Chapter 3: BIOS Setup Utility

Load Optimized DefaultsLoad Optimized Defaults

Load Optimized Defaults

This option opens a dialog box that lets you install optimized defaults for all

appropriate items in the Setup Utility. Press <Y> and then <Enter> to install the

defaults. Press <N> and then <Enter> to not install the defaults. The optimized

defaults place demands on the system that may be greater than the performance

level of the components, such as the CPU and the memory. You can cause fatal

errors or instability if you install the optimized defaults when your hardware does

not support them. If you only want to install setup defaults for a specific option,

select and display that option, and then press <F7>.

Load Fail-Safe DefaultsLoad Fail-Safe Defaults

Load Fail-Safe Defaults

This option opens a dialog box that lets you install fail-safe defaults for all appro-

priate items in the Setup Utility:

Press <Y> and then <Enter> to install the defaults. Press <N> and then <Enter> to

not install the defaults. The fail-safe defaults place no great demands on the system

and are generally stable. If your system is not functioning correctly, try installing

the fail-safe defaults as a first step in getting your system working properly again.

If you only want to install fail-safe defaults for a specific option, select and display

that option, and then press <F6>.

Users please remain the factory BIOS default setting of “Load

Optimized Default” when install Operation System onto you system.

When this function is selected, the following message appears at the center of the

screen to assist you in creating a password.

ENTER PASSWORD

Type the password, up to eight characters, and press <Enter>. The password

typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory. You

will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>.

You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection.

To disable password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter

password. A message will confirm the password being disabled. Once the

password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter BIOS Setup freely.
