Chapter3  AMI BIOS SETUP  
3.1  Introduction 
This manual describes AMI's Setup program, which is built into the ROM BIOS. The 
Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This special 
information is then stored in battery-backed RAM so that it retains the Setup 
information when the power is turned off. 
 
3.2  Starting Setup 
The AMI BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The 
BIOS reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process 
of checking out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an 
operating system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the 
operating system. 
 
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways: 
1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or 
2. by pressing the <Del>key when the following message appears briefly at the 
bottom of the screen during the POST.
 
Press DEL to enter SETUP. 
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, 
restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" 
button on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, 
<Alt>, and <Delete> keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the 
system does 
not boot, an error message will be displayed and you will 
again be asked to...
 
 
3.3  Using Setup 
In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter> to select, use 
the PageUp and PageDown keys to change entries, press <F1> for help and press 
<Esc> to quit. The following table provides more detail about how to navigate in the 
Setup program using the keyboard
