standard boot sequence including a Power On Self Test (POST). When the boot
sequence is completed without a failure and without a request for the BIOS Setup
Utility, the system displays the operating system’s opening screen.
The boot sequence is executed when:
• You turn on the power to your notebook.
• You restart your notebook from the Windows Shut Down dialog box.
• The software initiates a system restart. Example: When you install a new application.

The BIOS Setup Utility configures:
• Device control feature parameters, such as changing I/O addresses and boot
devices.
• System Data Security feature parameters, such as passwords.
