the lower-right corner of the screen, press F10. Press Enter to bypass the title screen, if necessary.
NOTE: If you do not press the F10 key while the message is displayed, the workstation must be
powered off, then on again, to access the utility.
2. From the Computer Setup (F10) Utility menu, select File>Set Defaults, and then select Exit. This

not force hardware rediscovery.
