BIOS CONFIGURATION
Award's BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify
the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-
backed CMOS SRAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power
is turned off.
4.1. ENTERING SETUP
Power ON the computer and press <Del> immediately will allow you to enter
Setup. If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to
enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or

simultaneously press <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Del> keys.
