5. Jumpers

2. Clear Password (3-pin CLPWD)

This jumper allows you to clear the password in CMOS. To erase the Password

move the jumper cap from pins 2-3 (Default) to pins 1-2 (Clear Password). Keep

the cap on pins 1-2 for about 5~10 seconds, then move the cap back to pins 2-3.

Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer. Hold down the <Del> key during

the boot process and enter BIOS setup to re-enter data.

1. Clear RTC (3-pin CLRTC)

This jumper allows you to clear the Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM in CMOS. You

can clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and system setup parameters by

erasing the CMOS RTC RAM data. The RAM data in CMOS, that include system

setup information, is powered by the onboard button cell battery.

To erase the RTC RAM:

1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.

2. Move the jumper cap from pins 2-3 (Default) to pins 1-2 (Clear CMOS).

Keep the cap on pins 1-2 for about 5~10 seconds, then move the cap back

to pins 2-3.

3. Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.

4. Hold down the <F1> key during the boot process and enter BIOS setup to

re-enter data.

Except when clearing the RTC RAM, never remove the jumper caps on default

position. Removing the cap will cause system boot failure!
