Launch Manager

The Acer Launch Manager allows you to set the programmable launch keys, including the default mail and Web browswer keys, as well as the Empowering and P keys. The Wireless and Bluetooth keys cannot be set by users. See “Launch keys” on page 21 for more information.

You can access the Launch Manager by clicking on Start, All Programs, and then Launch Manager to start the application.

BIOS Utility

The BIOS Utility is a hardware configuration program built into your computer’s Basic Input/Output System (BIOS).

Your computer is already properly configured and optimized, and you do not need to run this utility. However, if you encounter configura- tion problems, you may need to run it.

To activate the BIOS Utility, press F2 during the Power-On Self Test (POST) while the Aspire logo is being displayed.
