BIOS Setup Utility

This section describes the text-based BIOS Setup Utility. The BIOS Setup Utility is used
to view and modify configuration settings for the Intel
built-in devices, boot manager, and error manager. You can run the BIOS Setup Utility
with or without an operating system present.

Starting BIOS Setup Utility

To enter the BIOS Setup Utility, complete the following steps:
1. Before you begin either:
a. Start a Remote KVM and CD session with the target compute module through the
Intel
MFSYS25/MFSYS35 User Guide for information on using the Intel
Server Control UI.
b. Or, connect a keyboard and monitor directly to the target compute module.
2. Power on or reboot the compute module using either the Intel
Control UI or by manually pressing the compute module power button.
3. Press the <F2> function key when the below message is displayed during boot time.
Press <F2> to enter SETUP
The message above is displayed after POST completes the memory test either below
the BIOS splash screen if quiet boot is enabled, or on the diagnostic screen if quiet
boot is disabled when you power on the compute module.
When the BIOS Setup Utility is entered, the Main screen is displayed by default. If
serious errors have occurred, the Error Manager screen is displayed instead of the
Main screen.

If You Cannot Access Setup

If you cannot access the BIOS Setup, you might need to clear the CMOS memory. For
instructions on clearing the CMOS, see
