AMI BIOS Setup Utility
4.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the AMI BIOS Setup Utility for the NanoPAK
®
Single Board
Computer. The AMI ROM BIOS is stored in a Flash EEPROM and can be easily
updated. This chapter explains the basic navigation of the AMI BIOS Setup Utility
setup screens.
4.1.1 Starting the BIOS Setup Utility
Turn on the computer and check for the “patch code”. If there is a number assigned
to the patch code, the on board CPU is supported by current BIOS. If there is no
number assigned to the patch code, please contact a Themis application engineer to
obtain an up-to-date patch code file, to ensure the system status of CPU is valid.
Then press <DEL> to enter Setup menu.
Caution: Do not upgrade the BIOS unless your system has a BIOS-related issue.
Flashing the wrong BIOS can cause irreparable damage to the system. In no event
shall Themis be liable for direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential dam-
ages arising from a BIOS update. If you have to update the BIOS, do not shut down
or reset the system while the BIOS is updating. This is to avoid possible boot fail-
ure.
