Appendix A. Sample Visual Basic scripts for
configuring BIOS settings
The Visual Basic command line scripts in the ZIP file are examples
that you may find helpful when configuring BIOS settings.
The scripts in the ZIP file can be used as-is on Windows XP ,
Windows Vista or Windows 7 to modify BIOS settings on your
Lenovo computer. The scripts can be executed on a command
prompt using the cscript.exe utility. On Windows Vista, you must
run the scripts from an administrator command prompt.
Note: The scripts in this appendix are for reference only. To copy
and paste scripts, use the scripts in the ZIP file. Pay attention to that
symbol “;” is treated as the end of paramter in script, so make sure
each method input paramter in script will end with “;”
Restore default settings
Use the example scripts in the ZIP file as templates to restore default
settings on the local computer.
Syntax: cscript.exe LoadDefaults.vbs
Example:
cscript.exe LoadDefaults.vbs
