Per the manufacturers website (ABIT), it states one should clear the
CMOS (by moving the jumper off for a couple seconds) after updating the
BIOS. I never found this necessary in the past, and have updated the
BIOS without doing so. All of the additional features in the new BIOS
are available. Am I potentially harming the computer?
Also, I upped the CPU core voltage to 1.5 from 1.4. This is an AMD 3500
processor. What harm could this cause? It's potential is 1.8, but I
think that's extreme and unnecessary.
