Chapter 5 BIOS Setup  
The BIOS setup Utility record settings and information of your computer,  
such as date and time, the type of hardware installed, and various configuration  
settings. Your computer applies those information to initialize all the  
components when booting up and basic function of coordination between system  
components.  
If the Setup Utility configuration is incorrect, it may cause the system to  
malfunction. It can even stop you computer booting properly. If it happens, you  
can use the clear CMOS jumper to clear the CMOS memory which has stored  
the configuration information; or you can hold down the Page  
Up Key while rebooting your computer. Holding down the Page Up key also  
clears the setup information.
