UEFI Set-up Utility
Chapter Objectives This chapter provides information about the set-up utility. It includes an
overview of set-up utility settings that you can change and how to upgrade to a
new universal extensible firmware interface (UEFI). In this chapter, UEFI
replaces Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) to describe the system firmware
except where BIOS is used, such as on a graphical interface.
The chapter covers the following topics:
• Set-up Utility Overview
• Access the Set-up Utility
• Set-up Screen Overview
• Firmware Update
• Firmware Configuration
• Diagnostics
• AMI Rescue
• Exit
Set-up Utility Overview The set-up utility is a hardware configuration program that is built into the
UEFI. The UEFI is already configured and optimized so there is no need to run
this utility. However, you can run the set-up utility to do the following:
• Change the system configuration.
• Change the UEFI setup when the system detects a configuration error.
• Redefine communication ports to prevent any conflicts.
• Read the current amount of system memory.
• Change the boot drive.
• Set or change the password or make other changes to the security settings.
• Upgrade the system firmware.
• Run the diagnostic utility to determine the cause of system malfunction.
• Restore or back up the operating system.
