BIOS Setup
The ARK-1380 system has built-in AwardBIOS with a CMOS SETUP utility which
allows users to configure required settings or to activate certain system features.
The CMOS SETUP saves the configuration in the CMOS RAM of the motherboard.
When the power is turned off, the battery on the board supplies the necessary power
to the CMOS RAM.
When the power is turned on, press the <Del> key during the BIOS POST (Power-On
Self Test) which will take you to the CMOS SETUP screen.
