BIOS Setup

Chapter 3. BIOS Setup

BIOS Setup

This chapter provides information on the BIOS Setup program and

allows you to configure the system for optimum use. You may need

to run the Setup program when:

² An error message appears on the screen during the system boot-

ing up, and requests you to run SETUP.

² You want to change the default settings for customized features.

MSI Reminds You...

1. The items under each BIOS category described in this chapter

are under continuous update for better system performance.

Therefore, the description may be slightly different from the lat-

est BIOS and should be held for reference only.

2. Upon boot-up, the 1st line appearing after the memory count is

the BIOS version. It is usually in the format:

W9617VMS V1.0 150305 where:

1st digit refers to BIOS maker as A = AMI, W = AWARD,

and P = PHOENIX.

2nd - 5th digit refers to the model number.

6th digit refers to the chipset as I = Intel, N = nVidia, and V = VIA.

7th - 8th digit refers to the customer as MS = all standard

customers.

V1.0 refers to the BIOS version.

150305 refers to the date this BIOS was released.
