    Few options
    Is it possible you can tell me why there are virtually no options that I can change via the BIOS in my netbook computer apart from enabling or disabling the USB connectivity there are no other user changeable options. I realise the small size and the minimalist hardware spec and setup limit the user's ability to tweak, but the lack of the more obvious features that you will find on a desktop PC or even a medium spec laptop leaves me unable to re-configure the major components almost entirely.
    The model is a (MSI) branded 'Advent' 4211c, running off an atom n270 1.6ghz cpu with 1 gig RAM, 120 gig HD, a Realtek wireless module with integrated intel 945 graphics and operated on windows XP. It is an old model 2008, however if you have any suggestions I would be extremely grateful. Thank you, Carl UK.

    What key are you using to access the BIOS.

    Pressing the Del key should take you to the BIOS screen.

    Try updating the BIOS
