Chapter 4. Firmware setup utility

Your console includes a flash ROM (read-only memory) chip on the system board. It contains code to start
up the console. The ROM chip and the stored code are referred to as the console’s firmware. Firmware plays
a key role in the operation of the console. When you turn on the console, the firmware checks and initiates
the console’s hardware devices. It also checks the boot device for completeness and security, before
executing the code to start up the operating system.

A Lenovo console usually provides a setup utility that allows you to change some firmware settings. You can
use Windows advanced startup to restart your console and open the firmware setup utility.

For normal use, you will rarely use the firmware setup utility.
