Chapter 3 BIOS Setup
BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) records hardware parameters of the system in the CMOS on the motherboard. Its major functions include conducting the Power-On Self-Test (POST) during system startup, saving system parameters and loading operating system, etc. BIOS includes a BIOS Setup program that allows the user to modiy basic system conguration settings or to activate certain system eatures. When the power is turned off, the battery on the motherboard supplies the necessary power to the CMOS to keep the conguration values in the CMOS. To access the BIOS Setup program, press the <Delete> key during the POST when the power is turned on. To upgrade the BIOS, use either the GIGABYTE Q-Flash or Q-Flash Plus utility.
· Q-Flash allows the user to quickly and easily upgrade or back up BIOS without entering the operating system. · Q-Flash Plus allows you to update the BIOS when your system is off (S5 shutdown state). Save the latest
BIOS on a USB thumb drive and plug it into the dedicated port, and then you can now fash the BIOS automatically by simply pressing the Q-Flash Plus button. For instructions on using the Q-Flash and Q-Flash Plus utilities, please navigate to the "Unique Features" page of GIGABYTE's website and search for "BIOS Update Utilities."
· Because BIOS fashing is potentially risky, i you do not encounter problems using the current version o BIOS, it is recommended that you not fash the BIOS. To fash the BIOS, do it with caution. Inadequate BIOS fashing may result in system malunction.
· It is recommended that you not alter the default settings (unless you need to) to prevent system instability or other unexpected results. Inadequately altering the settings may result in system's failure to boot. If this occurs, try to clear the CMOS values and reset the board to default values.
· Refer to the introductions of the battery/clear CMOS jumper in Chapter 2 or navigate to the "BIOS Setup" page o GIGABYTE's website and search or "Load Optimized Deaults" or how to clear the CMOS values.
