Flexible boot control

This feature enables you to do the following:
• Add Boot Options
◦ Browse all FAT16 and FAT32 file systems.
◦ Select an X64 UEFI application with an .EFI extension to add as a new UEFI boot option, such as an
OS boot loader or other UEFI application.
The new boot option is appended to the boot order list. When you select a file, you are prompted to
enter the boot option description (which is then displayed in the Boot menu), as well as any optional
data to be passed to an .EFI application.
• Boot to System Utilities
After pre-POST, the boot options screen appears. During this time, you can access the UEFI System
Utilities by pressing the F9 key.
• Choose between supported modes: Legacy BIOS Boot Mode or UEFI Boot Mode
IMPORTANT:
If the default boot mode settings are different than the user defined settings, the system may not boot
the OS installation if the defaults are restored. To avoid this issue, use the User Defined Defaults
feature in UEFI System Utilities to override the factory default settings.

Restoring and customizing configuration settings

You can reset all configuration settings to the factory default settings, or you can restore system default
configuration settings, which are used instead of the factory default settings.
