Configuring RAID Controller in the BIOS Setup Utility
For all new OS installations on a hard disk drive, you should verify that the following BIOS settings are properly configured before you install the OS:
System time
System date
Boot order
In the BIOS Setup Utility, you can set optimal defaults, and you can view and edit BIOS settings as needed. All changes you make in the BIOS Setup Utility are permanent until the next time you change them.
Note - If necessary, you can specify a temporary boot device by pressing F8 during the BIOS start-up. The boot device setting is only in effect for the current system boot. After the system boots from a temporary boot device, the permanent boot device setting specified in the BIOS Setup Utility is in effect.
