Express Gate [Auto]

Allows you to enable or disable the ASUS Express Gate feature. The ASUS Express Gate

and Skype. Configuration options: [Enabled] [Disabled] [Auto]

Enter OS Timer [10 Seconds]

Reset User Data [No]

Allows you to clear Express Gate’s user data.

Configuration options: [No] [Reset]

When setting this item to [Reset], make sure to save the setting to the BIOS so that

the user data will be cleared the next time you enter the Express Gate. User data

includes the Express Gate’s settings as well as any personal information stored by the

web browser (bookmarks, cookies, browsing history, etc.). This is useful in the rare

case where corrupt settings prevent the Express Gate environment from launching

properly.

The first time wizard will run again when you enter the Express Gate environment after

clearing its settings.

Password Check [Setup]

When set to [Setup], BIOS checks for user password when accessing the Setup utility. When

set to [Always], BIOS checks for user password both when accessing Setup and booting the

system. Configuration options: [Setup] [Always]
