NEC EXPRESS5800 N8800-099F - Manual (Page 61)

Windows Setup 4-9
Step 3: Disable Boot Monitoring Function
Check whether the power is ON and make settings for properly performing setup for later on.
This equipment has a function to monitor the main unit at startup. (Enabled in the configuration at
shipment)
When reinstalling the operating system, this monitoring function needs to be disabled. Otherwise
the installation may not be done properly. Follow the steps in this section and make proper settings.
IMPORTANT:
If you skip the settings described here, the system will be restarted forcefully while
Windows setup screen is shown and the setup will be unsuccessful; BIOS may repeat
Windows setup in an invalid manner. In this case, you will need to restart the setup
procedures from the beginning.
TIPS:
For details of operations for BIOS Setup Utility and parameters, see the separate volume of
User’s Guide.
