Program
The Setup program has been designed to make it as easy to use as possible. It is a menu driven
program, which means you can scroll through the various directories and make your selections
among the various predetermined choices. If you accidentally configure a setting, use the BIOS
hot keys to return to the previous value. The hot keys are discussed in more detail later in this
chapter.
When turning on your notebook for the first time you may be prompted to run the BIOS Setup
program. A warning message may appear on the screen if the hardware configuration is changed
or the POST fails. This message will inform you of any errors or invalid settings and prompt you to
run the Setup program to correct the problem.
Even if you are not prompted by a message instructing you to use the Setup program, at some
time in the future you may want to change the configuration of your notebook. It will then be
necessary to reconfigure your system using the Setup program so that your notebook can
recognize these changes.
The list below gives a few examples of reasons why you may want or need to run the BIOS Setup
program.
ƒ You have set up your notebook for the first time and you got a message stating that you
should run the BIOS Setup program.
ƒ
You want to redefine the communication ports to prevent any conflicts.
The few examples listed above are by no means complete.
