Press ENTER to run the utility to select and update BIOS. This utility doesn't support :

1.NTFS format

Express Gate [Enabled]

Allows you to enable or disable the Express Gate feature. Set this item to [Enabled] to activate the Express Gate feature. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

Reset User Data [No]

Allows you to clear Express Gate’s user data.

Configuration options: [No] [Reset]

When setting this item to [Reset], make sure to save the setting to the BIOS so that the user data will be cleared the next time you enter the Express Gate. User data includes the Express Gate’s settings as well as any personal information stored by the web browser (bookmarks, cookies, browsing history, etc.). This is useful in the rare case where corrupt settings prevent the Express Gate environment from launching properly.

The first time wizard will run again when you enter the Express Gate environment after clearing its settings.

Timeout [10]

Sets the amount of time the system waits at the Express Gate’s first screen before defaulting to starting Windows or other installed OS. Choosing [Choose] means waiting indefinitely at the first screen for user action.

Configuration options: [1 second] ~ [30 seconds]

The time length is adjusted by typing the desired values using the numeric keypad and press the <Enter> key.

Express Gate Updater

New versions of the Express Gate software will be released regularly, adding refinements or new applications.
