3.1 BIOS Introduction
With the AMI BIOS Setup program, you can modify BIOS settings and control various
system features. This chapter describes the basic navigation of the DS-570 series
BIOS setup screens.
AMI BIOS’s ROM has a built-in setup program that allows users to modify the basic
system configuration. This information is stored in the flash part CMOS so it retains
the setup information when the power is turned off.
3.2 Entering Setup
3.2.1 Main Setup
When you first enter the BIOS Setup Utility, you will enter the Main setup screen. You
can always return to the Main setup screen by selecting the Main tab.
The Main BIOS setup screen has two main frames. The left frame displays all the
options that can be configured. Options in blue can be configured, and grayed-out
options cannot be configured. The right frame displays the key legend.
The key legend in the top is an area reserved for a text message. When an option is
selected in the left frame, it is highlighted in white. Often a text message will accom-
pany it.
