3.2 Jumpers

1. Clear RTC RAM (3-pin CLRTC1)

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onboardbuttoncellbatterypowerstheRAMdatain

CMOS,whichincludesystemsetupinformationsuchassystempasswords.

To erase the RTC RAM:

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

2. Movethejumpercapfrompins1–2(default)topins2–3.Keepthecaponpins

 2–3forabout5–10seconds,thenmovethecapbacktopins1–2.

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

4. Holddownthe<Del>keyduringthebootprocessandenterBIOSsetuptore-

enter data.

ExceptwhenclearingtheRTCRAM,neverremovethecaponCLRTCjumperdefault

position.Removingthecapwillcausesystembootfailure!

Ifthestepsabovedonothelp,removetheonboardbatteryandmovethejumperagainto

clear the CMOS RTC RAM data. After the CMOS clearance, reinstall the battery.
