Chapter 5. Using the Setup Utility

Selecting a startup device

If your computer does not start up (boot) from a device such as the

CD-ROM, diskette, or hard disk as expected, use one of the following

procedures to select a startup device.

Selecting a temporary startup device

Use this procedure to startup from any boot device.

Note: Not all CDs, hard disks, and diskettes are bootable.

1. Turn oﬀ your computer.

2. Press and hold the F12 key then turn on the computer. When the

Startup Device Menu appears, release the F12 key.

Note: If you are using a USB keyboard and the Startup Device Menu

does not display using this method, repeatedly press and release

the F12 key rather than leaving it pressed when turning on the

computer.

3. Select the desired startup device from the Startup Device Menu and

press Enter to begin.

Note: Selecting a startup device from the Startup Device menu does

not permanently change the startup sequence.

Selecting or changing the startup device sequence

To view or permanently change the conﬁgured startup device sequence,

do the following:

1. Start the Setup Utility program (see “Starting the Setup Utility program”

on page 16).

2. Select Boot.

3. Select Boot Device Priority.

4. Select the devices for the 1st Boot Device or the 2nd Boot Device.

5. Press ESC to return the Primary Boot Sequence and then Save changes

and Exit.

If you have changed these settings and want to return to the default

settings, select Load Optimal Defaults on the Setup Utility menu.
