Accessing computer information
Before you access the updates for your computer, collect the
following information:
■ The product category is Notebook.
■ The product family name, series number, and serial number
(S/N) are provided on the service tag.
To determine whether an available BIOS update contains a later
BIOS version than the one currently installed on the computer,
you need to know the version of the system BIOS currently
installed.
BIOS version information (also known as ROM date and System
BIOS) can be displayed by pressing
fn+esc (if you are already in
Microsoft® Windows®) or by opening Computer Setup.
To use Computer Setup for displaying BIOS information:
1. Open Computer Setup by turning on or restarting the
computer, and then pressing
f10 while the “F10 = ROM
Based Setup” message is displayed in the lower-left corner
of the screen.
2. Use the arrow keys to select File > System Information, and
then press
enter.
ROM date information is displayed.
3. To exit Computer Setup, use the arrow keys to select File >
Ignore changes and exit. Then follow the instructions on the
screen.
