overclocked, the BIOS will automatically adjust the

Load Fail-Safe Defaults
If you select this item and press Enter a dialog box appears. If you
press Y, and then Enter, the Setup Utility loads a set of fail-safe
default values. These defaults place no great demands on the
system and are generally stable. If your system is not functioning
correctly, try installing the fail-safe defaults as a first step in
getting your system working properly again. If you only want to
install fail-safe defaults for a specific option, select and display that
option, and then press <F6>.

Load Optimized Defaults

If you select this item and press Enter, a dialog box appears. If you
press Y, and then Enter, the Setup Utility loads a set of optimized
default values. These default values place demands on the system
that may be greater than the performance level of the components,
such as the CPU and the memory. You can cause fatal errors or
instability if you install the optimized defaults when your hardware
does not support them. If you only want to install setup defaults for
a specific option, select and display that option, and then press
<F7>.
Set Supervisor and User Password

menu and press <Enter>.
