Federal Communications Commission Statement
This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
wThis device may not cause harmful interference
wThis device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
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 in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy. If this equipment is not installed and
used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, it 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:
wReorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
wIncrease the separation between the equipment and receiver.
wConnect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
wConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The use of shielded cables for connection of the monitor to the graphics card is required to
assure compliance with FCC regulations. Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate
this equipment.
Canadian Department of Communications Statement
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for audio noise emissions from
digital apparatusses set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian
Department of Communications.

Standard CMOS Setup allows you to record some basic system hardware con-
figuration and set the system clock and error handling. You only need to modify
the configuration values of this option when you change your system hardware
configuration or the configuration stored in the CMOS memory gets lost or
damaged.
Run the Standard CMOS Setup as follows:
1. Choose STANDARD CMOS SETUP from the Main Menu and a screen
with a list of options will appear.
2. Use one of the arrow keys to move between options and modify the
