Manual for KinetiZ 7L
The BIOS of the mainboard is contained inside the Flash ROM. Severe viruses such as CIH
virus are so dangerous that it may overwrite the BIOS of the mainboard. If the BIOS has
been damaged, the system will be unable to boot. We provide the following solution which
protects the system BIOS from being attacked by such viruses.
There are two choices which implements this function.
1. Set the jumper (JAV) as closed, the BIOS can not be overwritten.
2. Set the jumper (JAV) as opened, meanwhile set Flash Write Protect as Enabled in
Advanced BIOS Features Setup. In this way, the BIOS can not be overwritten, but the
DMI information can be updated.
