3.9. Top Performance
ø "Top Performance" allows faster system start. However, the result may differ depending
on system specifications (includes hardware and OS). For example, certain hardware
may become unstable under Windows XP but work reliably under the Windows NT
operating system. Thus, select Disabled under "Top Performance" if system hardware is
affected.
3.10. Load Fail-Safe Defaults
ø Use this option to reset your BIOS settings to the system defaults. You should only use
this if you are encountering serious problems.
Please select <Y> and <Enter> to load Fail-Safe defaults. Once this is loaded, your
system may be slowed since this uses a minimal performance setting to allow stable
system running.
3.11. Load Optimized Defaults
ø Like the Fail-Safe mode above, this option loads the BIOS default settings, but runs the
system at optimal performance.
Please select <Y> and <Enter> to load optimized defaults.
3.12. Set User Password
ø Use this to set the password that is needed to either enter into the BIOS or to boot the
system. Entering in a blank field will disable the password.
Please input an 8 character long password and then select Enter. You will be required
to re-enter the password for confirmation. If you wish to remove the need for password
entry, leave the entry blank and then select Enter. BIOS will then display "PASSWORD
DISABLED". Once you have completed the password setting, you will need to go to
"Advanced BIOS Features" and select "Password Check" for setup of password check.
3.13. Save & Exit Setup
ø To save any changes you made to the BIOS you must choose this option. The
system will automatically exit setup and perform a system restart. Pushing <F10> will
have the same effect.
Push <Y> and <Enter> to save and exit setup. If you do not wish to save, select <N> or
<Esc> to return to the main menu.
n CPU Voltage Control
Allows user to set the CPU voltage. (default:Normal)
Please note that by overclocking your system through the increase of the CPU voltage,
system instability or damage to the CPU may occur.
Options: Normal (automatic setting of CPU voltage as CPU required)
+5%, +7.5%, +10% (CPU voltage range)
