Clearing chassis intrusion alert
The computer features a chassis intrusion switch that detects when the base cover had been removed from the computer.
Alerts to notify you of any intrusions can be enabled through the Chassis Intrusion field in the Security submenu of the BIOS
setup menu.
When enabled, the Block Boot Until Cleared field allows you to choose whether to prevent normal boot-up of the computer
until the intrusion alert is cleared.
