CPU The VIA COME8X80 board is designed with the VIA Nano 1.6 GHz NanoBGA2 processor. Other processor options (e.g., VIA Nano 800 MHz NanoBGA2 processor) are also available as manufacturing options. The VIA Nano 1.6 GHz processors requires a heatsink with fan to provide sufficient cooling.

CPU Fan Connector: CPUFAN CPUFAN run on +12V and maintains system cooling. When connecting the cable to the connector, always be aware that the red wire (positive wire) should be connected to the +12V pin. The black wire is the ground wire and should always be connected to GND.

SET SUPERVISOR/USER PASSWORD

This option is for setting a password for entering BIOS Setup. When a password has been set, a password prompt will be displayed whenever BIOS Setup is run. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system configuration.

There are two types of passwords you can set. A supervisor password and a user password. When a supervisor password is used, the BIOS Setup program can be accessed and the BIOS settings can be changed. When a user password is used, the BIOS Setup program can be accessed but the BIOS settings cannot be changed.

To set the password, type the password (up to eight characters in length) and press <Enter><Enter><Enter><Enter>. The password typed now will clear any previously set password from CMOS memory. The new password will need to be reentered to be confirmed. To cancel the process press <Esc><Esc><Esc><Esc>.

To disable the password, press <Enter><Enter><Enter><Enter> when prompted to enter a new password. A message will show up to confirm disabling the password. To cancel the process press <Esc><Esc><Esc><Esc>.

Additionally, when a password is enabled, the BIOS can be set to request the password each time the system is booted. This would prevent unauthorized use of the system. See “Security Option” in the “Advanced BIOS Features” section for more details.
