About the BIOS Setup utility
The computer’s BIOS has a built-in setup utility that lets you configure several
basic computer characteristics. The settings are stored in battery-backed RAM
and are retained even when the power is off.
Important The computer starts very quickly. If your monitor requires
time to warm up, you may not see the messages. If you
are having problems, you may need to wait for the monitor
to warm up and then restart the computer. If you are trying
to enter Setup, press
F1 before the monitor warms up.
