His motherboard has two B±OS chips, a primary B±OS (B±OS_A) and a backup B±OS (B±OS_
B), which enhances the safety and stability of your system. Normally, the system will work
on the primary B±OS. ´owever, if the primary B±OS is corrupted or damaged, just µip the
B±OS Selection Switch to “B”, then the backup B±OS will take over on the next system boot.
ATer that, use “Secure Backup UE³±” in the UE³± Setup Utility to duplicate a working copy
of the B±OS Iles to the primary B±OS to ensure normal system operation. ³or safety issues,
users are not able to update the backup B±OS manually. Users may refer to the B±OS LEDs
