BKSP key
Reset an Enable/Disable or multiple-choice field, or back-up in numeric or string
fields.
Digits (0-9)
Used to enter numeric parameters.
Alphabetic (A-Z, a-z)
Used to enter text data on ASCII fields such as email addresses.
Special symbols
(!@#$%^&*_-+={}[], etc.)
Used to enter special text on ASCII fields that permit these characters.
The basic idea when using the Setup system is to navigate to the menus containing fields you want to review, and
change those fields as desired. When your settings are complete, navigate to the EXIT menu, and select “Save
Settings and Restart”. This causes the settings to be stored in nonvolatile memory in the system, and the system will
reboot so that POST can configure itself with the new settings.
After rebooting it may be desirable to reenter the Setup system as necessary to adjust settings as necessary.
Once the system boots, the Setup system cannot be entered; this is because the memory used by the BIOS
configuration manager is deallocated by the system BIOS, so that it can be used by the OS when it boots. To reenter
the Setup system after boot, simply reset the system or power off and power back on.

Main Setup Menu
The first menu always showing in the Setup system is the Main menu (unless disabled by the
OEM.) This menu is shown in Figure 3.1 below.
The Main menu provides a system summary about the BIOS, processor, system memory, date and time, and any
other items configured by the OEM. The BIOS information is obtained by Setup from the internal system BIOS build
itself; this information is useful when obtaining support for your system.

DIRECTLY.
