Even if you are not prompted to use the Setup program, you can change the configuration of your
computer in the future. For exampla, you can enable the security password feature or make
changes to the power management settings. This requires you to reconfigure your system using the
BIOS Setup program so that the computer can recognize these changes and record them in the
CMOS RAM of the LPC chip.
The LPC chip on the mainboard stores the Setup utility. When you start up the computer, the
system provides you with the opportunity to run this program. Press
Del during the Power-On Self
Test (POST) to enter the Setup utility; otherwise, POST continues with ist test routines.
To enter Setup after POST, restart the system by pressing
Ctrl + Alt + Del . You can also
restart by turning the system off and then back on. Do this last option only when the first fails.
The Setup program is designed to make it as easy to use as possible. Being a menu-driven
program, it lets you scroll through the various sub-menus and make your selections among the
predertermined choices.
