NOTICE
The BIOS does NOT automatically save values that you have modified. If you do not save your values
before you exit the BIOS Setup Utility, all your changes will be lost.
If after making and saving system changes with the BIOS Setup Utility, you discover that your computer
is no longer able to boot, the AMI BIOS supports an override, which will reset your system to the
Failsafe defaults. If that fails, it is possible to manually clear the present CMOS information through
the "Clear CMOS Header" on the motherboard (Refer to Jumper Settings for more information).
The best advice is to ONLY alter settings which you thoroughly understand. The default settings have
been carefully chosen by AMIBIOS to provide the maximum system performance and reliability.
Even a slight change to the chipset setup may cause potential and unpredictable failure to the system.
