• Remote wakeup boot source (remote server/local hard drive).

• UUID (Universal Unique Identifier) (enable/disable). Every Compaq computer has a unique identifier (serial number, date/time of manufacture, etc). Enabling this feature allows software (drivers, network, etc.) to read the computer’s unique number.

• POST Delay (in seconds) (enable/disable). Enabling this feature will add a user specified delay to the POST process. This delay is sometimes needed for hard disks on some PCI cards that spin up very slowly; so slowly that they are not ready to boot by the time POST is finished.

Support for Computer Setup options may vary depending on your specific hardware configuration.
