Starting And Using The Configuration/Setup Utility Program - IBM Types 2193 User Manual

Starting and using the Configuration/Setup Utility
program
The Configuration/Setup Utility program is started automatically when a
hardware configuration change is detected during POST.
To start the Configuration/Setup Utility program:
1. Turn on your computer. If your computer is already on when you start
this procedure, you must shut down the operating system, turn off the
computer, wait a few seconds until all in-use lights go off, and restart
the computer. (Do not use Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart the computer.)
2. When the Configuration/Setup Utility program prompt appears in the
lower-left corner of the screen during startup, press F1. (This prompt
appears on the screen for only a few seconds. You must press F1
quickly.)
3. If you have not set an administrator password, the Configuration/Setup
Utility program menu appears on the screen. If you have set an
administrator password, the Configuration/Setup Utility program
menu will not appear until you type your administrator password and
press Enter. (Entering the power-on password now will allow you to
view configuration information but you can not change it.) See "Using
passwords" on page 7 for more information.
Note: The Configuration/Setup Utility program menu will display
when new system hardware has been added and one or more of
the following statements are true:
The menu you see on your computer might look slightly different from the
menu shown here, but it will operate the same way.
Enhanced POST is in effect.
Power-on password is enabled.
Administrator password is enabled.
