SuperServer E300-9A-4CN10P User's Manual

5.1 Introduction

This chapter describes the AMI BIOS setup utility for the A2SDV-4C-LN10PF. The AMI ROM
BIOS is stored in a Flash EEPROM and can be easily updated. This chapter describes the
basic navigation of the AMI BIOS utility setup screens.
Note: For AMI BIOS Recovery, please refer to the UEFI BIOS Recovery Instructions in
Appendix D.

Starting BIOS Setup Utility

To enter the BIOS Setup Utility, hit the <Delete> key while the system is booting up. (In
most cases, the <Delete> key is used to invoke the BIOS setup screen. There are a few
cases when other keys are used, such as <F1>, <F2>, etc.) Each main BIOS menu option
is described in this manual.
The Main BIOS screen has two main frames. The left frame displays all the options that can
be configured. "Grayed-out" options cannot be configured. The right frame displays the key
legend. Above the key legend is an area reserved for a text message. When an option is
selected in the left frame, it is highlighted in white. Often a text message will accompany it.
(Note that BIOS has default text messages built in. We retain the option to include, omit, or
change any of these text messages.) Settings printed in Bold are the default values.
A " " indicates a submenu. Highlighting such an item and pressing the <Enter> key will
open the list of settings within that submenu.
