Chapter 3: BIOS Setup
3.1 - About the BIOS
The BIOS is the basic input/output system, the firmware on the motherboard that
enables your hardware to interface with your software. The BIOS determines
what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. The BIOS
contains all the code required to control the keyboard, display screen, disk drives,
serial communications, and a number of miscellaneous functions. This chapter
describes the various BIOS settings that can be used to configure your system.
The BIOS section of this manual is subject to change without notice and is
provided for reference purposes only. The settings and configurations of the BIOS
are current at the time of print and are subject to change, and therefore may not
match exactly what is displayed on screen.
This section describes the BIOS setup program. The setup program lets you
modify basic configuration settings. The settings are then stored in a dedicated,
battery-backed memory (called NVRAM) that retains the information even when
the power is turned off.
To start the BIOS setup utility:
1. Turn on or reboot your system.
2. Press <Del> during POST (<Tab> on remote console) to start the BIOS
setup utility.
