accompanied your operating system.

The System Setup screen displays the current setup and configuration information
and optional settings for your system. (Typical examples are illustrated in Figure 2-1.)
Information on the System Setup screen is organized in four areas:
‡
Title box
The box at the top of the screen lists the system name.
‡
System data
The two boxes below the title box display information about your system, such as
the basic input/output system (BIOS) revision number.
‡
Configuration options
The box under the system data boxes lists options that define the installed hard-
ware in your computer.
Fields beside the options contain options or values; you can change those that
appear in white on the screen. You cannot change options or values that appear
in a color highlight because they are determined by the system.
Some options have multiple fields, which may show options or values as bright or
less bright depending upon what options or values you entered in other fields.
‡
Key functions
The line of boxes across the bottom of the screen lists keys and their functions
within the System Setup program.
