Computer Setup (F10) This section contains the following information to help you use Computer Setup. • "BIOS ROM" on page 45 • "Using Computer Setup (F10)" on page 46 • "Computer Setup Menu" on page 47 The Computer Setup (F10) utilities enable you to: • Change current settings from the factory default settings and set, view, change, or verify the system configuration, including settings for processor, graphics, memory, audio, storage, communications, and input devices. • Determine if all of the devices installed on the workstation are recognized by the system and functioning properly. • Determine information about the operating environment of the workstation. • Solve system configuration errors detected but not automatically fixed during the Power-On Self-Test (POST). • Establish and manage passwords and other security features. • Establish and manage energy-saving timeouts (not supported for Linux platforms). • Modify or restore factory default settings. • Set the system date and time. • Modify the boot order of bootable devices, such as hard drives, diskette drives, optical drives, or LS120 drives. • Configure the boot priority of SATA and SCSI hard drive controllers. • Enable Quick Boot, which is faster than Full Boot but does not run all of the diagnostic tests run during a Full Boot. You can set your system to: • always Quick Boot (default) • periodically Full Boot (from every 1 to 30 days) • always Full Boot • Enable or disable Network Server Mode, which enables the workstation to boot the operating system when the power-on password is enabled with or without a keyboard or mouse attached. When attached to the system, the keyboard and mouse remain locked until the power-on password is entered. • Select POST Messages Enabled or Disabled to change the display status of POST messages. POST Messages Disabled suppresses most POST messages, such as memory count, product name, and other non-error text messages. If a POST error occurs, the error is displayed regardless of the mode selected. To manually switch to POST Messages Enabled during POST, press any key (except F1 through F12). • Establish an Ownership Tag, the text of which is displayed each time the system is turned on or restarted. • Enter the Asset Tag or property identification number assigned by your company to this workstation. • Enable power-on password prompting during system restarts (warm boots) as well as during power-on. • Secure the integrated I/O functionality, including the serial, USB, or parallel ports, audio, or embedded NIC, so that the I/O functionality cannot be used until they are unsecured. • Enable or disable removable media boot ability. • Enable or disable removable media write ability (when supported by hardware). • Replicate your system setup by saving system configuration information on diskette and restoring it on one or more workstations. 44 System Management
