BIOS utility

The BIOS utility is a hardware configuration program built into your computer's Basic Input/Output System (BIOS). Since most computers are already properly configured and optimized, there is no need to run this utility. However, if you encounter configuration problems and get the "Run Setup" message, you will need to run this utility.

Note: Before you run BIOS, make sure that you have saved all open files. The computer reboots immediately after you exit Setup.

To run the BIOS utility, press the Del key on your keyboard during computer boot up.

1Make sure that the system is turned on.
