Updated October 31, 2007 Menus allow configuration of different system functions. Menus preceded by the > symbol have submenus. Use the arrow key to navigate the menus and use the Esc key to exit them. After you select a submenu, press Enter to open it. Saving settings Changes made in the BIOS Setup Utility must be saved so they can take affect on the next system boot. Exceptions are the time and date, which are updated and saved immediately. To save changes, select Save & Exit Setup on the main menu, or press F10 at any time. To exit Setup without saving changes, select Exit Without Saving or press Esc on the main menu. You can save your settings to a file using the CMOS Save Utility and then copy them to other units using the CMOS Restore Utility. These utilities can be downloaded from the IBM Retail Store Solutions Web site at www.ibm.com/ solutions/retail/store Boot device order The boot device order is a setting that you can configure. This function controls the devices from which the system can be booted and the order in which they are started. This function is located on the Advanced BIOS Features menu as First Boot Device, Second Boot Device, and Third Boot Device. Navigate to each item and press Enter to see a list of available boot devices. The system default is: v First Boot Device = USB-HDD v Second Boot Device = HDD-0 v Third Boot Device = LAN With this setting, the system attempts to boot first from a diskette in a USB diskette drive, then from hard disk drive 0, then from the LAN. If no items are bootable, the system will repeatedly try the boot list in order until successful. Restoring CMOS default settings To clear your CMOS settings and restore the default settings, follow these steps: Note: Be sure to record your customized settings to reset them later. 1. Power off the system unit and disconnect the AC power cord. 2. Follow the instructions in "Cover removal procedures" on page 45 to remove the covers and in "Top plate removal" on page 49 to remove the top plate. 100 SurePOS 700 Series: SurePOS 700-721/741/781, 722/742/782 Planning, Installation, and Operation Guide
