2-5 Jumper HARDWARE INSTALLATION Clear CMOS Header: CLR_CMOS The motherboard uses CMOS RAM to store the basic hardware information (such as BIOS data, date, time information, hardware password...etc.). Clear CMOS data is the fast way to go back to factory default when the BIOS settings were mistakenly modified. The steps to clear CMOS data are : 1. Turn off the computer, unplug the power cord from the power outlet. 2. Put a metal object(such as a screwdriver) onto pins 1-2 to short them. This will clear CMOS data. 3. After a few second, remove the metal object to leave the Pins 1-2 open. 4. Plug in the power cord to your computer and turn it on. 5. Go to BIOS Setup to configure new system as described in next chapter. 1 Clear 2 3 Normal 1 (Default) 2 3 CLR_CMOS ■ Disconnect the power cable before adjusting the jumper settings. ■ Do not clear the CMOS while the system is turned on.

Clear CMOS Header: CLR_CMOS
The motherboard uses CMOS RAM to store the basic hardware information (such as BIOS data,
date, time information, hardware password...etc.). Clear CMOS data is the fast way to go back to
factory default when the BIOS settings were mistakenly modified.
The steps to clear CMOS data are :
1. Turn off the computer, unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
2. Put a metal object(such as a screwdriver) onto pins 1-2 to short them. This will clear CMOS
data.
3. After a few second, remove the metal object to leave the Pins 1-2 open.
4. Plug in the power cord to your computer and turn it on.
5. Go to BIOS Setup to configure new system as described in next chapter.
