Setup menu and navigation
The BIOS setup screen is composed of the menu bar and two main frames. The menu
bar is shown below. The left frame displays all the options that can be configured in the
selected menu. Grayed-out options cannot be configured. Only the blue options can be
configured. When an option is selected, it is highlighted in white.
The right frame displays the key legend. Above the key legend is an area reserved for
text messages. These text messages explain the options and the possible impacts when
changing the selected option in the left frame.
The setup program uses a key-based navigation system. Most of the keys can be used
at any time while in setup. The table below explains the supported keys:
