Setup and Diagnostic Utilities

Using Computer Setup

Computer Setup is a preinstalled, ROM-based utility that can be
used even when the operating system is not working or will not
load. If the operating system is working, the notebook will restart
the operating system after you exit Computer Setup.
Because Computer Setup is a non-Windows utility, it does not
support the pointing devices on your notebook. When using
Computer Setup, make selections and navigate with the keys on
your notebook keyboard instead of a pointing device.
✎
An external keyboard connected by USB can be used in
Computer Setup only if USB legacy support is enabled. For more
information about USB, refer on this CD to the Hardware Guide
"External Device Connections" chapter.
The menu tables later in this section provide an overview of
Computer Setup options.
