You can use the Miscellaneous Settings screen to perform specific functions such as updating the asset
tag, and changing the system date and time.
About this task
You can view
the Miscellaneous Settings screen by clicking System Setup Main Menu > System BIOS > Miscellaneous Settings.
The Miscellaneous Settings screen details are explained as
follows:
Menu Item
Description
System Time
Enables you to set the time on the system.
System Date
Enables you to set the date on the system.
Asset Tag
Displays the asset tag and enables you to modify it for security
and tracking purposes.
Keyboard NumLock
Enables you to set whether the system boots with the NumLock enabled
or disabled. By default the Keyboard NumLock is set to On.
NOTE:This option does not
apply to 84-key keyboards.
F1/F2 Prompt on Error
Enables or disables the F1/F2 prompt on error. By default, F1/F2 Prompt on Error is set to Enabled. The F1/F2 prompt also includes keyboard errors.
Load Legacy Video Option ROM
Enables you to determine wether the system BIOS loads the legacy
video (INT 10H) option ROM from the video controller. Selecting Enabled in the operating system does not support UEFI
video output standards. This field is only for UEFI boot mode. You
cannot set this to Enabled if UEFI
Secure Boot mode is enabled.
In-System Characterization
This option enables or disables In-System Characterization. By default, In-System Characterization is
set to Enabled - No Reboot. The two other options
are Enabled and Disabled.
When enabled, In-System Characterization (ISC) executes during
POST upon detecting relevant change(s) in system configuration to
optimize system power and performance. ISC takes about 20 seconds
to execute, and system reset is required for ISC results to be applied.
The Enabled - No Reboot option executes ISC
and continues without applying ISC results until the next time system
reset occurs. The Enabled option executes ISC
and forces an immediate system reset so that ISC results can be applied.
It takes the system longer to be ready due to the forced system reset.
When disabled, ISC does not execute.
