    Hi!

    A friend of mine who is pretty technophobic is moving to USA today. He's planning to buy an Asus Eee PC 1201T without an OS there and asked me to walk him through windows installation over the phone.

    I did download the manual for the computer from Asus's website but it didn't list BIOS options so I'm asking for help here.

    Does it have separate boot device selection menu and if yes what button is used to access it?

    Are there any other important setting is BIOS which may need to be changed in order for computer to perform correctly?

    Also what Asus specific stuff is good to install and what is bloat-ware? I'm mainly thinking at ASUS ExpresssGate Utility, Eee Splendid Utility, ASUS Vibe Utility, KB Filter Utility and Super Hybrid Engine and drivers.
