Power-On Options

Allows you to set:

 

POST mode (QuickBoot, FullBoot, or FullBoot every 1–30 days).

 

POST messages (enable/disable).

 

MEBx Setup Prompt (enable/disable or hidden/displayed). Enabling this feature displays the

 

text CTRL+P = MEBx during POST. Disabling this feature prevents the text from being

 

displayed. However, pressing Ctrl+P still accesses the ME BIOS Extension Setup Utility, which

 

is used to configure manageability settings.

 

F9 prompt (enable/disable or hidden/displayed). Enabling this feature will display the text F9 =

 

Boot Menu during POST. Disabling this feature prevents the text from being displayed.

 

However, pressing F9 will still access the Shortcut Boot [Order] Menu screen. See

 

Storage > Boot Order for more information.

 

F10 prompt (enable/disable or hidden/displayed). Enabling this feature will display the text

 

F10 = Setup during POST. Disabling this feature prevents the text from being displayed.

 

However, pressing F10 will still access the Setup screen.

 

F11 prompt (hidden/displayed). Setting this feature to displayed will display the text

 

F11 = Recovery during POST. Hiding this feature prevents the text from being displayed.

 

However, pressing F11 will still attempt to boot to the HP Backup and Recovery partition.

 

See Factory Recovery Boot Support for more information.

 

F12 prompt (enable/disable or hidden/displayed). Enabling this feature will display the text

 

F12 = Network during POST. Disabling this feature prevents the text from being displayed.

 

However, pressing F12 will still force the system to attempt booting from the network.

 

Factory Recovery Boot Support (enable/disable). Enabling this feature will cause an additional

 

prompt, F11 = Recovery, to be displayed during POST on systems with HP Backup and

 

Recovery software installed and configured with a recovery partition on the boot hard drive.

 

Pressing F11 causes the system to boot to the recovery partition and launch HP Backup and

 

Recovery. The F11 = Recovery prompt can be hidden with the F11 prompt (hidden/displayed)

 

option (see above).

 

Option ROM prompt (enable/disable) Enabling this feature will cause the system to display a

 

message before loading option ROMs. (This feature is supported on some models only.)
