Setup Configuration Utility
3-1 Introduction
This chapter tells you how to configure your system using the SCU (Setup
Configuration Utility).
The SCU allows you to enter the system configuration information. This
information is needed by the system to identify the type of devices installed and
to set up special features. Typical configuration information includes the date
and time, the type of disk drives, and the amount of memory; special features
include Power Saving and Security.
The configuration information is stored in a special kind of memory called
CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) RAM. A RTC backup
battery backs up CMOS RAM data.
You may need to run SCU when:
? You see an error message on the screen requesting you to run
SETUP.
? You change factory default settings for some special features.
? You want to modify some specific setting to optimize system
performance.
? You want to release resouce if when you inadequate resoues
if conflict, then you reference section 3-2.6 How to Release Resouce
from SCU.
