Using BIOS
When you start the Setup Utility, the main menu appears. The main menu of the
Setup Utility displays a list of the options that are available. A highlight indicates
which option is currently selected. Use the cursor arrow keys to move the highlight
to other options. When an option is highlighted, execute the option by pressing
<Enter>.
Some options lead to pop-up dialog boxes that prompt you to verify that you wish to
execute that option. Other options lead to dialog boxes that prompt you for infor-
mation.
Some options (marked with a triangle

the values for the option. Use the cursor arrow keys to scroll through the items in the
submenu.

in the BIOS setup and the manufacture takes no responsibility to any dam-
