Clear CMOS - supported cpu

Page 15 highlights

The jumper caps are not provided by ASRock. Please understand that ASRock does not guarantee and support the adjustment of multiplier. These jumpers setting may not apply to all multiplier-locked or even some unlocked AMD CPU. Frequencies other than the recommended CPU bus frequencies may cause the instability of the system or damage the CPU. CLRCMOS1 (see p.7 item 13) Clear CMOS CLRCMOS2 solder points (see p.7 item 18) 2-pin jumper Note: CLRCMOS1 and CLRCMOS2 allow you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes system setup information such as system password, date, time, and system setup parameters. There are 2 ways for you to clear and reset the system parameters to the default setup. Please turn off the computer and unplug the power cord, then you may either short the solder points on CLRCMOS1 by using metal material, e.g., a paper clip for 3 seconds; or you may use a jumper cap to short the pin on CLRCMOS2 for 3 seconds. Please remember to remove the paper clip or the jumper cap after clearing the CMOS. 15

Note:
CLRCMOS1 and CLRCMOS2 allow you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in
CMOS includes system setup information such as system password, date,
time, and system setup parameters. There are 2 ways for you to clear and
reset the system parameters to the default setup. Please turn off the com-
puter and unplug the power cord, then you may either short the solder points
on CLRCMOS1 by using metal material, e.g., a paper clip for 3 seconds; or
you may use a jumper cap to short the pin on CLRCMOS2 for 3 seconds.
Please remember to remove the paper clip or the jumper cap after clearing
the CMOS.
