    BIOS Setup Utility
    The BIOS Setup Utility is a hardware configuration program built into your computer’s BIOS (Basic Input/
    Output System).
    Your computer is already properly configured and optimized, and you do not need to run this utility. However, 
    if you encounter configuration problems, you may need to run Setup.  Please also refer to Chapter 4
     Troubleshooting when problem arises.
    To activate the BIOS Utility, press 
    m during POST (when “Press  to enter Setup” message is prompted
     on the bottom of screen). 
    The setup screen displays BIOS as follows:Navigating the BIOS Utility
    During setup,all Fn function keys and power saving functions are disabled.
    There are five menu options: Main, Advanced, Security, Boot and Exit.
    Follow these instructions:
    TTo choose a menu, use the cursor left/right keys (zx).
    TTo choose a parameter, use the cursor up/down keys ( wy).
    TTo change the value of a parameter, press p or q.
    TPress ^ while you are in any of the menu options to go to the Exit menu.
    TIn any menu, you can load default settings by pressing t. You can also press u to save any
                        changes made and exit the BIOS Setup Utility.
    NOTE: You can change the value of a parameter if it is enclosed in square brackets. Navigation keys for a 
     particular menu are shown on the bottom of the screen. Help for parameters are found in the Item 
    Specific Help part of the screen. Read this carefully when making changes to parameter values.
