BIOS Setup
Introduction
The purpose of this manual is to describe the settings in the AMI BIOS Setup
program on this motherboard. The Setup program allows users to modify the
basic system configuration and save these settings to CMOS RAM. The
power of CMOS RAM is supplied by a battery so that it retains the Setup
information when the power is turned off.
Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) determines what a computer can do
without accessing programs from a disk. This system controls most of the
input and output devices such as keyboard, mouse, serial ports and disk
drives. BIOS activates at the first stage of the booting process, loading and
executing the operating system. Some additional features, such as virus and
password protection or chipset fine-tuning options are also included in BIOS.
The rest of this manual will to guide you through the options and settings in
BIOS Setup.
Plug and Play Support
This AMI BIOS supports the Plug and Play Version 1.0A specification.
EPA Green PC Support
This AMI BIOS supports Version 1.03 of the EPA Green PC specification.
APM Support
This AMI BIOS supports Version 1.1&1.2 of the Advanced Power
Management (APM) specification. Power management features are
implemented via the System Management Interrupt (SMI). Sleep and
Suspend power management modes are supported. Power to the hard disk
drives and video monitors can also be managed by this AMI BIOS.
ACPI Support
AMI ACPI BIOS support Version 1.0/2.0 of Advanced Configuration and
Power interface specification (ACPI). It provides ASL code for power
management and device configuration capabilities as defined in the ACPI
specification, developed by Microsoft, Intel and Toshiba.

PCI Bus Support
This AMI BIOS also supports Version 2.3 of the Intel PCI (Peripheral
Component Interconnect) local bus specification.
DRAM Support
DDR3 SDRAM (Double Data Rate III Synchronous DRAM) is supported.
Supported CPUs
This AMI BIOS supports the AMD CPU.
Using Setup
When starting up the computer, press
<Del> during the Power-On Self-Test
(POST) to enter the BIOS setup utility.
In the BIOS setup utility, you will see
General Help description at the top
right corner, and this is providing a
brief description of the selected item.
Navigation Keys for that particular
menu are at the bottom right corner,
and you can use these keys to select
item and change the settings.
Notice
zThe default BIOS settings apply for most conditions to ensure optimum
performance of the motherboard. If the system becomes unstable after
changing any settings, please load the default settings to ensure system’s
compatibility and stability. Use Load Setup Default under the Exit Menu.
zFor better system performance, the BIOS firmware is being continuously
updated. The BIOS information described in this manual is for your
reference only. The actual BIOS information and settings on board may be
slightly different from this manual.
zThe content of this manual is subject to be changed without notice. We will
not be responsible for any mistakes found in this user’s manual and any
system damage that may be caused by wrong-settings.
