Setup
The Setup program is used to configure the computer’s BIOS (Basic Input/
Output System). The computer’s BIOS is responsible for configuring the
motherboard and providing hardware information to the operating system. In
order for the computer to run properly, run the Setup procedure after first
installing the system board and whenever you make a hardware change to the
system.
After the system is turned on and goes through a memory test, the Power-Up
Screen (Figure 4-1) will appear on your monitor:

When “Press <F2> to enter SETUP” appears at the bottom of the screen,
press the F2 key to begin the Setup procedure. The CMOS Main Screen
(Figure 4-2) should appear and the prompt should be on the time line. The
Setup procedure can only be activated during the boot sequence.
