APPENDIX B: BIOS Settings
84
If you ever need to restore your BIOS settings, such as after a system board change, a record of
the settings will make the process much easier. You can print this appendix, then record your
custom BIOS settings on the printout. Only settings which can be changed are listed. For a
complete list of viewable BIOS settings, run the BIOS Setup utility.
To view all BIOS settings:
1 Restart your server.
2 Press F2 at any time after you see the LEDs on your keyboard flash or turn off. The BIOS
Setup utility opens.
3 Select menus and submenus to display setting information.
Caution
Setting the wrong values in the Advanced Menu may cause the server to malfunction.
