The AMI UEFI BIOS provides users with a built-in setup program to modify basic
system configuration. All configured parameters are stored in a 16MB flash chip to
save the setup information whenever the power is turned off. This chapter provides
users with detailed description about how to set up basic system configuration
through the AMI BIOS setup utility.
