The BIOS setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. In this

following chapter will describe how to access the BIOS setup program and the

configuration options that may be changed.

The BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The BIOS reads

the system information contained in the NVRAM and begins the process of checking out

the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on

one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating system.

While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways:

system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" button on the

system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing , , and

keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an error
