 Apply BIOS updates and check settings
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 Before beginning the Qubes installation, make sure that your Qubes-compatible computer's BIOS is updated to the latest available version. If you're using one of the recommended ThinkPad T-series models, see the section on :ref:`thinkpad_t_series`. The process will be different for other makes and models, and can usually be found on their respective support sites.
