BIOS SETUP

IB905 User’s Manual

BIOS Introduction

The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your computer

system’s ROM supports Intel processors. The BIOS provides critical

low-level support for a standard device such as disk drives, serial ports

and parallel ports. It also password protection as well as special support

for detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.

BIOS Setup

The BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the system

configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores the

Setup utility. When you turn on the computer, the BIOS is immediately

activated. Pressing the <Del> key immediately allows you to enter the

Setup utility. If you are a little bit late pressing the <Del> key, POST

(Power On Self Test) will continue with its test routines, thus preventing

you from invoking the Setup. If you still wish to enter Setup, restart the

system by pressing the ”Reset” button or simultaneously pressing the

<Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. You can also restart by turning the

system Off and back On again. The following message will appear on

the screen:

Press <DEL> or <F2> to Enter Setup

In general, you press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to

select, the <PgUp> and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help

and <Esc> to quit.

When you enter the Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will appear on

the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup

functions and exit choices.
