[. . . ] You can type up to eight alphanumeric characters. To confirm the password, type the password again and press the <Enter>. This password allows full access to the BIOS Setup menus. To clear the password, highlight this field and press <Enter>. The same dialog box as above will appear. Press <Enter> and the password will be set to [Disabled]. A Note about Passwords The BIOS Setup program allows you to specify passwords in the Main menu. The passwords control access to the BIOS during system startup. In other words, it makes no difference whether you enter a password using upper or lowercase letters. The BIOS Setup program allows you to specify two separate passwords: a Supervisor password and a User password. When disabled, anyone may access all BIOS Setup program functions. When enabled, the Supervisor password is required for entering the BIOS Setup program and having full access to all configuration fields. Forgot the Password?If you forgot the password, you can clear the password by erasing the CMOS Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM. The RAM data containing the password information is powered by the onboard button cell battery. To erase the RTC RAM: (1) Unplug your computer, (2) Short the solder points, (3) Turn ON your computer, (4) Hold down <Delete> during bootup and enter BIOS setup to re-enter user preferences. COM1 ® TUSL2 Short solder points to Clear CMOS TUSL2 Clear RTC RAM Halt On [All Errors] This field determines which types of errors will cause the system to halt. Configuration options: [All Errors] [No Error] [All but Keyboard] [All but Disk] [All but Disk/Keyboard] Installed Memory [XXX MB] This display-only field displays the amount of conventional memory detected by the system during bootup. You do not need to make changes to this field. BIOS SETUP 4. 4 Advanced Menu CPU Internal Frequency In JumperFreeTM Mode, this field allows you to select the internal frequency of your CPU. Select [Manual] if you want to make changes to the subsequent 2 fields. Note that selecting a frequency higher than the CPU manufacturer recommends may cause the system to hang or crash. BIOS SETUP Advanced Menu 60 CPU Frequency Multiple (When CPU Internal Frequency is set to [Manual]) This field sets the frequency multiple between the CPU's internal frequency and external frequency. In JumperFreeTM Mode, when CPU Internal Frequency is set to [Manual], this must be set in conjunction with FSB/ SDRAM Freq. [. . . ] Flash ROM (or EEPROM) can be reprogrammed with new programs (or BIOS). SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) High speed multi-threaded I/O interface defined by the X3T9. 2 committee of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) for connecting many peripheral devices. The standard started from 10MBytes/sec to 160MBytes/sec available today. SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) The SDRAM features a fully synchronous operation referenced to a positive edge clock whereby all operations are synchronized at a clock input which enables the coexistence of high performance and a simple user interface.
