In Case of Problems
If, after making and saving system changes with Setup, you discover that your computer
no longer is able to boot, the AwardBIOS™ supports an override to the CMOS settings
which resets your system to its defaults.
The best advice is to only alter settings which you thoroughly understand. To this end, we
strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the chipset defaults. These
defaults have been carefully chosen by both Award and your systems manufacturer to
provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small
change to the chipset setup has the potential for causing you to use the override.

enter the sub-menu.
Note that a brief description of each highlighted selection appears at the bottom of the
screen.
