The System Setup Option
From the System Setup screen, you can set the options
described below.
Setting the time and date
The real-time clock in your computer continuously tracks the
date and time-even when the computer is turned off. Once
you set the System Time and System Date options, you
should not need to change them, unless you adjust the time for
daylight savings or a different time zone. (The computer
automatically changes the date for leap years.)
Setting the video display type
The Video Systemoption allows you to define the type of
display adapter you are using. If you connected your monitor
to the computer’s built-in VGA port, select
