BIOS Setup Information
ROBO-8712E series is equipped with the AWARD BIOS stored in Flash ROM. These
BIOS has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system
configuration easily. This type of information is stored in CMOS RAM so that it is
retained during power-off periods. When system is turned on, ROBO-8712E series
communicates with peripheral devices and checks its hardware resources against the
configuration information stored in the CMOS memory. If any error is detected, or
the CMOS parameters need to be initially defined, the diagnostic program will
prompt the user to enter the SETUP program. Some errors are significant enough to
abort the start-up.
