• Be sure to connect fan cables to the fan headers to prevent your CPU and system from overheating. Overheat-
ing may result in damage to the CPU or the system may hang.

UsethisjumpertocleartheCMOSvalues(e.g.dateinformationandBIOScongurations)andresetthe
CMOS values to factory defaults. To clear the CMOS values, use a metal object like a screwdriver to touch
the two pins for a few seconds.
• Always turn off your computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before clearing the CMOS values.
• Aftersystemrestart,gotoBIOSSetuptoloadfactorydefaults(selectLoadOptimizedDefaults)ormanually
conguretheBIOSsettings(refertoChapter2,"BIOSSetup,"forBIOScongurations).
