Clear RTC RAM (CLRTC)Clear RTC RAM (CLRTC)Clear RTC RAM (CLRTC)Clear RTC RAM (CLRTC)Clear RTC RAM (CLRTC)This jumper allows you to clear the Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM inCMOS. You can clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and systemsetup parameters by erasing the CMOS RTC RAM data. The onboardbutton cell battery powers the RAM data in CMOS, which includesystem setup information such as system passwords.To erase the RTC RAM:1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.2. Remove the onboard battery.3. Move the jumper cap from pins 1-2 (default) to pins 2-3. Keep thecap on pins 2-3 for about 5~10 seconds, then move the cap back topins 1-2.4. Re-install the battery.5. Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.6. Hold down the <Del> key during the boot process and enter BIOSsetup to re-enter data.Except when clearing the RTC RAM, never remove the cap on CLRTCjumper default position. Removing the cap will cause system boot failure!You do not need to clear the RTC when the system hangs due tooverclocking. For system failure due to overclocking, use the C.P.R. (CPUParameter Recall) feature. Shut down and reboot the system so the BIOScan automatically reset parameter settings to default values.12 23A8V-EDELUXE®A8V-E DELUXE Clear RTC RAMCLRTCNormal Clear CMOS(Default)
