The First Screen

Express Gate’s first screen appears

within a few seconds after you power

on the computer. From here, you can

immediately start the web browser or

Skype.
You can also choose to continue booting

normally (e.g. to your installed OS such

as Windows), enter BIOS setup, or power

off.
If you don’t make any selection, Express

Gate will automatically exit and boot to your normal OS after a certain amount of

time. The timer countdown is shown on-screen inside the “boot to OS” button. As

you move the mouse or type a key, the countdown stops and the timer disappears,

so you can take your time to make a selection.

The Express Gate Environment

The very first time you enter the Express

Gate environment (by launching either

web or Skype from the first screen), a

first time wizard will guide you through

basic Express Gate configurations. Basic

configurations include language, date

and time and screen resolution.

5. Select the target disk volume for

you to install Express Gate. If you

have multiple volumes and OS

installed in your hard drive, it is

recommended to install Express

Gate in Volume C. Click Next to

continue.

6. Follow the screen instructions to

complete installation.

• To enter the motherboard BIOS setup program, click Exit on the Express

Gate First Screen, and then press the key during POST.

• See the software manual in the bundled motherboard support DVD or click

in the Express Gate environment for detailed software instructions.

• Express Gate complies with the OpenGL standard. Refer to http://support.
