Using the BIOS Utility

3The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration information has been erased.

Every computer with a motherboard includes a special chip referred to as the BIOS or ROM BIOS (Read Only Memory Basic Input/Output System). The BIOS includes instructions to interact with the computer hardware. It also includes a test which ensures that the computer meets requirements to boot up properly. If the computer encounters an error during the test, you either hear a combination of beeps or see an error message on the screen.

Error messages can be fatal or non-fatal. Generally, the system can continue the boot up sequence with a non-fatal error. These are usually displayed on the screen along with the following instructions:

Press <F1> to RESUME

Write down the error message and press the F1 key to continue booting the system. If you want to change BIOS settings, refer to the following sections.
