Notes before using the BIOS Setup:
■ In normal cases, changes in system configuration should be made in
Windows using TOSHIBA HW Setup, TOSHIBA Password Utility,
TOSHIBA Power Saver, Device Manager, etc. If the configuration in the
BIOS setup program is different from the configuration in the Windows
utility, the configuration in the Windows utility takes priority.
■ Depending on the system, changes made to the system configuration
might not be reflected.
■ The settings in the BIOS setup program are not erased even if the
power supply is switched off. However, if the built-in battery
(RTC battery) runs out of power, the settings will revert back to their
default values.
■ The following item does not revert back to their default values:
■ Password
■ HDD Password
■ Security controller.
■ Select either the Execute-Disable Bit Capability or settings in the
security controller to make changes. Please refer to the operating
instructions displayed in the settings screen.
