Chapter 5: BIOS Utilities
Overview
This chapter gives a brief introduction to the computer’s built-in
software:
Diagnostics: the POST (Power-On Self Test)
Configuration:the Setup utility
If your computer has never been set up, or you are making important
changes to the system (e.g. hard disk setup), then you should review
this chapter first and note the original settings found in Setup. Even
if you are a beginner, keep a record of the settings you find and any
changes you make. This information could be useful if your system
ever needs servicing.
There is one general rule: Don’t make any changes unless you are
sure of what you are doing. Many of the settings are required by the
system, and changing them could cause it to become unstable or
worse. If you have any doubts, consult your service representative.
