Chapter 6. Using the IBM Setup Utility program The IBM Setup Utility program is stored in the electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) of your computer. The IBM Setup Utility program is used to view and change the configuration settings of your computer, regardless of which operating system you are using. However, the operating system settings might override any similar settings in the IBM Setup Utility program.
Administrator password Setting an administrator password deters unauthorized persons from changing configuration settings. If you are responsible for maintaining the settings of several computers, you might want to set an administrator password. After you set an administrator password, a password prompt is displayed each time you try to access the IBM Setup Utility program. If you type the wrong password, you will see an error message.
10. Move the jumper back to the standard (pins 1 and 2). 11. Replace the cover and connect the power cord. See “Replacing the cover and connecting the cables” on page 26 (small desktop model), “Replacing the cover and connecting the cables” on page 38 (desktop model), or “Replacing the cover and connecting the cables” on page 52 (microtower model). 12.

Appendix A. Changing the battery Your computer has a special type of memory that maintains the date, time, and settings for built-in features, such as parallel-port assignments (configuration). A battery keeps this information active when you turn off the computer. The battery normally requires no charging or maintenance throughout its life; however, no battery lasts forever. If the battery fails, the date, time, and configuration information (including passwords) are lost.
Note: When the computer is turned on for the first time after battery replacement, an error message might be displayed. This is normal after replacing the battery. 9. Turn on the computer and all attached devices. 10. Use the IBM Setup Utility program to set the date and time and any passwords.
Appendix B. Updating System Programs The following contains information about updating system programs (POST/BIOS) and how to recover from a POST/BIOS update failure. System programs System programs are the basic layer of software that is built into your computer. They include the power-on self-test (POST), the basic input/output system (BIOS) code, and the IBM Setup Utility program. POST is a set of tests and procedures that is performed each time you turn on your computer.
