PCM-3362 User Manual 18
AMIBIOS has been integrated into many motherboards for over a decade. With the
AMIBIOS Setup program, you can modify BIOS settings and control the various sys-
tem features. This chapter describes the basic navigation of the PCM-3362 BIOS
setup screens.

AMI’s BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic
system configuration. This information is stored in battery-backed CMOS so it retains
the Setup information when the power is turned off.
3.1 Entering Setup
Turn on the computer and check for the “patch” code. If there is a number assigned to
the patch code, it means that the BIOS supports your CPU. If there is no number
assigned to the patch code, please contact an Advantech application engineer to
obtain an up-to-date patch code file. This will ensure that your CPU’s system status is
valid. After ensuring that you have a number assigned to the patch code, press
<DEL> and you will immediately be allowed to enter Setup.
3.2 Main Setup
When you first enter the BIOS Setup Utility, you will encounter the Main setup screen.
You can always return to the Main setup screen by selecting the Main tab. There are
two Main Setup options. They are described in this section. The Main BIOS Setup
screen is shown below.
