Avoiding CMOS Setting Utility password requests after a BIOS update.

When updating from any BIOS version older than fn85s015.bin, CMOS Setting Utility will request you to enter a password. To avoid this request, you have two options. Prior to flashing, check the Clear CMOS tab in the WinFlash utility. Or. After flashing, clear CMOS with a jumper (remember to power down and disconnect the power cord).

Note: If you use Award flash utility and update BIOS in DOS-Mode, please type the command: awdflash.exe fn85sxxx.bin /cc (where fn85sxxx.bin is the current BIOS version you have)
