Running SETUP
The SETUP program defines your system’s configuration so the
computer recognizes all of its devices. Because your computer
was set up at the factory, the configuration information is
accurate the first time you start the computer. If you change the
computer’s configuration by adding optional devices, however,
you need to update the SETUP settings.
The SETUP program is stored in the computer’s ROM BIOS
(read-only memory, basic input/output system), so you can
access it any time you turn on or reset the computer. SETUP
lets you verify or change the following settings:
Current date and time
Diskette drive or printer connection
Self test error level (Halt on)
Shadow RAM
Password feature
Hard disk drive type
System booting sequence
Virus warning
Power management options.
