Using BIOS Setup
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.
