Using the System Setup Program
Overview
NOTE: Your operating system may automatically configure most of the options available in system setup,
thus overriding options that you set through system setup. (An exception is the External Hot Key option,
which you can disable or enable only through system setup.) For more information on configuring
features for your operating system, see the Windows Help and Support Center. To access help, see
page 10.
The system setup screens display the current setup information and settings for your computer,
such as:
System configuration
Boot order
Boot (start-up) configuration and docking-device configuration settings
Basic device-configuration settings
System security and hard-drive password settings
