cally boot OS every time it is turned on. If you want to clear the system configuration,
use the JBAT1 (Clear CMOS) Jumper to clear data. Follow the instructions below to

You can clear CMOS by shorting 2-3 pin while the system is off. Then
return to 1-2 pin position. Avoid clearing the CMOS while the system
is on; it will damage the mainboard.
