Even if you are not prompted to use the Setup program, you can change the conguration of your computer in the future. For example, you can enable the security password feature or change the power management settings. This requires you to recongure your system using the BIOS Setup program so that the computer can recognize these changes and record them in the CMOS RAM of the SPI chip. The SPI chip on the motherboard stores the Setup utility . When you start up the computer , the system provides you with the opportunity to run this program. Press <Del> during the Power-On Self-T est (POST) to enter the Setup utility; otherwise, POST continues with its test routines. If you wish to enter Setup after POST , reboot the system by doing any of the following procedures: • Restart using the OS standard shut-down procedure. • Press <Ctrl> <Alt> <Del> simultaneously . • Press the reset button on the system chassis. • Press the power button to turn the system off then back on. Using the power button, reset button, or the <Ctrl> <Alt> <Del> keys to force reset from a running operating system can cause damage to your data or system. We recommend to always shut-down the system properly from the operating system. The Setup progr am is desig ned to ma ke it as ea sy to use as possi ble.
