Using the System Setup Program

Overview

NOTE: Your operating system may automatically configure most of the options available in system setup,
thus overriding options that you set through system setup. (An exception is the External Hot Key option,
which you can disable or enable only through system setup.) For more information on configuring
features for your operating system, see the Help and Support Center.

The system setup screens display the current setup information and settings for your computer,

such as:

• System configuration

• Boot order

• Boot (start-up) configuration
