3.5 BIOS Configuration Overview
This section gives an introduction to the Phoenix/Award Plug and
Play BIOS Setup Utility.
The BIOS has many separately configurable features. These fea-
tures are selected by running the built-in Setup utility. System con-
figuration settings are saved in a portion of the battery-backed
RAM in the real-time clock device and are used by the BIOS to ini-
tialize the system at boot up or reset. The configuration is pro-
tected by a checksum word for system integrity.
To access the Setup utility, press the "Del" key during system
RAM check at boot time. When Setup runs, an interactive configu-
ration screen displays.
Setup parameters are divided into different categories. The avail-
able categories are listed in a menu. The parameters of the high-
lighted (current) category are listed in the bottom portion of the
Setup screen. Context sensitive help is displayed in the right por-
tion of the screen for each parameter.
Use the arrow keys to select a category from the menu. To dis-
play a submenu, highlight the category and then press the "Enter"
key.
3.6 Operating System Installation
For more detailed information about your operating system, refer
to the documentation provided by the operating system vendor.
Installing peripheral devices: NuPRO devices are automatically
configured by the BIOS during the boot sequence.
Most operating systems require initial installation on a hard drive
from a floppy or CDROM drive. These devices should be config-
ured, installed, and tested with the supplied drivers before
attempting to load the new operating system.
Read the release notes and installation documentation provided
by the operating system vendor. Be sure to read any README
