To select a category on the list of system board options, press the up- or down-arrow key to highlight the category and press <Enter>. A pop-up menu appears, listing the options for that category. To select an option, press the up- or down-arrow key to highlight the option and press <Enter>.

NOTES: Several system board categories allow you to edit such resources as memory address, I/O ports, interrupt requests (IRQ), and direct memory access (DMA) chan- nels. It may be necessary to edit these resources to resolve a configuration conflict. To view the resource screen for any device, highlight the option and press <F6>.

The edit resources feature is intended for users who are technically knowledgeable. Do not change resource settings from their defaults if you do not understand how such a change will affect system performance.

While in the Step 3: View or Edit Details menu, you can press <F7> to enter the Advanced menu. See “Advanced Menu” found later in this chapter for more information.

When you have finished making changes, save the new system configuration informa- tion and exit the utility as follows:

1.Press <F10>, and select Step 5: Save and Exit from the Steps in Configuring Your Computer menu.

2.Select Save the Configuration and Restart the Computer from the menu that appears.
