BIOS Setup
System BIOS
BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) records hardware parameters of the system in the EFI on the
motherboard. Its major functions include conducting the Power-On Self-Test (POST) during system startup,
saving system parameters, loading the operating system etc. The BIOS includes a BIOS Setup program that
allows the user to modify basic system configuration settings or to activate certain system features. When the
power is turned off, the battery on the motherboard supplies the necessary power to the CMOS to keep the
configuration values in the CMOS.
To access the BIOS Setup program, press the <DEL> key during the POST when the power is turned on.
• When changing the system configuration settings
• When redefining the communication ports to prevent any conflicts
• When modifying the power management configuration
• When changing the password or making other changes to the security setup
• When a configuration error is detected by the system and you are prompted (“Run Setup”
message) to make changes to the BIOS setup
NOTE: If you repeatedly receive Run Setup messages, the battery may be bad. Ask qualified technician for
assistance.
NOTE: The screenshots used in this guide display default system values. These values may not be the same
those found in your system.

Entering BIOS Setup
1. Turn on the server and the monitor.
If the server is already turned on, close all open applications, then restart the server.
2. During POST, press DEL
If you fail to press DEL before POST is completed, you will need to restart the server. The Setup Main menu
will be displayed showing the Setup’s menu bar. Use the left and right arrow keys to move between
selections on the menu bar.
