Using the BIOS Setup Utility

Configuring Your System
The BIOS Setup Utility, like the RCU, is used to change
system configuration parameters. This utility has some
unique parameters and many parameters that are also
configurable with the RCU. The utility is resident in
the system FLASH memory and does not require a
diskette or an operating system present to run.
However, parameters set with the BIOS Setup Utility
that can also be set with the RCU, will be overwritten
by the RCU the next time the RCU is run.
You access the BIOS Setup utility when you turn on or
reboot your system. To run the BIOS Setup Utility,
perform the following procedure:
1. Power-on or reboot the system. BIOS displays the
following:
Press <F2> to enter SETUP
2. Press F2. The BIOS Setup Utility starts and the
