The Award BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your

password protection as well as special support for detailed
fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.

ROM of the system stores the Setup utility. When you turn ON
the computer, the Award BIOS is immediately activated.
Pressing the <Del> key immediately allows you to enter the
