5.4 Configuring the CMOS Setup Utility

The motherboard Award BIOS includes the CMOS Setup Utility that cre-
ates a system configuration record that is stored in CMOS memory on the
board and is required by the system to operate properly. Most of the con-
figuration settings are either predefined by the BIOS Optimized Default
settings which are stored with the BIOS or are automatically detected and
configured without requiring User action. There are a few settings that
you may need to change depending on your system configuration.
This section gives brief profiles of the several sections of the CMOS
Setup Utility and indicates settings you might need to change and those
which you should not.

5.4.1 The CMOS Setup Utility User Interface

The CMOS Setup Utility user interface is simple and largely self-evident.
The utility can only be operated from the keyboard and all commands are
keyboard commands. The utility does not support mouse use. The com-
mands are straightforward and those available for the program section
you are in are listed at the bottom of the screen. The main screen has few
commands, other sections have more. General Help, which lists the com-
mands and their functions, is available at any time by pressing the F1 key.
