Clear CMOS Jumper: JBAT1
There is a CMOS RAM onboard that has a power supply
from an external battery to keep the data of system
configuration. With the CMOS RAM, the system can
automatically boot OS every time it is turned on. If you
want to clear the system configuration, set the jumper to
clear data.
Important:
You can clear CMOS by shorting 2-3 pin while the system is off. Then return to 1-2 pin
position. Avoid clearing the CMOS while the system is on; it will damage the mainboard.
