● To prevent electric shock, fire, and/or malfunction, install only Fujitsu brand expansion cards in the PC.

● To prevent injury, when installing and removing expansion cards, remove screws only from specified locations.

Injury

To install expansion cards, "resources" must be set. The floppy disk drive or hard disk drive inside the PC uses predetermined paths specific to those devices when transferring data with the CPU and memory. These paths include I/O port addresses, DMA channels, and interrupt levels (IRQ), which are generally called "resources."

There are two types of expansion cards: one for PCI bus and one for ISA bus. Expansion cards for PCI bus are "Plug & Play compatible cards." Expansion cards for ISA bus may be either "Plug & Play compatible cards" or "Plug & Play incompatible cards." Before installing expansion cards, read the following descriptions.

● To prevent injury and/or malfunction, do not touch PC board components not specified.

● To prevent injury and/or device failure, do not touch the metal bracket on the motherboard at the rear of the PC main unit.

Preface

What is BIOS setup?

○○○○○○○

BIOS setup is a program that helps the user set up a hardware environment, including memory, hard disks, and floppy disk drives. Minimum setup has already been installed on this personal computer when you purchase it. BIOS must be set up under the following circumstances:

- When a storage unit, such as a floppy disk drive or a built-in hard disk (IDE), is mounted or removed

- When a password permitting specific users to access the PC is set

- When memory or serial ports are set up

- When the power savings mode is released or changed (to put in standby mode when power is on but PC is not used)

- When a message requesting BIOS setup is displayed

- When another Operating System (OS) is used

Point

Contents selected in BIOS setup are stored in the PC internal memory called CMOS RAM, which stores recorded contents using batteries. If an error message indicating BIOS setup is displayed when the PC is turned on or rebooted even if BIOS setup is completed correctly, the setup contents will not be stored in this CMOS RAM if the batteries are dead.
