you to select various setup parameters.

Startup: Set the startup device.

To enter the BIOS Setup Utility, do as follows:

To protect yourself against accidental loss of data, back up your data and
computer registry. For details, see “Basics” in

.
2.
Turn off the computer, and then turn it on again.

When the ThinkPad logo comes up, immediately press F1 to enter the
BIOS Setup Utility.
If you have set a supervisor password, the BIOS Setup Utility menu
appears after you enter the password. You can start the utility by pressing
Enter instead of entering the supervisor password; however, you cannot
change the parameters that are protected by the supervisor password. For
more information, see the on-board help.
4.
Using the cursor keys, move to an item you want to change. When the
item you want is highlighted, press Enter. A submenu is displayed.

Change the items you wish to change. To change the value of an item, use
the F5 or F6 key. If the item has a submenu, you can display it by pressing
Enter.

Press F3 or Esc to exit from the submenu. If you are in a nested submenu,
press Esc repeatedly until you reach the
BIOS Setup Utility
menu.
Note:
If you need to restore the settings to their original state as of the
time of purchase, press F9 key to load the default settings. You can also
select an option in the Restart submenu to load the default settings or
discard the changes.
