Using the System Setup Program
The System Setup program is the BIOS program that enables you to manage
your system hardware and specify BIOS-level options. From the System Setup
program, you can:
• Change the NVRAM settings after you add or remove hardware
• View the system hardware configuration
• Enable or disable integrated devices
• Set performance and power management thresholds
• Manage system security
System Setup Menu
The system employs the latest Insyde
®
BIOS, which is stored in Flash
memory. The Flash memory supports the Plug and Play specification, and
contains a System Setup program, the Power On Self Test (POST) routine,
and the PCI auto-configuration utility.
This system supports system BIOS shadowing which enables the BIOS to
execute from 64-bit onboard write-protected DRAM.
You can configure items such as:
• Hard-drives and peripherals
• Password protection
• Power management features
The Setup utility should be executed under the following conditions:
• When changing the system configuration
• When a configuration error is detected by the system and you are
prompted to make changes to the Setup utility
• When redefining the communication ports to prevent any conflicts
