When you add or remove a component or change a security feature, you must
reconfigure the computer to recognize these changes. If the system
configuration is incorrect, your computer may not work properly and you may
receive error messages on the screen. Setting the system board switches is part
of the reconfiguration process, along with running the System Configuration
Utility.
