BIOS Instructions

Award’s ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program which allows 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 stay unchanged unless there is a configuration change in the system,
such as hard drive replacement or a device is added.

It is possible for the CMOS battery to fail, this will cause data loss in the CMOS
only. If this does happen you will need to reconfigure your BIOS settings.

To enter the Setup Program :

Power on the computer and press the <Del> key immediately, this will bring you
into the BIOS CMOS SETUP UTILITY.
