Main CMOS Setup

When you run Setup, the CMOS SETUP UTILITY main program screen will appear

with the following options:

A section at the bottom of the above screen displays the control keys for this screen.

Take note of these keys and their respective uses. Another section just below the

control keys section displays information on the currently highlighted item in the

list.

The "Load BIOS Defaults" option loads the minimized settings for troubleshooting.

"Load Setup Defaults" on the other hand, is for loading optimized defaults for

regular use. Choosing defaults at this level will modify all applicable settings.

The "Standard CMOS Setup" option allows you to record some basic system

hardware configuration and set the system clock and error handling. If the

mainboard is already installed in a working system, you will not need to select this

option anymore. However, if the configuration stored in the CMOS memory on the

mainboard gets lost or damaged, or if you change the system hardware

configuration, you will need to re-specify the configuration values. The

configuration values usually get lost or corrupted when the power of the onboard

CMOS battery weakens.
