Using BIOS
When you start the Setup Utility, the main menu appears. The
main menu of the Setup Utility shows a list of the options that
are available. A highlight indicates which option is currently se-
lected. You can use the cursor arrow keys to move the highlight
to other options. When an option is highlighted, you can execute
the option by pressing the enter key.
Some options lead to pop-up dialog boxes that may ask you to
verify that you wish to execute that option. You usually answer
these dialogs by typing Y for yes and N for no. Some options
may lead to more dialog boxes that ask for more information.
Setting passwords have this kind of dialog box.
