The RAC6181 Pentium CPU BIOS is a Phoenix OEM BIOS. The
Pentium III CPU BIOS is an Award BIOS. It is contained in a flash
EPROM, and can be upgraded in the field using a factory-provided DOS
utility. The RAC6181 BIOS varies with the RAC6181 display option.
The CPU card ships with the proper BIOS for the selected display. Note
that exchanging CPU cards between units may cause BIOS
incompatibilities.

Accessing the BIOS Setup Screen

The BIOS Setup screen can be entered during power-up by pressing the
F2 key (Pentium CPU) or DEL key (Pentium III CPU) immediately
following the RAM test. Because the keyboard is not buffered during
this stage of power-up, the key may need to be repeatedly depressed to
enter the BIOS Setup screen.

Note:

You may need to determine the installed version of the
BIOS before contacting technical support. The BIOS Setup
screen displays the installed version of the BIOS.
