Using the BIOS Setup Utility
Your UMPC has a BIOS setup utility which allows you to configure
important system settings, including settings for various optional
functions of the computer. This chapter explains how to use the
BIOS setup utility.
BIOS Setup Menu
The BIOS setup Utility allows you to configure your computer's
basic settings. When you turn your computer on, the system reads
this information to initialize the hardware so that it can operate
correctly. Use the BIOS setup utility to change your computer's
start-up configuration. For example, you can change the security
and power management routines of your system.
Starting the BIOS Setup Utility
You can only enter the BIOS setup utility as the computer is
booting, that is between the time you turn on the computer and
before the Windows interface appears. If your computer is already
on, shut down your computer completely (power off) and restart it
and then press the Fn+F2 key to enter the setup utility.
