Chapter 4. Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program The Configuration/Setup Utility program is stored in the electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) of your computer. You can use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to view and change the configuration settings of your computer, regardless of which operating system you are using. However, the settings you select in your operating system might override any similar settings in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. Starting and using the Configuration/Setup Utility program The Configuration/Setup Utility program might start automatically when POST detects that newly installed or removed hardware is not reflected in your current configuration. A 162 POST message is displayed. See "Power-on self-test (POST)" on page 73. To start the Configuration/Setup Utility program: 1. Press and hold down F1 and turn on the computer. If your computer is already on when you start this procedure, you must shut down the operating system, turn off the computer, wait a few seconds until all in-use lights go off, and restart the computer. (Do not use Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart the computer.) 2. If you have not set a password, the Configuration/Setup Utility program menu appears on the screen. If you have set a password, the Configuration/Setup Utility program menu will not appear until you type your password and press Enter. See "Using passwords" on page 34 for more information. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2000 29
