BIOS Setup

ARK-3390 system has AwardBIOS 6.0 built-in, which includes a CMOS SETUP utility
that allows users to configure settings as required or to activate certain system fea-
tures.
The CMOS SETUP saves configuration settings in the CMOS RAM of the mother-
board. When the system power is turned off, the onboard battery supplies the neces-
sary power to the CMOS RAM so that settings are retained.
To access the CMOS SETUP screen, press the <Del> button during the power-on
BIOS POST (Power-On Self Test).
