Setup and Diagnostic Utilities

Using Computer Setup

Computer Setup is a preinstalled, ROM-based, utility which can be used even when the operating system is not working or will not load. If the operating system is working, the notebook will restart the operating system after you exit Computer Setup.

Because Computer Setup is not Windows based, it does not support the pointing devices on your notebook. Instead, you point and select with the keys on your notebook keyboard.

An external keyboard connected by USB can be used in Computer Setup only if USB legacy support is enabled. For more information about USB, refer on this CD to the Hardware Guide, “External Device Connections” section.

Instructions for using keys to set preferences in Computer Setup are included in the step-by-step Computer Setup procedures provided throughout your notebook guides. These procedures can be used by all users.

The menu tables later in this section provide an overview of Computer Setup options that may be helpful to advanced users who prefer to select preferences without following step-by-step procedures.

Computer Setup Procedures

The information and settings in Computer Setup are accessed from the File, Security, Tools, and Advanced menus:
