VGA Configuration

Displayed only if there is an add-in video card in the system. Allows you to specify which VGA

 

controller will be the “boot” or primary VGA controller.

 

 

AMT Configuration

Allows you to set:

 

AMT (enable/disable). Allows you to enable or disable functions of the embedded

 

Management Engine (ME) such as Active Management Technology (AMT). If set to disable, the

 

Management Engine is set to a temporarily disabled state and will not provide functions

 

beyond necessary system configuration. Default is enabled.

 

Unconfigure AMT/ME (enable/disable). Allows you to unconfigure any provisioned

 

management settings for AMT. The AMT settings are restored to factory defaults. This feature

 

should be used with caution as AMT will not be able to provide any set AMT management

 

functions once unconfigured. Default is disabled.

 

Hide Unconfigure ME Confirmation Prompt (enable/disable). Allows you to set the system to

 

not display the confirmation to unconfigure ME.

 

Watchdog Timer (enable/disable). Allows you to set amount of time for a operating system

 

and BIOS watchdog alert to be sent if the timers are not deactivated. BIOS watchdog is

 

deactivated by BIOS and would indicate that a halt occurred during execution if the alert is

 

sent to the management console. An operating system alert is deactivated by the operating

 

system image and would indicate that a hang occurred during its initialization. Default is

 

enabled.

 

 

Recovering the Configuration Settings

This method of recovery requires that you first perform the Save to Removable Media command with the Computer Setup (F10) Utility before Restore is needed. (See Computer Setup—File

on page 12 in the Computer Setup—File table.)

NOTE: It is recommended that you save any modified computer configuration settings to a USB flash media device and save the device for possible future use.

To restore the configuration, insert the USB flash media device with the saved configuration and perform the Restore from Removable Media command with the Computer Setup (F10) Utility. (See Computer Setup—File on page 12 in the Computer Setup—File table.)
