BIOS Configuration Jumper Block

CAUTION
Do not move the jumper with the power on. Always turn off the power and unplug the
power cord from the computer before changing a jumper setting. Otherwise, the
board could be damaged.
Figure 14 shows the location of the BIOS configuration jumper block. The jumper
determines the BIOS Setup program's mode. Table 27 lists the jumper settings for the
three modes: normal, configure, and recovery. When the jumper is set to configure
mode and the computer is powered-up, the BIOS compares the processor version and
the microcode version in the BIOS and reports if the two match.
