Starting BIOS Setup Utility Your computer provides a program, called BIOS Setup Utility, that enables you to select various setup parameters. Note: If you are using Windows XP or Windows 2000, you can set many of these parameters more easily by using the ThinkPad Configuration Program. To protect yourself against accidental loss of data, back up your data and computer registry. For details see the "Data backup-and-restore tools" section of Access Help. If the diskette drive is connected to the computer, remove any diskette from the diskette drive, and then turn off the computer. Turn on the computer; then, while the message, "To interrupt normal startup, press the blue ThinkVantage button" is displayed at the lower left of the screen, press the ThinkVantage button. If you have set a supervisor password, the BIOS Setup Utility menu appears after you enter the password. You can start the utility by pressing Enter instead of entering the supervisor password; however, you cannot change the parameters that are protected by the supervisor password. If you are in a nested submenu, press Esc repeatedly until you reach the BIOS Setup Utility menu. [. . . ] See http://www. dtsc. ca. gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
