Chapter 2: BIOS information

Use the BIOS Setup program to update the BIOS or configure its parameters. The BIOS 

screens include navigation keys and brief online help to guide you in using the BIOS Setup 

program.

To enter BIOS Setup at startup:

•  Press <Delete> during the Power-On Self Test (POST). If you do not press <Delete>, 

POST continues with its routines.

To enter BIOS Setup after POST:

•  Press <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Del> simultaneously. 
•  Press the reset button on the system chassis. 
•  Press the power button to turn the system off then back on. Do this option only if you 

failed to enter BIOS Setup using the first two options.

Using the power button, reset button, or the <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Del> keys to force 

reset from a running operating system can cause damage to your data or system. We 

recommend to always shut down the system properly from the operating system.

•  The default BIOS settings for this motherboard apply for most conditions to ensure 

optimum performance. If the system becomes unstable after changing any BIOS 

settings, load the default settings to ensure system compatibility and stability. Select the 

Load Setups Default item under the Exit Menu. See section 2.9 Exit menu.

•  The BIOS setup screens shown in this section are for reference purposes only, and may 

not exactly match what you see on your screen. 

•  Visit the ASUS website at www.asus.com to download the latest BIOS file for this 

motherboard.

When you enter the BIOS Setup program, the Main menu screen appears, giving you an 

overview of the basic system information. You can also set the system time and date and 

BIOS language in this menu.

Refer to BIOS menu screen for information on the menu screen items and how to navigate 

through them.
