Chapter 3: UEFI SETUP UTILITY

3.1 Introduction

ASRock Interactive UEFI is a blend of system configuration tools, cool sound ef-
fects and stunning visuals. Not only will it make BIOS setup less difficult but also a
lot more amusing. This section explains how to use the UEFI SETUP UTILITY to
configure your system. The UEFI chip on the motherboard stores the UEFI SETUP
UTILITY. You may run the UEFI SETUP UTILITY when you start up the computer.
Please press <F2> or <Delete> during the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) to enter the
UEFI SETUP UTILITY, otherwise, POST will continue with its test routines.
If you wish to enter the UEFI SETUP UTILITY after POST, restart the system by
pressing <Ctl> + <Alt> + <Delete>, or by pressing the reset button on the system
chassis. You may also restart by turning the system off and then back on.
Because the UEFI software is constantly being updated, the
following UEFI setup screens and descriptions are for reference
purpose only, and they may not exactly match what you see on
your screen.
