Getting Help
After entering the Setup menu, the first menu you will see is the Main Menu.
Main M enu
The main menu lists the setup functions you can make changes to. You can use the
arrow keys (
↑↓)
to select the item. The on-line description of the highlighted setup
function is displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Sub-M enu
If you find a right pointer symbol (as shown in
the right view) appears to the left of certain
fields that means a sub-menu can be launched
from this field. A sub-menu contains additional options for a field parameter. You can
use arrow keys (
↑↓ )
to highlight the field and press <Enter> to call up the sub-menu.
Then you can use the control keys to enter values and move from field to field within
a sub-menu. If you want to return to the main menu, just press the <Esc >.
General Help <F1>
The BIOS setup program provides a General Help screen. You can call up this screen
from any menu by simply pressing <F1>. The Help screen lists the appropriate keys
to use and the possible selections for the highlighted item. Press <Esc> to exit the
Help screen.
