SETTING

DESCRIPTION

Disabled

Use this setting to preclude the BIOS from waiting on an error for user intervention. In this
case the system will continue booting up to the operating system.
This setting should be used if there is a known reason for a BIOS error to occur such as the
computer system does not have a keyboard currently attached.

Enabled

Use this setting to direct the BIOS to wait on an error for user intervention.
If an error is detected, it may be possible to correct it by changing a BIOS setting. To do this,
press <F1> to enter the BIOS Setup, and then change the BIOS setting as required. This can
happen when upgrading the hardware, and the BIOS has not been set to recognize it.
