NOTE: If you do not press F10 at the appropriate time, you must restart the computer and again
press F10 when the monitor light turns green to access the utility.
3. Select your language from the list and press Enter.
4. A choice of five headings appears in the Computer Setup Utilities menu: File, Storage, Security,

5. Use the arrow (left and right) keys to select the appropriate heading. Use the arrow (up and down)
keys to select the option you want, then press Enter. To return to the Computer Setup Utilities
menu, press Esc.
6. To apply and save changes, select File > Save Changes and Exit.
●
If you have made changes that you do not want applied, select Ignore Changes and Exit.
