SMake sure that BIOS is properly configured prior to installing the operating system and its drivers.

SIf you save changes in setup, the next time the blade boots BIOS will configure the system according to the setup selections stored. If those values cause the system boot to fail, reboot and enter setup to get the default values or to change the selections that caused the failure. If the boot fails or is interrupted three times in a row, the default values are then loaded automatically.

In order to navigate in setup, use the arrow keys on the keyblade to highlight items on the menu. All other navigation possibilities are shown at the bottom of the menu.

Additionally, an item−specific help is displayed on the right side of the menu window.
