EXITING AMIBIOS SETUP
15.03.1 MAKING SELECTIONS
Each of the windows displayed in the main menu screen contains icons (small drawings
under which an identifying label appears). For example, the Setup window has the
following icons and labels: Standard, Advanced, Chipset, Power Mgmt, PCI/PnP and
Peripheral. Each of these icons corresponds to various setups available within
AMIBIOS Setup, i.e. the Standard Setup, the Advanced Setup, the Chipset Setup, the
Power Management Setup, the PCI/Plug and Play Setup and the Peripheral Setup.
Selecting one of these icons gives access to the corresponding Setup and its options.
To select an icon within a window, you must press one of the arrow keys on the
keyboard until the desired icon is highlighted, and then press the ENTER key (or if a
PS/2 mouse was detected, move the arrow cursor over the desired icon, and click the
left mouse button). This method of selection basically applies for opening windows, a
scroll list of options, and option pop-ups.
When a value needs to be entered, a window appears which resembles a keyboard
indicating that a value needs to be entered using the keyboard; as you type, the
characters are displayed (in the case of a password entry, "*" is displayed for each
character entered); to accept the value you typed, press the ENTER key.
When an option value needs to be modified, select the option from the control list: a
pop-up window appears next to the displayed value. Press the + or - key on the
keyboard or numeric keypad to display other available values, then press ENTER to
accept this value.
To select an icon or an option, first use one of the arrow keys to highlight the
desired icon or option, then press the ENTER key (or click the mouse over the
desired selection).
To modify an option value, use the option pop-up window which appears on the
screen when the option is selected; pressing the + or - key toggles the display
among the available values. When the desired value is displayed, press ENTER
or click the mouse to accept that value.
In the case of values which must be typed in at the keyboard, enter the desired
value then press the ENTER key to accept it.
