Date & Time Setup
Highlight the <Date> field and then press the [Page Up] /[Page Down] or [+]/[-] keys to set the current date. Follow
the month, day and year format.
Highlight the <Time> field and then press the [Page Up] /[Page Down] or [+]/[-] keys to set the current date. Follow
the hour, minute and second format.
The user can bypass the date and time prompts by creating an AUTOEXEC.BAT file. For information on how to
create this file, please refer to the MS-DOS manual.
Hard Disk Setup
The BIOS supports various types for user settings, The BIOS supports <Pri Master>, <Pri Slave>, <Sec Master>
and <Sec Slave> so the user can install up to two hard disks. For the master and slave jumpers, please refer to
the hard disk’s installation descriptions and the hard disk jumper settings in section three of this manual.
You can select <AUTO> under the <TYPE> and <MODE> fields. This will enable auto detection of your IDE drives
during boot-up. This will allow you to change your hard drives (with the power off) and then power on without
having to reconfigure your hard drive type. If you use older hard disk drives, which do not support this feature,
then you must configure the hard disk drive in the standard method by choosing the HDD type, which should be
noted directly on the HDD.
Floppy Setup
The <Standard CMOS Setup> option records the types of floppy disk drives installed in the system.
To enter the configuration value for a particular drive, highlight its corresponding field and then select the drive type
using the left-or right-arrow key.
Video
This option selects the type of adapter used for the primary system monitor that must match your video display
card and monitor. Although secondary monitors are supported, you do not have to select the type in Setup.
You have two ways to boot up the system:
1. When VGA as primary and monochrome as secondary, the selection of the video type is “ VGA Mode”.
2 When monochrome as primary and VGA as secondary, the selection of the video type is “Monochrome Mode”.
