7.1 BIOS Introduction
Award BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your computer system’s ROM
supports Intel processors. The BIOS provides critical low -level support for a standard device such as disk drives, serial ports and parallel ports. It also adds virus and password protection as well as special s upport for detailed fine -tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.
7.2 BIOS Setup
The Award BIOS provides a Setup utili ty program for specifying the system configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the syste m stores the Setup utility. As you turn on the computer, the Award BIOS is immediately activated. Pressing the <Del> key immediately allows you to enter the Setup ut ility. If you are a little bit late pressing the <Del> key, POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its test routines, thus preventing you from invoking the Setup. If you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing the ”Reset” button or simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. You can also restart by turning the system Off and back On again. The following message will appear on the screen:
