Display System Information (fn+esc)

The fn+esc hotkey displays information about system hardware components and software version numbers.

»To clear the display, press esc.

In the fn+esc display, the version of the system BIOS (basic input-output system) is displayed as the BIOS date. On some notebook models, the BIOS date is displayed in decimal format. The BIOS date is sometimes called the system ROM version number. For information about updating the system ROM, refer to the “Software Updates” section.

Keypads

You can use the embedded numeric keypad in the notebook keyboard or connect an optional external numeric keypad. The embedded numeric keypad cannot be used while an external keypad is connected to the notebook.
