General Help
In addition to the Item Specific Help window, the BIOS setup program also pro-
vides a General Help screen. This screen can be called up from any menu by sim-
ply pressing <F1> or the <Alt> + <H> combination. The General Help screen lists
the legend keys with their corresponding alternates and functions.
Saving Changes and Exiting the Setup Program
See 4.7 Exit Menu for detailed information on saving changes and exiting the
setup program.
Scroll Bar
When a scroll bar appears to the right of a help window, this indicates that there is
more information to be displayed that will not fit in the window. Use the <PgUp>
and <PgDn> keys or the up and down arrow keys to scroll through the entire help
document. Press the <Home> key to display the first page, press <End> to go to
the last page. To exit the help window, press the <Enter> or the <Esc> key.
Sub-Menu
Note that a right pointer symbol appears to the left of certain fields. This pointer
indicates that a sub-menu can be launched from this field. A sub-menu contains
additional options for a field parameter. To call up a sub-menu, simply move the
cursor to highlight the field and press <Enter>. The sub-menu will then immedi-
ately appear. Use the legend keys to enter values and move from field to field
within a sub-menu just as you would within a menu. Use the <Esc> key to return
to the main menu.
Take some time to familiarize yourself with each of the legend keys and their
corresponding functions. Practice navigating through the various menus and sub-
menus. If you accidentally make unwanted changes to any of the fields, use the set
default hot key. While moving around through the Setup program, note that expla-
nations appear in the Item Specific Help window located to the right of each menu.
This window displays the help text for the currently highlighted field.
NOTE: The item heading in square brackets represents the default setting for
that field.
