Setup Menu
The computer employs the latest AMI BIOS CMOS chip with support for Windows Plug and Play.
This CMOS chip contains the ROM Setup instructions for configuring the mainaboard’s BIOS. The
BIOS(Basic Input and Output System) Setup utility is a menu driven utility that enables you to make
changes to the system configuration and tailor your system to suit your individual work needs.
BIOS is a ROM-based configuration utility that displays the system’s configuration status and
provides you with a tool to set system parameters. These parameters are stored in non-volatile
battery-backed-up CMOS RAM that saves this information even when the power is turned off.
When the system is turned back on, the system is configured with the values found in CMOS.
Configure such items as:
-- Hard drives, diskette drives, and peripherals
-- Password protection from unauthorized use
-- Power Management Features
This Setup utility should be executed under the following conditions:
-- When changing the system configuration
-- When a configuration error is detected by the system and you are prompted to make changes
to the Setup utility.
-- When redefining the communication ports to prevent any conflicts
--When making changes to the Power Management configuration
--When changing the password or making other changes to the security setup
