Description
Allows you to set:
• POST mode (QuickBoot, FullBoot, or
FullBoot every 1-30 days).
• POST messages (enable/disable).
• Safe POST (enable/disable). Enabling
this feature allows the ROM to monitor
add-in cards during boot. If an add-in card
does not work or initialize correctly, then
on the next boot all cards will be skipped
during POST. (This feature is supported
on select models only.)
• F9 prompt (enable/disable). Enabling this
feature will display the text "F9 = Boot
Menu" during POST. Disabling this feature
prevents the text from being displayed.
However, pressing the F9 key will still
access the Boot Menu screen.
• F10 prompt (enable/disable). Enabling this
feature will display the text "F10 = Setup"
during POST. Disabling this feature
prevents the text from being displayed.
However, pressing the F10 key will still
access the Setup screen.
• F12 prompt (enable/disable). Enabling
this feature will display the text
"F12 = Network Service Boot" during
POST. Disabling this feature prevents the
text from being displayed. However,
pressing the F12 key will still force the
system to attempt booting from the
network.
