Intel® Server Board S3420GP TPS BIOS User Interface 6. BIOS User Interface 6.1 Logo/Diagnostic Screen The logo/Diagnostic Screen displays in one of two forms:  If Quiet Boot is enabled in the BIOS setup, a logo splash screen displays. By default, Quiet Boot is enabled in the BIOS setup. If the logo displays during POST, press to hide the logo and display the diagnostic screen.  If a logo is not present in the flash ROM or if Quiet Boot is disabled in the system configuration, the summary and diagnostic screen displays. The diagnostic screen displays the following information:  BIOS ID  Platform name  Total memory detected (Total size of all installed DDR3 DIMMs)  Processor information (Intel branded string, speed, and number of physical processor identified)  Keyboards detected (if plugged in)  Mouse devices detected (if plugged in) 6.2 BIOS Boot Popup Menu The BIOS Boot Specification (BBS) provides for a Boot Popup Menu invoked by pressing the key during POST. The BBS popup menu displays all available boot devices. The list order in the popup menu is not the same as the boot order in the BIOS setup; it simply lists the bootable devices from which the system can be booted. When a User Password or Administrator Password is active in Setup, the password is to access the Boot Popup Menu. 6.3 BIOS Setup utility The BIOS setup utility is a text-based utility that allows the user to configure the system and view current settings and environment information for the platform devices. The Setup utility controls the platform's built-in devices, boot manager, and error manager. The BIOS setup interface consists of a number of pages or screens. Each page contains information or links to other pages. The advanced tab in Setup displays a list of general categories as links. These links lead to pages containing a specific category's configuration. The following sections describe the look and behavior for platform setup. Revision 2.4 47 Intel order number E65697-010
