Section 1 Running Amibios Setup - American Megatrends 43 Series User Manual

Section 1
Running AMIBIOS Setup
A record of the system configuration parameters (such as amount of memory, disk drives, video displays, and numeric coprocessors) is stored in CMOS RAM.
When the computer is turned off, a back-up battery provides power to CMOS RAM, which retains the system parameters.
Each time the system is powered-on, it is configured with these values, unless CMOS RAM has been corrupted. AMIBIOS Setup resides in the ROM BIOS and
is available each time the computer is turned on.
If CMOS RAM becomes corrupted, the system is configured with the default values stored in this ROM file. There are two sets of BIOS values stored in the
ROM file: the BIOS Setup default values and the Power-On default values.
