Setup Program

The Setup program writes information about the equipment, security
and power management of your computer directly into ROM (Read-Only
Memory) in the computer’s hardware (it is stored in the computer’s BIOS
chip). When you turn on your computer, it first looks at this information
to see what the physical devices the system has available for its use.
Access to the Setup menu is during the boot process. When you first start
the computer, you will be able to enter the Setup mode (by pressing the
[F2] key). If your system begins with the BIOS logo (this is the default
boot option), you should press the [F2] key when you see the logo. If
you wish to enter after the computer has booted, you will need to exit
Windows (or whatever operating system you are running). You can restart
the computer by selecting Shut Down in the Start menu, then selecting
the Restart option. When the computer starts to reboot, press the [F2] key
to enter the program.

Main Menu

Once you have entered the Setup program, you will be greeted by the
Main Menu. (Figure 7.1) This menu allows you to make changes to the
basic setup of your system (e.g. time or default display). You will notice
that at the bottom of the window are the commands for navigating the
Setup program. These commands are the same for all menus in the Setup
program.
