2. Check that you have connected the VOT125 to the display with the correct
connector
