After an explanation of how to operate the utility
there is a summary of the various sections of the util-
ity. Normally, once your system is set up, you should
have little or no need to use the utility.
Using the CMOS Setup Utility
This section explains how to access and use the
CMOS Setup Utility interface.
Accessing The CMOS Setup Utility
When you turn on your computer, a message appears
on the screen indicating you can run the Setup pro-
gram by pressing the Del key -- it’s on the keypad
and the Delete key performs the same function. The
message appears at the end of the POST (Power On
Self Test).
If you want to run Setup but you don’t respond in
time before the message disappears, you can reset
the system by pressing the Ctrl + Alt + Delete keys
at the same time, or by pushing the system Reset but-
ton. The message will then reappear.
After you press the Del or Delete key the program
menu screen will appear, displaying the Setup utility
section names and some command instructions.
