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 system and configures it to the
system’s factory default settings.
This chapter tells you how to use the BIOS Setup and System Recovery.
