Chapter 4: BIOS Setup

Default Configuration

Most of the configuration settings are either predefined according to
the Load Optimal Defaults settings which are stored in the BIOS or are
automatically detected and configured without requiring any actions.
There are a few settings that you may need to change depending on your
system configuration.

Entering Setup

When the system is powered on, the BIOS will enter the Power-On Self
Test (POST) routines. These routines perform various diagnostic checks; if
an error is encountered, the error will be reported in one of two different
ways:

If the error occurs before the display device is initialized, a series of

beeps will be transmitted.

If the error occurs after the display device is initialized, the screen will

display the error message.

Powering on the computer and immediately pressing <Del> allows you
to enter Setup. Another way to enter Setup is to power on the computer
and wait for the following message during the POST:
