3.1 BIOS Setup Award‘s ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration and settings. The modified data will be stored in a battery-backed CMOS RAM so that this data will be retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM remains unchanged unless there is a configuration change in the system, such as hard drive replacement or new equipment installment.

Introduction Most systems need to be self-reliant. It's not usually possible to wait for someone to reboot them if there are some component wrong. Some system designs, such as space probes, are simply not accessible to human operators. If the system ever hangs, such systems are permanently disabled. In other cases, the speed with which a human operator might reset the system would be too slow to meet the uptime requirements of the product.
