126 Appendix D: Matrox 4Sight GPm (Bay Trail) BIOS reference
Overview
BIOS stands for basic input/output system. It acts as an interface between the
operating system and the hardware. When the unit is turned on, it is the BIOS
that is responsible for booting up the unit, and loading the operating system that
is used to run applications. The computer BIOS is written on a flash memory chip
installed on the Matrox 4Sight GPm (Bay Trail) motherboard.
You can change computer BIOS settings by running a program called the BIOS
Setup Utility, which can be accessed soon after turning on the unit
1
. When you
save these BIOS settings, they are saved to the BIOS flash memory chip.
This appendix shows you how to access and change the settings of the BIOS Setup
Utility.

Software Corp. Some of the menu items are not applicable to the supported
operating systems of the Matrox 4Sight GPm (Bay Trail) unit.
