BIOS Setup Utility

The BIOS Setup Utility is a program that sets up the operating environment for your STYLISTIC Tablet
PC. Your BIOS is set at the factory for normal operating conditions, therefore there is no need to set or
change the BIOS' environment to operate your Tablet PC.
The BIOS Setup Utility configures:
• Device control feature parameters, such as changing I/O addresses and boot devices.
• System Data Security feature parameters, such as passwords.
Entering the BIOS Setup Utility
To enter the setup utility, do the following:
1
Turn on or restart your STYLISTIC Tablet PC.
2
To enter the BIOS Setup Utility, either press the Rotation button (or press the [F2] key if you have an external

with the current settings displayed.
3
Press the [RIGHT ARROW] or [LEFT ARROW] key to scroll through the other setup menus to review or alter
