# BIOS Settings

First, make sure your BIOS is up-to-date. You can find the [latest BIOS here](https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/126143). At the time of writing, the latest version is **HN0063** so make sure your BIOS is at least that version.

It is important to reset your BIOS settings to the defaults. After everything is working, you can come back and tweak any overclock settings. After resetting the BIOS settings, we make three changes:

![Disable portable device charging mode or a device plugged into the yellow USB port will prevent the computer from sleeping.](/files/-LiLnzclela4ofaZpJdk)

![Set Thunderbolt Security Level to Legacy Mode or TB3 will not work.](/files/-LiLo9KiCYvpz6id4kc8)

![Disable secure boot or Clover will not load.](/files/-LiLoFs8L5fYslVopF55)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://osy.gitbook.io/hac-mini-guide/installation-guide/bios-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
