7.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the AMI BIOS Setup utility for the R423-E3 serverboard. It also
provides the instructions on how to navigate the AMI BIOS Setup utility screens. The AMI
ROM BIOS is stored in a Flash EEPROM and can be easily updated .
7.1.1 Starting BIOS Setup Utility
To enter the AMI BIOS Setup Utility, press the <Del> key while the system is booting-up.
Note In most cases, the <Del> key is used to invoke the AMI BIOS setup screen. There are a few
cases when other keys are used, such as <F3>, <F4>, etc
Each main BIOS menu option is described in this manual. The Main BIOS setup menu
screen has two main frames. The left frame displays all the options that can be configured.
Grayed-out options cannot be configured. Options in blue can be configured by the
user. The right frame displays the key legend. Above the key legend is an area
reserved for informational text. When an option is selected in the left frame, it is
highlighted in white. Often informational text will accompany it.
Note The AMI BIOS has default informational messages built in. The manufacturer retains the
option to include, omit, or change any of these messages.
The AMI BIOS Setup Utility uses a key-based navigation system called “hot keys”. Most of
these “hot keys” can be used at any time during the setup navigation process. These keys
include <F3>, <F4>, <Enter>, <ESC>, arrow keys, etc.
Notes  Options printed in Bold are default settings.

<F3> is used to load optimal default settings. <F4> is used to save the current settings
and exit the setup utility.
7.1.2 How to Change the Configuration Data
The configuration data that determines the system parameters may be changed by entering
the AMI BIOS Setup utility. This Setup utility can be accessed by pressing <Delete> at the
appropriate time during system boot.
7.1.3 Starting the Setup Utility
Normally, the only visible Power-On Self-Test (POST) routine is the memory test. As the
memory is being tested, press the <Delete> key to enter the main menu of the AMI BIOS
Setup Utility. From the main menu, you can access the other setup screens. An AMI BIOS
identification string is displayed at the left bottom corner of the screen below the copyright
message.
