NOTE: Depending on your computer, BIOS version, and installed devices, the items listed in this section may not
appear, or may not appear exactly as listed.

System

System Info Lists system information such as the computer name, the BIOS version
number and date, system tags, and other system-specific information.
NOTE: The system name listed in the BIOS may not appear exactly as the name
that appears on the computer or in the computer’s documentation.
CPU Info Identifies whether the computer’s processor supports Hyper-Threading and
lists the processor bus speed, processor ID, clock speed, and L2 cache.
Memory Info Indicates the amount of installed memory, memory speed, channel mode
(dual or single), and type of memory installed.
Date/Time Displays current date and time settings.
Boot Sequence The computer attempts to boot from the sequence of devices specified in this
list.
NOTE: If you insert a boot device and restart the computer, the device appears in
the system setup menu. To boot from a USB memory device, select the USB
device and move it so that it becomes the first device in the list.

Drives

Diskette Drive Identifies and defines the floppy drive attached to the FLOPPY connector on
the system board as Off, USB, Internal, or Read Only.
Drives 0 through 1 Identifies the drives attached to the SATA connectors on the system board,
and lists the capacity for the drives.
SATA Operation Identifies and defines the SATA modes. You can set the SATA controller to
AHCI or ATA mode.

Onboard Devices

NIC Controller You can set the NIC to On (default), Off, or On w/PXE. When the On
w/PXE setting is active (available only for the future boot process), the
computer prompts the user to press <Ctrl><Alt><b>. Pressing this key
combination causes a menu to display that allows you to select a method for
booting from a network server. If a boot routine is not available from the
network server, the computer attempts to boot from the next device in the
boot sequence list.
