CHAPTER [9]<br />

BIOS TWEAKING<br />

Introduction<br />

By modifying settings in your BIOS you can improve performance, reduce boot time, fix incompatibility problems & many other<br />

things. This guide will take you through the BIOS & how to update it, change setting to improve performance, etc. & how to<br />

overclock your system using BIOS settings too. Some of these settings are from various sources e.g. motherboard manuals and<br />

from my own experience but the majority of these settings are taken from an excellent website called 'Speed Demons'<br />

BIOS Passwords<br />

These are useful to know if someone has put a password in your Bios and you need to get into it to change some settings. However<br />

if you can boot into windows there are many tools/utilities you can use that will tell you the Bios password or reset it - some of<br />

these tools can be found on www.antionline.com and also www.esiea.fr/public_html/Christophe.GRENIER You can however also<br />

open up the computer and find the jumper to short the Bios, which will also let you in (look in the manual for the jumper)<br />
