System Setup Screens and Options

The system setup screens are organized as follows:

The left side of each screen lists options that define the installed hardware in your system.

The right side of each screen displays options that contain settings or values that you can change. Values that are grayed out contain status information reported by the system.

The bottom of each screen displays help information for the option with a cur- rently highlighted field if the system setup program is not in full screen mode.
