 1. AR-B1570 BIOS the factory-default setting is used to the <LOAD BIOS DEFAULTS> Acrosser 

recommends using the BIOS default setting, unless you are very familiar with the setting function, or 
you can contact the technical support engineer. 

2. If the BIOS settings are lost, the CMOS will detect the <LOAD SETUP DEFAULTS> to boot the 

operation system, this option will reduce the performance of the system.  Acrosser recommends 
choosing the <LOAD BIOS DEFAULTS> in the main menu. This option gives best-case values that 
should optimize system performance. 

3. The BIOS settings are described in detail in this section.
