2.When the logo screen appears, or you hear a series of beeps, release the F1 key.

3.If you are prompted for a password, type your current password.

4.From the Setup Utility main menu, use the right-arrow key to select Startup.

5.Arrange the startup sequence to meet your needs.

6.Press the Esc key twice to go to the Setup Utility exit menu.

7.Use the down-arrow key to select Save and exit the Setup Utility, then press Enter.

8.When the Setup Confirmation window appears, press Enter.

9.The computer restarts.

Note: If you are using an external device, you first must turn off your computer before connecting the external device.

For more information on Setup Utility, see Chapter 5, “Using the Setup Utility,” on page 41.

Solving recovery problems

If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment, you can:

vUse your rescue media (CD, DVD, or USB hard disk) to start the Rescue and Recovery workspace. See “Creating and using rescue media” on page 36 for details.

vUse a Recovery Repair diskette to repair the Rescue and Recovery workspace or repair a file needed to enter the Windows environment. See “Creating and using a Recovery Repair diskette” on page 37 for details.

vUse a set of Product Recovery discs if your intent is to restore the hard disk to its original factory contents. See “Creating and using the Product Recovery disc” on page 33.

It is important to create a Recovery Repair diskette, rescue media, and a set of Product Recovery discs as soon as possible and store them in a safe place as a precautionary measure.

If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment from rescue media, a Recovery Repair diskette, or a set of Product Recovery CDs, you might not have the rescue device, CD drive, DVD drive, or USB hard disk drive defined as a startup device in the BIOS startup sequence. See “Setting a rescue device in the startup sequence” for more information.
