Chapter 2 System Utilities Most systems are already configured by the manufacturer or the dealer. There is no need to run Setup when starting the computer unless you get a Run Setup message. The Setup program loads configuration values into the battery-backed nonvolatile memory called CMOS RAM. This memory area is not part of the system RAM. NOTE: If you repeatedly receive Run Setup messages, the battery may be bad/flat. In this case, the system cannot retain configuration values in CMOS.
Entering Setup Power on the computer and the system will start POST (Power On Self Test)process. When the message of “Press DEL to enter SETUP” appears on the screen, press the key of [Delete] to enter the setup menu. NOTE: If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system by turning it OFF and On. You may also restart the system by simultaneously pressing [Ctrl+Alt+Delete].
The items in the main menu are explained below: T Product Information To introduce the Product Name,System P/N and MainBoard ID...etc. T Standard CMOS Features The basic system configuration can be set up through this menu. T Advanced BIOS Features The advanced system features can be set up through this menu. T Advanced Chipset Features The values for the chipset can be changed through this menu, and the system performance can be optimized.
Product Information The screen below appears if you select Product Information from the main menu: The Product Information menu contains general data about the system, such as the product name, serial number, BIOS version, etc. These information is necessary for troubleshooting (maybe required when asking for technical support).
