System Setup Screens
The system setup program screens display the current configuration information for your computer. Information on the screen is divided into five areas:

l Computer data — Two boxes below the title box that display your computer processor, L2 cache, service tag, and the version number of the BIOS.

features.
Fields to the right of the option titles contain settings or values. The fields that you can change appear bright on the screen. The fields that you cannot
