IDE Drive Power Down

When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set any IDE drives to spin down when the system goes into power managed mode. The options are Enabled and Disabled. The default is Enabled.

VESA Video Power Down

When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the command issued to your graphics card when the system goes into power managed mode. The command options are Disabled, Standby, Suspend, and Sleep. The default is Sleep.

Inactivity Timer

This allows you to set how many minutes the system must be inactive before it enters power managed mode. The range is 0 to 255 minutes. The default is 10 minutes.

Hot Key

This allows you to enter a hot key that, when pressed while holding down the <Ctrl> and <Alt> keys, will cause the system to enter power managed mode. All alphanumeric keys, punctuation, and spaces are valid.

PLUG AND PLAY CONFIGURATION SUBMENU

Configuration Mode

When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set how the BIOS gets information about ISA cards that do not have plug and play capabilities. The options are Use Setup Utility and Use ICU (ISA Configuration Utility). The default is Use Setup Utility.

If Use ICU is selected, the BIOS will depend on run-time software to ensure that there are no conflicts between ISA boards with plug and play capabilities and those without. None of the rest of the items in this submenu will be visible.

If Use Setup Utility is selected, the BIOS will depend on the following items to avoid conflicts.

ISA Shared Memory Size

When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the size of ISA shared memory. The options are Disabled, 16 KB, 32 KB, 48 KB, 64 KB, 80KB, and 96 KB. The default is Disabled. If this is set to Disabled, ISA Shared Memory Base Address, below, will not be visible.

ISA Shared Memory Base Address

When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the base address for the ISA Shared Memory. The options are C8000h, CC000h, D0000h, D4000h, D8000h, and DC000h. The default is C8000h. This setting may affect the ISA Shared Memory Size item. The value entered in the ISA Shared Memory Size item cannot extend into the E0000h address. For example, if a size of 64K was selected, options D4000h, D8000h, and DC000h will not be available.

Boot With PnP OS

When Enabled is selected, the BIOS will activate only those Plug and Play add-in cards needed to boot the system, then pass control to the operating system to configure any remaining Plug and Play add-in cards. The default is Disabled, but this feature should be set to Enabled for use with Windows 95..

IRQ 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12

When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the status of the IRQ. The options are Available and Used By ISA Card. The default is Available. The PCI auto-configuration code looks here to see if these interrupts are
