BIOS SETUP UTILITY
The BIOS setup utility is a program that sets
the operating environment for your notebook.
It is referred to in this publication as the setup

Standard system parameters, such as date
and time.
■

I/O addresses and boot devices.
■
Power Management parameters that help to
conserve your notebook’s batteries.
■

pressing the F2 key during the boot
process while the Fujitsu logo is on
the screen.
