Operating System Setup

If you are installing new system software, or are re-configuring your computer for a different system, make sure you
configure the appropriate OS setting in the BIOS before installing a new operating system (Note: If you have
installed the Windows Vista operating system with AHCI mode enabled, DO NOT disable AHCI mode or you will
need to reinstall the Windows Vista OS).
1. Start-up the computer and press F2 to enter the BIOS.
2. Go to the Advanced menu, select Installed O/S and make sure the appropriate operating system is
selected.
3. Go to the Exit menu and select Exit Saving Changes (or press F10) and press Enter to exit the BIOS and
reboot the computer.
