Updating your system UEFI BIOS
The UEFI BIOS is a part of the system programs that make up the basic layer of software built into your
tablet. The UEFI BIOS translates the instructions from other software layers.
Your tablet system board has a module called EEPROM, also referred to as flash memory. You can update
the UEFI BIOS and the ThinkPad Tablet Setup program by starting your tablet with a flash update optical
disc or flash update application running in the Windows environment.
In some instances when you add software, hardware, or a device driver, you might be informed that you
must update your UEFI BIOS in order for the new addition to work properly.
To update your UEFI BIOS, go to the following Web site and follow the instructions on the screen:

Using system management
This section is intended primarily for network administrators.
Your tablet is designed for manageability, so that you can redirect more of your resources to better meet
your business objectives.
This manageability, or “Total Cost of Ownership” (TCO), enables you to remotely operate client tablets in
the same way as you operate your own tablet, such as turning on a client tablet, formatting hard disk
drive, and installing software.
Once the tablet is configured and operational, you can manage it by use of software and manageability
features already integrated into the client system and the network.
System management

Desktop Management Interface
The system UEFI BIOS of your tablet supports an interface called System Management BIOS Reference
Specification (SMBIOS) V2.6.1 SMBIOS provides information about the hardware components of your
system. It is the responsibility of the BIOS to supply this database with information about itself and the
devices on the system board. This specification documents the standards for getting access to this BIOS
information.
Preboot eXecution Environment
Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) technology makes your tablet more manageable (it is PXE
2.1-compliant) by enabling it to boot (load an operating system or another executable image) from a server.
Your tablet supports the personal tablet functions that PXE requires. For example, with the appropriate LAN
card, your tablet can be booted from the PXE server.
