Bios Setup - Abit IL9 Pro Installation Manual

2. BIOS Setup

This motherboard provides a programmable EEPROM so that you can
update the BIOS utility. The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is a
program that deals with the basic level of communication between
processor and peripherals. Use the BIOS Setup program only when
installing motherboard, reconfiguring system, or prompted to "Run
Setup".
After powering up the system, the BIOS message appears on the
screen, the memory count begins, and then the following message
appears on the screen:
PRESS DEL TO ENTER SETUP
If this message disappears before you respond, restart the system by
pressing <Ctrl> + <Alt> + <Del> keys, or by pressing the Reset
button on computer chassis. Only when these two methods fail should
you restart the system by powering it off and then back on.
After pressing <Del> key, the main menu screen appears.
