Using BIOS setup
26
To run BIOS setup, press the <F2> key immediately when the
BenQ logo appears on the screen during system startup. The
logo shows up on the screen for only a few seconds, so you must
press the <F2> key at the time. The BIOS setup main screen will
appear as follows.
The BIOS setup screen can be divided into four areas:
• On the top line is the menu bar containing the titles of
available menus. Each menu title contains a specific menu.
• The center left column of the menu contains information
regarding the current settings of the system. If you open a pull-
down menu and select an item that provides multiple options,
the left column will display a submenu where you can make
further selections.
• The right column of the menu contains Help information
about the current menu selected. When a menu item is
highlighted, more detailed information is given.
• The bottom lines of the menu provide keyboard instructions
for moving around and making selections.
