Language (or press F2) Change the Computer Setup
language.
Boot Options Enable/disable
■ QuickBoot, which starts the
computer more quickly by
eliminating some startup tests. (If
you suspect a memory failure
and want to test memory
automatically during startup, you
may want to disable QuickBoot.)
■ MultiBoot, which enables you to
set a startup sequence that can
include any drives and PCI
network adapters in the system.
For instructions, refer to
“Changing the Startup Sequence
with MultiBoot” in Chapter 6.
Device Options
■ Enable/disable the embedded
numeric keypad at startup.
■ Enable multiple standard pointing
devices at startup, or disable this
feature so the computer supports
only a single (usually
non-standard) pointing device at
startup.
■ Enable/disable USB legacy
support for one USB mouse and
one USB keyboard. (When USB
legacy support is enabled, the
keyboard and mouse work
without a loaded USB driver.)
■ Set an optional external monitor
or overhead projector connected
to a video card in a docking base
as the primary device. (When the
computer display is set as
secondary, the computer must be
shut down before undocking.)
■ Change the parallel port mode
from EPP (default) to standard,
bidirectional, EPP, or ECP.
