Chapter 3 Introducing BIOS The BIOS is a program located on a Flash Memory on the motherboard. This program is a bridge between motherboard and operating system. When you start the computer, the BIOS program will gain control. The BIOS first operates an auto-diagnostic test called POST (power on self test) for all the necessary hardware, it detects the entire hardware device and configures the parameters of the hardware synchronization.
The Main Menu Once you enter Award ® BIOS CMOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu (Figure 3-1) will appear on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from fourteen setup functions and two exit choices. Use arrow keys to select among the items and press <Enter> to accept or enter the sub-menu.
The selection is set for activating the active CPU Thermal Protection by flexible CPU loading adjustment in the arrange of temperature you define. Load Fail-Safe Defaults This menu uses a minimal performance setting, but the system would run in a stable way. Load Optimized Defaults Use this menu to load the BIOS default values these are setting for optimal performances system operations for performance use.
IDE Channel 0 Master / Channel 0 Slave SATA Channel 1, 2, 3, 4 Press PgUp/<+> or PgDn/<–> to select Manual, None, Auto type. Note that the specifications of your drive must match with the drive table. The hard disk will not work properly if you enter improper information for this category.

The selection Allow you to choose the VIRUS Warning feature for IDE Hard Disk boot sector protection. If this function is enabled and someone attempt to write data into this area, BIOS will show a warning message on screen and alarm beep. Disabled (default) No warning message to appear when anything attempts to access the boot sector or hard disk partition table.
The system will not boot and access to Setup will be denied if the System correct password is not entered at the prompt. Setup (default) The system will boot, but access to Setup will be denied if the correct password is not entered prompt. HDD S.M.A.R.T Capability This option allow you to enable the HDD S.M.A.R.T Capability (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology).
