Using the BIOS Setup Utility
APRICOT 340 OWNER’S HANDBOOK 3/11
Start Options
Certain features can be set or enabled automatically when the
computer boots.
Keyboard Numlock State
If set to “On”, the keys on the numeric keypad (on the right-hand
side of the keyboard) will produce numbers when pressed. If “Off”,
these keys provide cursor control functions instead.
Keyboard Speed
This sets the speed (frequency) at which a pressed key will repeat;
either “Fast” (the default) or “Normal”.
Disketteless Operation
If this option is “Disabled”, POST will look for and test the diskette
drive, and report an error if the drive is faulty or missing. If
“Enabled”, POST will omit the test and continue, provided that
another boot device is available (i.e. the hard disk drive).
Displayless Operation
If this option is “Disabled”, POST will look for an attached monitor
and report an error if it is missing; if “Enabled”, POST will allow the
computer to start without a monitor.
Keyboardless Operation
If this option is “Disabled”, POST will look for an attached
keyboard and report an error if it is faulty or missing; if “Enabled”,
POST will allow the computer to start without a keyboard.
Startup Devices
These options allow you to specify where the BIOS looks for an
operating system when it boots. If the computer cannot locate an
operating system on the First Startup Device, it tries the Second
Startup Device, and so on.
