Can't boot passed F10

[Bill Strachan]

When booting up my Proliant ML530 G1, I get F10 and my machine won't boot past it unless I press F1. I realize that the F10 utility is normal, however there must be a way to disable, or set the machine up to boot past this after a specified period of time. I tried running the sys config and found nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

This is typically going to be caused by some error showing up during post. I would recommend resolving whatever is causing the POST error.

Another option, if for whatever reason the error is still occurring, then this can be disabled through the System Configuration Utility. I would recommended pressing F10 when prompted, but at the main menu press Ctrl-A, which will invoke advanced mode. Select system configuration, configure hardware, review or modify, and view or edit details. Scroll down and find the area approximately 1/3 the way down labelled "advanced features" and disable the F1 prompt.

Thanks, that worked just fine.
