3.Using the BIOS Setup Program

This chapter tells how to use the Setup program that is built into the BIOS. The Setup

program makes it possible to change configuration information (such as the types of

peripherals that are installed) and the boot-up sequence for the system. The Setup

information is stored in CMOS random access memory (RAM) and is backed up by a

battery when power is off.

Record the Setup Configuration

To make sure you have a reference to the Setup values for your system, we

recommend you to write down the current settings and keep this record up-to-date.
