4 Using BIOS Setup Utility
The Fieldbook has a BIOS setup utility which allows you to configure important system settings, including settings for
the Boot and AP menus as well as the device's basic settings--the system reads the basic settings during initialization
in order to boot correctly.
This section explains the information contained in the Setup program and tells you how to modify the settings according
to your system configuration.
Misconfiguration can lead to data loss or system malfunction. Only change BIOS settings if you
know of what you are doing. If you are unsure, please contact your system administrator or the
Logic Instrument support.
