7 BIOS Setup
This chapter introduces how to configure BIOS. All operations described in this section
are limited to experienced operators or administrators with proper system maintenance
qualifications.
BIOS is the basic input/output system, which is the basic program code loaded in the
motherboard chipset. It stores the computer's most important input/output program,
POST program and system auto-boot program. It provides the most basic and most direct
hardware settings and control, detects the boot device, boots the system or other preboot
execution environment.
NX5460M5 server is developed on the basis of Insyde Codebase, supporting Legacy and UEFI
operating environments, with abundant in-band and out-of-band configuration functions
and scalability. It can meet the customization needs of different customers.
Notes:
1. We recommend that you record the original BIOS settings before you modify them so it

boot, caused by changing the BIOS settings, users can try to recover it through the Clear
CMOS operation.
