Updating UEFI BIOS Settings

Whenever Asus offers a motherboard BIOS update for my workstation, I usually need to rediscover the following settings which I inevitably forget to reset.  One of these makes VMWare upset, causing it to throw warnings that lead to the following knowledge base note.

Note to self for the future:

Motherboard: Asus P8Z77-V Deluxe
Processor: Intel Core i7-3770K @ 3.50GHz

To update the BIOS, press F2 while rebooting to get into setup, and then switch to the advanced configuration mode screen.  Modify the following settings:
  • Advanced | CPU Configuration | Intel Virtualization Technology [ENABLED]
  • Monitor | CPU Fan Speed Low Limit [300RPM]
