Overview of BIOS Features 
3.1 
Introduction 
The board uses an Intel BIOS that is stored in the Serial Peripheral Interface Flash 
Memory (SPI Flash) and can be updated using a disk-based program.  The SPI Flash 
contains the BIOS Setup program, POST, the PCI auto-configuration utility, and Plug 
and Play support. 
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision 
code.  The initial production BIOSs are identified as RQG4110H.86A
.
 
When the BIOS Setup configuration jumper is set to configure mode and the computer 
is powered-up, the BIOS compares the CPU version and the microcode version in the 
BIOS and reports if the two match. 
The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the 
computer.  The BIOS Setup program is accessed by pressing the <F2> key after the 
Power-On Self-Test (POST) memory test begins and before the operating system boot 
begins.  The menu bar is shown below.
