BIOS Operation

The COMe-cTH6 COM supports carrier board SPI devices. Carrier board SPI boot support is new with COM Express Rev
2.

9.1 Determining the BIOS Version

The COMe-cTH6 COM has an AMI Aptio© UEFI BIOS firmware installed on the onboard 4MB SPI flash device. To
determine the BIOS firmware version, press the Delete key on your keyboard while booting to enter the BIOS Setup
Utility. On the utility Main BIOS Information page, the BIOS Project Version is displayed.

9.2 BIOS Setup Guide

The AMI Aptio© Setup Utility changes system behavior by modifying the BIOS configuration. The setup program uses
a number of menus to make changes and turn features on or off.

NOTE: Selecting incorrect values may cause system boot failure. Load setup default values to recover by pressing
<F3>.

Start AMI Aptio© Setup Utility

To start the AMI Aptio© setup utility, press <Delete> when the keyboard first become active during boot-up. It is
sometimes helpful to press the <Delete> key multiple times until the BIOS setup utility is activated.

The Info menu then appears.
