BIOS SETUP UTILITY

The BIOS Setup Utility is a program that sets up the
operating environment for your notebook. Your BIOS
is set at the factory for normal operating conditions,
therefore there is no need to set or change the BIOS
environment to operate your notebook.

The BIOS Setup Utility configures:

■

Device control feature parameters, such as changing
I/O addresses and boot devices.

■

System Data Security feature parameters, such
as passwords.

Entering the BIOS Setup Utility

To enter the BIOS Setup Utility, do the following (or use
the SecureCore Menu, as detailed in the next section):

1. Turn on or restart your notebook.

2. Press [F2] once the Fujitsu logo appears on the
screen. This will open the main menu of the BIOS
Setup Utility with the current settings displayed.

3. Press the [RIGHT ARROW] or [LEFT ARROW] key
to scroll through the other setup menus to review or
alter the current settings.

Using the SecureCore Menu

When the Fujitsu logo appears on the screen. press the
[Enter] key or click on the left mouse or touchpad
button; the SecureCore Menu will appear.

The SecureCore Menu provides shortcuts to the
following menus and information screens:

information, or action described.

The Boot Menu can also be invoked by pressing the
[F12] key when the Fujitsu logo appears on the screen.

Navigating through the Setup Utility

The BIOS setup utility consists of six menus: Info,
System, Advanced, Security, Boot, and Exit. This docu­ment explains each menu in turn, including all
submenus and setup items.

The following procedures allow you to navigate the
setup utility menus:

1. To select a menu, use cursor keys:

2. To select a field within a menu or a submenu, use

cursor keys:

3. To select the different values for each field, press the
[Spacebar] or [+] to change to the next lower
selection and [F5] or [-] to go to the next higher
selection.

4. To activate a submenu press the [Enter] key.

5. To return to a menu from a submenu, press the [Esc]
key.

6. To go to the Exit menu from any other menu,
press the [Esc] key.

■

Selecting a field causes a help message
about that field to be displayed on the
right-hand side of the screen.

■

Pressing the Enter key with the highlight
on a selection that is not a submenu or
auto selection will cause a list of all
options for that item to be displayed.
Pressing the Enter key again will select
the highlighted choice.

7. Pressing the [F9] key resets all items in the BIOS to
the default values.

8. Pressing the [F10] key saves the current configura­tion and exits the BIOS Setup Utility. You will be
asked to verify this selection before it is executed.

9. Pressing the [F1] key gives you a general help screen.

Entering the Setup Utility After a Configuration Change or System Failure

If there has been a change in the system configuration
that does not agree with the parameter settings stored in
your BIOS memory, or there is a failure in the system,
the system beeps and/or displays an error message after
the Power On Self Test (POST). If the failure is not too

severe, it will give you an opportunity to modify the
setup utility settings, as described in the following steps:

1. When you turn on or restart the computer there is a
beep and/or the following message appears on the
screen:

the operating system anyway, press the [F1] key.

If your notebook emits a series of beeps
that sounds like a code and the display is
blank, please refer to the Troubleshoot­ing Section in the system User’s Guide.
The Troubleshooting Section includes a
list of error messages and their meanings.

you may be asked for a password before
the operating system will be opened.

SECURITY MENU – SETTING THE SECURITY FEATURES

The Security menu allows you to set up the data security
features of your notebook to fit your operating needs
and to view the current data security configuration. (See

Navigating through the Setup Utility on page 2 for more
information.)

The following tables show the names of the menu fields
for the Security Menu and its submenus, all the options
for each field, the default settings and a description of
the field's function and any special information needed
to help understand the field's use. The default condition
is no passwords required and no write protection.

Remember your passwords! If you set and
forget your User and Master hard disk
passwords, Fujitsu America, Inc. will not be
able to reset it. You may lose data and have
to replace your system board or hard disk
drive.

■

Entering a password incorrectly 3 times in
a row causes the keyboard and mouse to
be locked out and the warning [System
Disabled] to be displayed. If this hap­pens, restart the computer by turning off
and on the power with the power switch
and use the correct password on reboot.

■

If you make an error when re-entering
the password a Warning will display on
the screen. To try again press [Enter],
then retype the password. Press [Esc] to
abort the password setting process.

Boot Device Priority Submenu of the Boot Menu

The Boot Device Priority submenu is for setting the order of checking of sources for the operating system.

■

Be aware of the operating environment when booting from a CD or you may overwrite files by mistake.

■

A bootable CD-ROM has either a floppy disk format or a hard drive format. When the bootable CD-ROM
is used, the drive allocations change automatically without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk for­mat is used, the CD-ROM becomes Drive A. The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive format) if
the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled. The CD-ROM can never use a C: designation if a for­matted internal hard drive is present since C: is always reserved for the internal hard drive.The boot
sequence ignores the new drive designations, but your application software will use the new designations.

Exiting from Boot Menu

When you have finished setting the boot parameters with the Boot Menu, you can either exit from the setup utility or
move to another menu. If you wish to exit from the setup utility press the [Esc] key to go to the Exit Menu. If you wish
to move to another menu, use cursor keys.

The boot selections determine the order in which the BIOS searches for the operating system during a
startup sequence. To change the order, highlight one source by using the [up] or [down] cursor keys and
then press the [+] or [-] key to change the order number. Tapping [x] removes from the list a device that is
not installed. Tapping [x] on an item in the Excluded list adds the device to the Boot priority list. Be sure to
save your changed order when you exit the BIOS setup utility.

NOTE: Be aware that if you use the CD-ROM drive as the first boot device, certain files may be
overwritten, depending upon your operating environment.
