CPU L1/L2 Cache ECC Checking

When you select Enabled, memory checking is enabled when the external cache contains ECC SRAMs.

Quick Power On Self Test

Select Enabled to reduce the amount of time required to run the power-on self-test (POST). A quick POST skips certain steps. We recommend that you normally disable quick POST. Better to find a problem during POST than lose data during your work

First/Second/Third/Other Boot Device

The BIOS attempts to load the operating system from the devices in the sequence selected in these items.

Swap Floppy Drive

This field is effective only in systems with two floppy drives. Selecting Enabled assigns physical drive B to logical drive A, and physical drive A to logical drive B.

If the system has two floppy drives, you can swap the logical drive name assignments.

Boot Up NumLock Status

 

 

Toggle between On or Off to control the state of

 

 

the NumLock key when the system boots. When

 

 

toggled On, the numeric keypad generates

 

 

numbers instead of controlling cursor operations.

 

 

 

 

 

Gate A20 option

 

 

Gate A20 refers to the way the system addresses

 

 

memory above 1 MB (extended memory). When

 

 

set to Fast, the system chipset controls Gate A20.

 

 

When set to Normal, a pin in the keyboard

 

 

controller controls Gate A20. Setting Gate A20 to

 

 

Fast improves system speed, particularly with

 

 

OS/2 and Windows

 

 

 

 

 

Typematic Rate Setting

 

 

When Disabled, the following two items

 

 

(Typematic Rate and Typematic Delay) are

 

 

irrelevant. Keystrokes repeat at a rate determined

 

 

by the keyboard controller in your system. When

 

 

Enabled, you can select a typematic rate and

 

 

typematic delay.

 

 

 

 

 

Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec)

 

 

When the typematic rate setting is enabled, you

 

 

can select a typematic rate (the rate at which

 

 

character repeats when you hold down a key) of

 

 

6, 8, 10,12, 15, 20, 24 or 30 characters per

 

 

second.
