Chapter 5 143 Clearing Password Check and BIOS Recovery This section provides you with the standard operating procedures of clearing password and BIOS recovery for the computer. There is one Hardware Open Gap on the mainboard for clearing password check, and one Hotkey for enabling BIOS Recovery. Clearing Password Check Hardware Open Gap Description is as follows: The CLRP2 jumper is located on the mainboard close to the DIMM module. Steps for Clearing BIOS Password Check If users set a BIOS Password (Supervisor Password and/or User Password) for security reasons, BIOS will ask for the password during system POST or when the system enters the BIOS Setup menu. If it is necessary to bypass the password check, users need to short the HW Gap to clear the password by using the following steps: 1.Power Off the system. Remove the AC, Battery and HDD from the machine. ItemDescription CLRP2 Clear CMOS Jumper
144 Chapter 5 2.Disconnect the RTC Battery cable and locate the CLRP2 jumper in the DIMM bay. 3.Use an electric conductivity tool to short the two HW Gap points. 4.Plug in AC, keep the HW Gap shorted, and press the Power Button to power on the system until BIOS POST finishes, then remove the tool from the HW Gap. 5.Restart the system. Press the F2 key to enter the BIOS Setup menu. 6.If there is no Password request, the BIOS Password has cleared. Otherwise, please follow the steps above and try again. NOTE: These steps are only for clearing the BIOS Password (Supervisor Password and User Password).
Chapter 5 145 BIOS Recovery by Crisis Disk BIOS Recovery Boot Block: BIOS Recovery Boot Block is a special block of BIOS. It is used to boot up the system with minimum BIOS initialization. Users can enable this feature to restore the BIOS firmware to a successful one once the previous BIOS flashing process failed. BIOS Recovery Hotkey: The system provides a function hotkey: Fn+Esc, for enable BIOS Recovery process when system is powered on during BIOS POST. To use this function, it is strongly recommended to have the AC adapter and Battery present. If this function is enabled, the system will force the BIOS to enter a special BIOS block, called Boot Block. Steps for BIOS Recovery from USB Storage: Before doing this, prepare the Crisis USB key. The Crisis USB key could be made by executing the Crisis Disk program in another system with Windows XP OS. Follow the steps below: 1.Save ROM file (file name: JAL90x64.fd) to the root directory of USB storage. 2.Plug USB storage into USB port. 3.Press Fn + ESC button then plug in AC. The Power button flashes once. 4.Press Power button to initiate system CRISIS mode. When CRISIS is complete, the system auto restarts with a workable BIOS. 5.Update the latest version BIOS for this machine by regular BIOS flashing process. Steps for BIOS Recovery by Crisis Disk: Before doing this, a Crisis Diskette should be prepared ready in hand. The Crisis Diskette could be made by executing the Crisis Disk program in another system with Windows XP OS. Follow the steps below: 1.Power Off failed system. 2.Attach a USB floppy drive to the failed system. 3.Copy xxxxx.wph to tools folder and rename it as BIOS.wph. 4.Execute wincris.exe to start the Crisis Disk Build. 5.Select Removable and click Start. 6.Select Quick Format Disk and click Start. A progress screen displays. 7.Click OK to complete the process. 8.Insert the Crisis Disk in to the USB floppy drive attached to the BIOS flash failed system. 9.In the power-off state, press and hold Fn+Esc then press the Power button. The system powers on and the Crisis BIOS Recovery process begins. BIOS Boot Block begins restoring the BIOS code from the Crisis floppy disk to BIOS ROM on the failed systems. When the Crisis flash process is finished, the system restarts with a workable BIOS. Update to the latest version BIOS for the system using the regular BIOS flashing process.
