BIOS SETUP UTILITY

The BIOS Setup Utility is a program that sets up the operating environment for your notebook. Your BIOS is set at the factory for normal operating conditions, therefore there is normally no need to set or change the

BIOS environment to operate your notebook.

The BIOS Setup Utility configures:

Device control feature parameters, such as changing

I/O addresses and boot devices.

System Data Security feature parameters, such as passwords.

Entering the BIOS Setup Utility

To enter the BIOS Setup Utility, do the following (or use the TrustedCore Menu, as detailed in the next section):

1. Turn on or restart your notebook.

2. Press [F2] once the Fujitsu logo appears on the screen. This will open the main menu of the BIOS

Setup Utility with the current settings displayed.

3. Press the [RIGHT ARROW] or [LEFT ARROW] key to scroll through the other setup menus to review or alter the current settings.

Configuration Change or System Failure

If there has been a change in the system configuration that does not match the parameter settings stored in your BIOS memory, or there is a failure in the system, the system beeps and/or displays an error message after the Power On Self Test (POST). If the failure is not too severe, it will give you the opportunity to modify the settings of the setup utility, as described in the following steps:

Boot Device Priority Submenu of the Boot Menu

The Boot Device Priority submenu is for setting the order of checking of sources for the operating system.

Be aware of the operating environment when booting from a CD or you may overwrite files by mistake.

A bootable CD-ROM has either a floppy disk or a hard drive format. When a bootable CD-ROM is used, drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If floppy disk format is used, the CD-ROM becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive format) if the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled. A bootable CD-ROM cannot use a C: designation if a formatted internal hard drive is present since the C: designator is always reserved for the internal hard drive.The boot sequence ignores new drive designations, but your application software will use the new designations.

In order for a portable USB memory device (e.g., JumpDrive or memory stick) to be recognized in the

Boot Device Priority list, it must have been installed before booting the system.

Note that some older portable USB memory devices may not be recognized as bootable devices.

The Boot Menu can also be invoked outside of the Setup Utility using the TrustedCore menu or the [F12]

key. See Using the TrustedCore Menu for more information.

Description

The boot selections determine the order in which the BIOS searches for the operating system during a startup sequence. To change the order, highlight one source by using the [up] or

[down] cursor keys and then press the [+] or [-] key to change the order number. Tapping [x] removes from the list a device that is not installed. Tapping [x] on an item in the Excluded list adds the device to the Boot priority list. Be sure to save your changed order when you exit the

BIOS setup utility.

NOTE: Be aware that if you use the CD-ROM drive as the first boot device, certain files may be overwritten, depending upon your operating environment.

Exiting from Boot Menu

When you have finished setting the boot parameters with the Boot menu, you can either exit from the setup utility or move to another menu. If you wish to exit from the setup utility press the [Esc] key to go to the Exit menu. If you wish to move to another menu, use the cursor keys.
