To use the disk for BIOS RECOVERY, it is necessary to
drain the 5V standby charge. This can be done as follows:
- Remove the A/C power lead
- Press the ON/OFF switch (to drain any residual charge)
- Reconnect the power lead

Please note, video is not enabled during recovery. The system will beep when BIOS
recovery is complete. |
