Setup Program
The Setup program writes information about the equipment, security and
power management of your computer directly into ROM (Read-Only
Memory) in the computer’s hardware (it is stored in the computer’s BIOS
chip). When you turn on your computer, it first looks at this information to
see what the physical devices the system has available for its use.
Access to the Setup menu is during the boot process. When you first start
the computer, you will be offered the chance to enter the Setup mode (by
pressing the [Del] key). If you wish to enter after the computer has booted,
you will need to exit Windows 98 (or whatever operating system you are
running). You can restart the computer by selecting Shut Down in the Start
menu, then selecting the Restart option. When the computer starts to
reboot, press the [Del] key to enter the program.
Setup Utility Menu
Once you have entered the Setup program, you will arrive at the Setup
utility menu. Scroll down to an item using the up-arrow and down-arrow
keys or the Tab key. To select an item, hit Enter. (Figure 8.1)
In any of the menus, you can use the Tab key or arrows to move between
items. Use the [PgUp] and [PgDn] keys to change the settings for a given
item. Use the [Esc] key to move from a menu back to the main screen of
the Setup utility.
Standard CMOS Setup: Selecting this item calls up the Standard CMOS
Setup menu, which controls basic system information such as date, time,
and drives. See the section on this menu below for specific instructions.
Advanced CMOS Setup: Selecting this item calls up the Advanced
CMOS Setup menu, which controls advanced system information such as
hardware access and boot settings. See the section on this menu below for
specific instructions.
