Organization of the F10 section:

The top-level tabs in BIOS Setup are: Main (chapters 3 & 6), Security (chapters 4 & 7), Advanced (chapters 5 & 8), and UEFI

Drivers (chapter 9).

Each chapter includes a diagram of the first level menu and tables listing and describing the features in each menu or

submenu. The tables include the following sections:

Feature

This is the name of the feature as it appears in the Setup menu. An underlined feature or one prefaced with a box shows

how it appears in the menu. In a few cases a feature has been renamed from one generation to the next.

Type

Features can be settings, actions, another menu, or display-only settings. Most of the features by far are settings. A setting

is system value that you can modify, using an ‘enable/disable’ check box, a drop-down selection list, or a text entry box.

Description

If the feature is a setting with a drop-down box, then the choices are listed. If the feature is new or has changed its name or

location from the 2014 notebooks or desktops, then the description references or includes its previous name and location.

The notation to describe the location indicates the menus that the user must navigate through to access the feature. For

example: Menu 1 > Menu 2 > Feature X indicates that to access Feature X, the user navigates through Menu 1 to Menu 2.

Default

For features that are settings, this column specifies the factory default setting.

Notes

Some features are not available for all types of models. The notes describe when a feature is Intel only, AMD only, notebook

only, desktop only, or other dependencies.

Some actions require a reboot or physical presence. Physical presence is a menu that requires a human response to validate

that a person is physically present before the action is completed. Actions that require physical presence are generally

security-sensitive changes.
