Setup Menus The BIOS Setup utility provides multiple pages to allow you to view and change system settings. Some parameters are configured automatically and cannot be changed. If an administrator password has been set, administrator privileges are required to change most settings. If a value cannot be changed for any reason, the feature's value field is inaccessible. The following table describes the keyboard commands you can use in the BIOS Setup menus. Table 4.
