 IDE HDD Block Mode

 Enable this field if your IDE hard drive supports block mode. Block mode enables BIOS to

 automatically detect the optimal number of block read and writes per sector that the

 drive can support. It also improves the speed of access to IDE devices.

 IDE DMA transfer access

 This item allows you to enable the transfer access of the IDE DMA then burst onto the

 PCI bus and nonburstable transactions do not.

 On-Chip Primary PCI IDE

 The integrated peripheral controller contains an IDE interface with support for two IDE

 channels. Select [Enabled] to activate each channel separately.

 IDE Primary Master/Slave PIO

 Each IDE channel supports a master device and a slave device. These four items let you

 assign the kind of PIO (Programmed Input/Output) were used by the IDE devices. Choose Auto to let the system auto detect which PIO mode is best, or select a PIO mode from 0-4.
