You can enter most BIOS setup screens by hitting either F2, F8, or Delete while the system is first starting up. Some BIOSes do not support booting from a CD. If you are using a SCSI CD-ROM drive, you will need your BIOS to be set to boot from the SCSI bus, then set your SCSI's BIOS to boot the CD. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
