Load Optimized Defaults Option

This option opens a dialog box that lets you install optimized defaults
for all appropriate items in the whole Setup Utility. Press the <Y>
key and then <Enter> to install the defaults. Press the <N> key and
then <Enter> to not install the defaults. The optimized defaults 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 in-
stall setup defaults for a specific option, select and display that
option, and then press the <F7> key.

Set Supervisor/User Password

The Supervisor/User Password utility sets the password. The main-
board is shipped with the password disabled. If you want to change
the password, you must first enter the current password, then at the
prompt enter your new password. The password is case sensitive.
You can use up to eight alphanumeric characters. Press <Enter> after
entering the password. At the next prompt, confirm the new pass-
word by retyping it and pressing <Enter> again.
To disable the password, press <Enter> instead of entering a new
password when the Enter Password dialog box appears. A message
appears confirming that the password has been disabled.
If you have set supervisor and user passwords, only the supervisor
password allows you to enter the BIOS Setup Program.
Note: If you forget your password, the only way to solve this
problem is to discharge the CMOS memory by turning power
off and placing a shunt on jumper JP12 to short pin 2 and pin
3 for five seconds, then putting the shunt back to pin 1 and pin
2 of JP12.
