Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup

3.1 Introduction

Award's BIOS ROM has a built-in setup program that allows users to
modify the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored
in battery-backed memory (CMOS RAM) so that it retains the setup
information when the power is turned off.

3.2 Entering Setup

Turn on the computer and check for the "patch code". If there is a number
assigned to the patch code, it means that the BIOS supports your CPU.
If there is no number assigned to the patch code, please contact Advan-
tech's applications engineer to obtain an up-to-date patch code file. This
will ensure that your CPU's system status is valid.
After ensuring that you have a number assigned to the patch code, press
<Del> to allow you to enter the setup.
