4.On the Boot Settings Configuration screen, there are several options that you can enable or disable:

■Quick Boot – This option is disabled by default. If you enable this, the BIOS skips certain tests while booting, such as the extensive memory test. This decreases the time it takes for the system to boot.

■Quiet Boot – This option is disabled by default. If you enable this, the Sun Microsystems logo is displayed instead of POST codes.

■Add On ROM Display Mode – This option is set to Force BIOS by default. This option has effect only if you have also enabled the Quiet Boot option, but it controls whether output from the Option ROM is displayed. The two settings for this option are as follows:

■Force BIOS – Remove the Sun logo and display Option ROM output.

■Keep Current – Do not remove the Sun logo. The Option ROM output is not displayed.
