Wait for F1 If Any Error
Before the system boots, the BIOS executes POST (power-on
self test), a series of system diagnostic routines. If any of these
tests generate a non-fatal error and the system can still
function, the BIOS will respond with an appropriate error
message followed by:
Press <F1> to continue.
If this option is disabled, non-fatal errors will not generate the
above statement, but the BIOS will still display the appropriate
error message, eliminating the need for user responses to non-
fatal errors.
System Boot Up Num Lock
You can turn off the Num Lock option on the Enhanced
Keyboard when the system is powered on. This permits the use
of the arrow keys on both the numeric keypad and the
Enhanced Keyboard. The BIOS default is
Num Lock on.
