The Setup Program
The Phoenix Setup program tells the system how to configure itself
and manage basic features and subsystems (e.g. port configuration
and power management).
Entering Setup
To enter Setup, turn on the computer and press F2 during the POST.
The prompt seen in Figure 5 - 1 is usually present for a few seconds
after you turn on the system. If you get a “Keyboard Error” (usually
because you pressed F2 too quickly) just press F2 again.
If the computer is already on, reboot using the Ctrl + Alt + Delete
combination and then hold down F2 when prompted. Setup’s main
menu will appear.
