2.13 BIOS Setup Screens (X4540) TABLE 2-3 contains summary descriptions of the seven top-level BIOS setup screens for the Sun Fire X4540. TABLE 2-3 BIOS Setup Screens Summary Screen Description BIOS Main Menu Screen (X4540) General system information. BIOS Advanced Menu, Advanced Settings (X4540) Configuration information for the CPUs, IDE, HyperTransport, ACPI, Event Log, IPMI, MPS, PCI Express, Remote Access, Trusted Compuring and USB. Eleven additional screens can be accessed from the Advanced menu. BIOS PCI/PnP Menu Plug-and-Play (PnP) devices can be configured by the BIOS (default), (X4540) or by the operating system (if applicable). BIOS Boot Settings Menu, Main Screen (X4540) Configure the boot device priority. BIOS Security Settings Menu (X4540) Install or change the user and supervisor passwords. BIOS Advanced Chipset Settings, Main Screen (X4540) Configuration options for the NorthBridge, and SouthBridge devices. Five separate screens can be accessed from the Chipset menu. Note that the Memory Chipkill option is enabled by default. Enabling Chipkill improves system reliability but degrades system performance under specific applications. BIOS Exit Options Save or discard changes. Menu Screen (X4540) FIGURE 2-4 summarizes the BIOS menu tree. See Section 2.16, "BIOS Setup Menu Screens (X4540)" on page 2-50 for examples of each of these screens. Chapter 2 Powering On and Configuring BIOS Settings 2-45
