Using BIOS Setup and
System Recovery
BIOS Setup Utility is a program for configuring the BIOS (Basic Input/ Output
System) settings of the computer. BIOS is a layer of software, called
firmware, that translates instructions from other layers of software into
instructions that the computer hardware can understand. The BIOS
settings are needed by your computer to identify the types of installed
devices and establish special features.
System Recovery reinstalls Windows to your computer and restores it to the
factory default status.
This chapter tells you how to use the BIOS Setup and System Recovery.
