Online Manual When you read this online manual and start to assemble your computer system, you may find some of functions are "Optional", and some are "Upgrade Optional". This is because all of AOpen motherboards include many amazing and powerful features; however, some of these are not frequently used on daily operation. Therefore, we define some key features as optional to meet different requirements. Functions that can be upgraded by users are defined as "Upgrade Optional". The other optional functions which may have been built on the motherboards and which you cannot upgrade by yourself, we call them "Optional". If needed, you can contact your local distributors or resellers to purchase "Upgrade Optional" components. Also you can visit AOpen official web site: www.aopen.com.tw to get detailed information. 18 MX3W-E3 / MX3W-V3 Cl e a r C M O S D a t a Online Manual You can clear CMOS to restore system default setting.
