Chapter 5: Running Setup
5-21
When you select Supervisor or User, AMIBIOS prompts for a password.
You must set the Supervisor password before you can set the User
password. Enter a 1-6 character password. The password does not
appear on the screen when typed. Retype the new password as
prompted and press <Enter>. Make sure you write it down. If you forget
it, you must drain CMOS RAM and reconfigure.
5-3 Utility Setup
5-3-1 Anti-Virus
When this icon is selected, AMIBIOS issues a warning when any program
(or virus) issues a disk format command or attempts to write to the boot
sector of the hard disk drive. The settings are
Enabled
or
Disabled
.
5-3-2 Language
Note: The Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings for this option
are both
English.
5-4 Default Setting
Every option in WinBIOS Setup contains two default settings: a Fail-Safe
default, and an Optimal default.
5-4-1 Optimal Default
The Optimal default settings provide optimum performance settings for all
devices and system features.
5-4-2 Fail-Safe Default
The Fail-Safe default settings consist of the safest set of parameters. Use
them if the system is behaving erratically. They should always work but do
not provide optimal system performance characteristics.
