1. Introduction
This section discusses AMI’s Setup program built into the FLASH ROM BIOS. The Setup program
allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This special information is stored in FLASH
ROM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off.
The rest of this section is intended to guide you through the process of configuring your system
using Setup.
1. Starting Setup
The BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The BIOS reads the system
information contained in the CMOS ROM and begins the process of checking out the system and
configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then
launch and turn control over to the operating system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways:
⚫
By pressing <Del> or <F2> immediately after switching the system on, or
⚫
By pressing the <Del> or <F2> key when the following message appears briefly at the bottom
of the screen during the POST (Power On Self-Test).
Press <DEL> or <ESC> to enter setup.
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system
to try again by turning it OFF then ON. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>,
and <Delete> keys when USB Keyboard Support is set to Enabled.
