Caution
To avoid damage to the system, use the correct AC input voltage range.....
To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the power cord before removing the
system chassis cover for installation or servicing. After installation or servicing,
cover the system chassis before plugging the power cord.
Battery: 1. Danger of explosion if battery incorrectly replaced. 2. Replace only
with the same or equivalent type recommend by the manufacturer. 3. Dispose of
used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s instructions.
Notice
The system board and accessories you receive in the package may not come
similar to the information stated in this manual. This may differ in accordance to
the sales region or models in which it was sold. For more information about the
standard package in your region, please contact your dealer or sales
representative.
FCC and DOC Statement on Class B
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accord-
ance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician for help.
Notice:
1. The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
2. Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply with the emission
limits.

2.2 CMOS Reloaded
CMOS Reloaded allows you to save different configurations and
when needed, allows you to conveniently restore one of these previ-
ously saved configurations. CMOS Reloaded is especially helpful to
overclockers who often go through the tiresome trial and error
process of repeatedly changing the BIOS settings to come up with
the most ideal overclocked setting. By being able to save and load
the settings, it eliminates the tedious job of remembering several
settings and/or repeatedly resetting settings during the trial process.
The settings are stored in the SEEPROM. SEEPROM is divided into 5
banks - the backup bank and the 4 user defined banks.

20
English

English
Auto Save Bootable Setting
This field is used to automatically save the last bootable setting from
CMOS to an area in the SEEPROM referred to as the backup bank.
To use this function:
1. Set this field to Enabled.
2. Select “Save & Exit Setup” in the main menu then press <Enter>.
3. Type <Y> then press <Enter>.
If the changes to the setting allowed the system to boot, the setting
will be stored in the SEEPROM. In other words, if the system did not
boot up, the setting will not be stored. You may then follow the
steps in the next section to load the last bootable setting.
Load Last Bootable Setting
If, during the trial and error process, the setting resulted to the
system’s instability or worse yet, not being able to boot up the
system, please follow the steps below to use the Load function.
Note:
You can use the Load function only if you have set the “Auto
Save Bootable Setting” to Enabled.
1. If the system did not boot up properly but you were able to
enter the BIOS utility:
a. Select “CMOS Reloaded” in the main menu then press
<Enter>.
b. Move the cursor to “Load Last Bootable Setting” then press
“Load”.
c. Press <Y> to load the last bootable setting that was stored
in the backup bank.
2. If you cannot enter the BIOS utility:
a. Use JP3 to clear the CMOS. Refer to chapter 1 for more
information about clearing CMOS.
b. Enter the BIOS utility then perform steps 1a to 1c.
Saving, Loading and Naming BIOS Settings
For overclockers who require different sets of settings for various
system environments or operating systems, CMOS Reloaded allows
you to save, load and name up to four sets of BIOS settings - in
