This section explains how to use the BIOS SETUP UTILITY to configure your system.
The SPI Memory on the motherboard stores the BIOS SETUP UTILITY. You may run the
BIOS SETUP UTILITY when you start up the computer. Please press <F2> during the
Power-On-Self-Test (POST) to enter the BIOS SETUP UTILITY, otherwise, POST will
continue with its test routines.
If you wish to enter the BIOS SETUP UTILITY after POST, restart the system by press-
ing <Ctl> + <Alt> + <Delete>, or by pressing the reset button on the system chassis.
You may also restart by turning the system off and then back on.
Because the BIOS software is constantly being updated, the follow-
ing BIOS setup screens and descriptions are for reference purpose
only, and they may not exactly match what you see on your screen.
