4 Summary of the HP/Phoenix BIOS
HP/Phoenix BIOS (BIOS version: GX.07.xx)
Some fields disappear completely when a choice in another field makes their
appearance inappropriate (for example, the “Key auto-repeat speed” and
“Delay before auto-repeat” fields disappear when the user selects
Yes in the
“Running Windows 95” field, since these parameters can then be set within
the operating system).
Configuration Menu (BIOS version: GX.07.xx)
The Configuration Menu does not have the same structure as the Main Menu
and Power Menu. Instead of presenting a list of fields, it offers the user a list
of sub-menus. Again, the user steps between the options using the up and
down arrow keys, but presses the key to enter the chosen sub-
menu (and the key to go back again when finished).
If access to devices has been disabled in the Security Menu, then the
configuration of those devices on the Configuration Menu becomes frozen,
as shown in the diagram below for Serial port A. The field becomes starred,
appears in a different color and cannot be changed.
