Initial Display From

This feature sets the device that will initiate the monitor display when the system is first turned on. The options are "PCI Slot" and "PCI Ex(press)".

Reset Configuration Data

Enabling this setting resets the extended system configuration data when you exit setup. Do this when you have installed a new add-on and the system reconfiguration has caused such a serious conflict that the OS cannot reboot the system. The options are "Enabled" and "Disabled."

Resources Controlled By

This setting allows the BIOS to automatically configure all boot and Plug and Play compatible devices. If you choose Auto, you cannot select the IRQ, DMA and memory base address fields, because the BIOS automatically assigns them. The options are "Auto (ESCD)" and "Manual".

IRQ Resources

If the above item-Resources Controlled By" is set to manual, the user is allowed to assign an IRQ to a PCI Device or Reserve an IRQ for other purpose. The options are: Auto (ESCD) and Manual.
