System parameters can be modified by going into BIOS Setup menu, this menu allows you to configure the system parameters
and save the configuration into the 128 bytes CMOS area, (normally in the RTC chip or in the main chipset).
The Phoenix AwardBIOS™ that installed in the Flash ROM
of the motherboard is a custom version of an industry standard BIOS.
The BIOS provides critical low-level support for standard devices such as hard disk drives, serial and parallel ports.
Most BIOS setting of this model had been optimized by AOpen’s R&D engineering team. But, the default setting of BIOS still
can’t fine-tune the chipset controlling the entire system. Hence, the rest of this chapter is intended to guide you through the
process of configuring your system using setup procedures.
To enter to BIOS setup menu
, press <Del> when POST (Power-On Self Test) screen is shown on your monitor.
Note: Because the BIOS code is the most often
changed part of the motherboard design, the BIOS
information contained in this manual may be
different with actual BIOS that come with your
motherboard.
