BIOS Setup
Your NEC Versa SX computer comes with a hardware program called
BIOS Setup that allows you to view and set system parameters. BIOS
Setup also allows you to set password features that protect your system
from unauthorized use.
Use BIOS Setup to:
„
set the current time and date
„
customize your operating system to reflect your computer hardware
„
secure your system with a password
„
balance your performance needs with power conservation.
How to Enter the BIOS Setup
Access the BIOS utility at power-on. Just press
F2
when the following
prompt appears.
Press <ESC> for Boot Messages, <F2> for Setup.
When you press F2 to enter BIOS Setup, the system interrupts the
Power-On Self-Test (POST) and displays the current CMOS RAM
available settings.
If the system detects an error during POST, it prompts you with a double
beep and a message: “Press <F1> to resume.” If you press
F1 , the system
enters BIOS Setup automatically. If you want to fix the error, carefully
read the error message that appears above the prompt (taking notes if
you want), and press
F2
.
