Secure Boot
Policy Summary
Specifies the list of certificates and hashes that secure boot uses to authenticate
images.
Miscellaneous Settings details
The Miscellaneous Settings screen details are explained as follows:
System Time Enables you to set the time on the system.
System Date Enables you to set the date on the system.
Asset Tag Specifies the asset tag and enables you to modify it for security and tracking
purposes.
Keyboard
NumLock
Enables you to set whether the system boots with the NumLock enabled or
disabled. This option is set to On by default.
NOTE: This option does not apply to 84-key keyboards.
F1/F2 Prompt on
Error
Enables or disables the F1/F2 prompt on error. This option is set to Enabled by
default. The F1/F2 prompt also includes keyboard errors.
Load Legacy
Video Option
ROM
Enables you to determine whether the system BIOS loads the legacy video (INT
10H) option ROM from the video controller. Selecting Enabled in the operating
system does not support UEFI video output standards. This field is available only for
UEFI boot mode. You cannot set the option to Enabled if UEFI Secure Boot mode
is enabled.
In-System
Characterization
Enables or disables In-System Characterization. This option is set to Disabled by
default. The two other options are Enabled and Enabled - No Reboot.
NOTE: The default setting for In-System Characterization is subject to change
in future BIOS releases.
When enabled, In-System Characterization (ISC) executes during POST upon
detecting relevant change(s) in system configuration to optimize system power and
performance. ISC takes about 20 seconds to execute, and system reset is needed
for ISC results to be applied. The Enabled - No Reboot option executes ISC and
continues without applying ISC results until the next time system reset occurs. The
Enabled option executes ISC and forces an immediate system reset so that ISC
results can be applied. It takes the system longer to be ready due to the forced
system reset. When disabled, ISC does not execute.
