configuration and to restore the system configuration from the backup.
The following menu options are available:

Configuring PCI
Boards Automatically
The System ROM automatically configures PCI boards. If a user selection is
required, a POST message directs the user to run the Compaq System
Configuration Utility.
Configuring EISA
Boards Automatically
You must run the Compaq System Configuration Utility when you install a
new EISA board. If you fail to initiate the System Configuration utility the
first time you turn on your computer after installing a new EISA board, a
POST error message indicates a configuration error, meaning that the
computer does not recognize the newly installed board.
