Introduction

With the AMI BIOS Setup program, users can modify the BIOS settings and control

the special system features. The Setup program comprises several menus with

options for adjusting or turning special features on or off. This chapter describes the

basic navigation of the AIMB-217 BIOS setup menu pages.

3.2

The AIMB-217 Series is equipped with built-in AMI BIOS and a CMOS Setup Utility

that allows users to configure specific settings or activate certain system features.

The CMOS Setup Utility saves the configuration in the CMOS RAM of the mother-

board. When the system power is turned off, the battery on the board supplies the

necessary power to preserve the CMOS RAM.

When the power is turned on, press the <Del> button during the BIOS power-on self-

test (POST) to access the CMOS Setup Utility screen.
