BIOS Setup Utility
The BIOS Setup Utility can be used to set your notebook's system parameters.
Things like the date and time or what your computer will do are what you set in
the BIOS Setup Utility.
The settings are stored in a nonvolatile battery-backed CMOS RAM. This
means that your settings are saved even when the notebook is turned off.
