BIOS Utilities
Chapter 5: BIOS Utilities
Overview
This chapter is about the computer's built-in software.
Your computer comes with built-in BIOS (Basic Input Output Sys-
5
tem) which is an essential set of software routines stored on a chip n
tour computer. These routines serve to describe your computer's
hardware to your chosen operating system, and provides an interface
between the two.
The BIOS includes the POST (Power On Self Test) and the SCU
(System Configuration Utility). The POST performs diagnostic
procedures at startup, the SCU allows you to configure your comput-
er.
There is one general rule: Don't make any changes unless you are
sure of what you are doing. Many of the settings are required by the
system, and changing them could cause it to become unstable or
worse. If you have any doubts, consult your service representative.
