users only
		•	To disable Wake on LAN during the off state (S5), use the arrow
			(left and right) keys to select the Advanced > Device Options
			menu and set the S5 Wake on Lan feature to “Disable.” This
			obtains the lowest power consumption available on the computer
			during S5. It does not affect the ability of the computer to Wake on
			LAN from suspend or hibernation, but will prevent it from waking
			from S5 via the network. It does not affect operation of the network
			connection while the computer is on.
		•	If a network connection is not required, completely disable the
			network controller (NIC) by using the arrow (left and right) keys to
			select the Security > Device Security menu. Set the Network
			Controller option to “Device Hidden.” This prevents the network

controller from being used by the operating system and reduces the power used by the computer in S5.

• Processor cache (enable/disable).

• Unique Sleep State Blink Patterns. Allows you to choose an LED blink pattern that uniquely identifies each sleep state.

• Integrated Video (enable/disable) Allows you to use integrated video and PCI Up Solution video at the same time (available on select models only).

✎Inserting a PCI or PCI Express video card automatically disables Integrated Video. When PCI Express video is on, Integrated Video must remain disabled.

•Monitor Tracking (enable/disable). Allows ROM to save monitor asset information.

Allows you to set:

• NIC PXE Option ROM Download (enable/disable). The BIOS

	contains an embedded NIC option ROM to allow the unit to
	boot through the network to a PXE server. This is typically used
	to download a corporate image to a hard drive. The NIC
	option ROM takes up memory space below 1MB commonly
	referred to as DOS Compatibility Hole (DCH) space. This space
	is limited. This F10 option will allow users to disable the
	downloading of this embedded NIC option ROM thus giving
	more DCH space for additional PCI cards which may need
	option ROM space. The default will be to have the NIC option
	ROM enabled.
PCI VGA	Displayed only if there are multiple PCI video adapters in the
Configuration	system. Allows you to specify which VGA controller will be the
	“boot” or primary VGA controller.

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