4.1 Introduction
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in the ROM of your computer
system supports Intel
®
processors. The BIOS provides critical low-level support for
standard devices such as disk drives, serial ports and parallel ports. It also
provides password protection as well as special support for detailed fine-tuning of
the chipset controlling the entire system.
4.2 BIOS Setup
The BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the system configurations
and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores the Setup utility. When you turn
on the computer, the BIOS is immediately activated. Press the <Del> key
immediately allows you to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit late pressing
the <Del> key, POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its test routines, thus
preventing you from invoking the Setup.
If you still need
to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing the ”Reset” button or
simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys.
You can also restart by turning the system Off and back On again.
The following message will appear on the screen:
Press <DEL> to Enter Setup
In general, press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to select, the <PgUp>
and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help, and <Esc> to quit.
