enables you to select various setup parameters. The panels in this utility are
as follows:

v

Set the date and time.
v

v

Note:
You can set many of these parameters more easily by using the
ThinkPad Configuration Program. For more information on this
program, refer to the on-board help.
To start IBM BIOS Setup Utility, do as follows:
1.
To protect yourself against accidental loss of data, refer to “Backing up
your registry” in Access ThinkPad. Open Access ThinkPad by pressing the
ThinkPad button. Backing up your registry will save your computer’s
current configuration.
2.
Remove any diskette from the diskette drive, and then turn off the
computer.
3.
Turn on the computer; then, while the “ Press F1 for IBM BIOS Setup
Utility” message is displayed at the lower-left of the screen, press F1.
If you have set a supervisor password, the “IBM BIOS Setup Utility” menu
appears after you enter the password. You can start the utility by pressing
Enter instead of the supervisor password; then, however, you cannot
change any parameters that are protected by the supervisor password. For
more information, refer to the on-board help.
4.
Using the cursor keys, move to an item you want to change. When that
item is highlighted, press Enter. A submenu is displayed.
5.
Change the items you wish to change. To change the value of an item, use
the F5 or F6 key. If the item has a submenu, you can display it by pressing
Enter.
6.
Press F3 or Esc to exit from the submenu.
If you are in a nested submenu, press Esc repeatedly until you reach the
IBM BIOS Setup Utility menu.
Note:
If you need to restore the settings to their original state at the time
of purchase, press the F9 key to load the default settings. You can
also select an option in the Restart submenu to load the default
settings or discard the changes.
7.
Select Restart; then press Enter. Move to the option you want for restarting
your computer; then press Enter. Your computer restarts.
