3.1 Introduction
ASRock Interactive UEFI is a blend of system configuration tools, cool
sound effects and stunning visuals. Not only will it make BIOS setup less
dificult but also a lot more amusing. This section explains how to use the
UEFI SETUP UTILITY to configure your system. The UEFI chip on the
motherboard stores the UEFI SETUP UTILITY. You may run the UEFI
SETUP UTILITY when you start up the computer. Please press <F2> or
<Del> during the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) to enter the UEFI S
ETUP
UTILITY, otherawise, POST will continue with its test routines.
If you wish to enter the UEFI SETUP UTILITY after POST, restart the sys-
tem by pressing <Ctl> + <Alt> + <Delete>, or by pressing the reset button
on the system chassis. You may also restart by turning the system off and
then back on.
