Chapter 3 BIOS Utility Most systems are already configured by the manufacturer or the dealer. There is no need to run Setup when starting the computer unless you get a Run Setup message. The Setup program loads configuration values into the battery-backed nonvolatile memory called CMOS RAM. This memory area is not part of the system RAM. If you repeatedly receive Run Setup messages, the battery may be bad. In this case, the system cannot retain configuration values in CMOS. Ask a qualified technician for assistance. 3.1 Entering Setup To enter Setup, press the key combination ++. You must press + + while the system is booting. This key combination does not work any other time. The BIOS Utility main menu then appears: Chapter 3 - BIOS Utility 3-1
