Award BIOS Setup This chapter describes how to configure the BIOS for the system. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup...
Starting setup The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you first turn on the computer. The BIOS reads system configuration information in CMOS RAM and begins the process of checking out the system and configuring it through the power-on self test (POST). When these preliminaries are finished, the BIOS seeks an operating system on one of the data storage devices (hard drive, floppy drive, etc.).
