POST Behavior

Numlock LED	Allows you to enable or disable the Numlock feature when your computer starts. This
	option is enabled by default.

	This option is enabled by default.
POST Hotkeys	Allows you to specify the function keys to display on the screen when the computer
	starts.
	Enable F12 — Boot menu (enabled by default)
Fast Boot	This option can speed up the boot process by bypassing some compatibility steps:
	• Minimal — The system boots quickly, unless the BIOS has been updated,
	memory changed, or the previous POST did not complete.
	• Thorough — The system does not skip any steps in the boot process.
	• Auto — This allows the operating system to control this setting (this works only
	when the operating system supports Simple Boot Flag).
	This option is set to Thorough by default.

Virtualization Support

Virtualization	This option specifies whether a Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) can utilize the
	additional hardware capabilities provided by Intel® Virtualization Technology. Enable
	Intel Virtualization Technology - This option is disabled by default.
VT for Direct I/O	Enables or disables the Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) from utilizing the additional
	hardware capabilities provided by Intel® Virtualization technology for direct I/O. Enable
	Intel Virtualization Technology for Direct I/O - This option is disabled by default.

Maintenance

Service Tag	Displays the Service Tag of your computer.
Asset Tag	Allows you to create a system asset tag if an asset tag is not already set. This option is
	not set by default.
SERR Messages	Controls the SERR message mechanism. This option is not set by default. Some
	graphics cards require that the SERR message mechanism be disabled.

	• Static IP
	• DNS (enabled by default)
	NOTE: This field is only relevant when the "Integrated NIC" control in the "System

	software communicates. The default IP address is 255.255.255.255.
