Table 6-3 Computer Setup Advanced (for advanced users) (continued)
Option Heading
Boot Options Select the devices that the computer can boot from, as well as other options, including:
● Startup Delay (sec): Enabling this feature adds a user-specified delay to the POST process.
One purpose for the delay is to provide additional time to activate hotkeys such as esc for the
Startup Menu or f10 for Computer Setup.
● Fast Boot: Default is enabled.
● CD-ROM Boot (select products only): Default is enabled.
● USB Storage Boot: Default is enabled.
● Network (PXE) Boot: Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) lets you boot computers from the
server before deploying a PC image. Default is enabled.
● IPv6 during UEFI Boot: Default is enabled.
● Network (PXE) Boot Priority: Set to First to move the network to first boot priority. Default is Last.
NOTE: This setting is valid only when the boot order has not been changed in F10 Setup, as a
customized boot order takes priority over PXE boot.
● After Power Loss: Default is Power Off.
■ Power off: Causes the computer to remain off when power is restored.
■ Power on: Causes the computer to turn on automatically as soon as power is restored.
■ Previous state: Causes the computer to turn on automatically as soon as power is
restored, if it was on when power was lost.
NOTE: If the system is configured to Power On from Keyboard Ports (see Power Management
Options), then this setting is forced to Power On.
● Prompt on Memory Size Change: Default is enabled.
● Prompt on Fixed Storage Change: Default is disabled.

■ Stop: Show boot failed message only if no boot devices are found.

warnings, and password prompts during boot up are suppressed.
● Numlock on at boot: Default is disabled.
