HP 800 G1 21.5 Non-Touch manual Bios Power-On, Onboard Devices, Bus Options

Table 6-5Computer Setup—Advanced (for advanced users) (continued)

	◦	Clear Memory = No memory count on cold boot. Clears memory on all boots.
	◦	FullBoot Every x Days = Memory count on 1st cold boot on or after the xth day. No more
		memory counts until 1st cold boot on or after x days. Clears memory on all boots.
	● POST messages (enable/disable). Enabling this feature will cause the system to display POST
	error messages, which are error messages displayed on the monitor during the Power On Self
	Test if the BIOS encounters some kind of problem while starting the PC. A POST error message
	will only display on screen if the computer is capable of booting this far. If the POST detects
	an error before this point, a beep code is generated instead. Default is disabled.
	● Press the ESC key for Startup Menu (Enable/Disable). This feature controls the display of the
	text “Press the ESC key for Startup Menu” during POST. This text does not display on
	Windows 8 systems with Fast Boot support. Other text also will not display (for example,
	Ownership Tag). Default is enabled.
	● Option ROM Prompt (enable/disable). Enabling this feature will cause the system to display a
	message before loading option ROMs. Default is enabled.
	● After Power Loss (off/on/previous state). Default is Power off. Setting this option to:
	◦	Power off—causes the computer to remain powered off when power is restored.
	◦	Power on—causes the computer to power on automatically as soon as power is restored.
	◦	Previous state—causes the computer to power on automatically as soon as power is
		restored, if it was on when power was lost.
	NOTE: If you turn off power to the computer using the switch on a power strip, you will not be
	able to use the suspend/sleep feature or the Remote Management features.
	● POST Delay (in seconds). Enabling this feature will add a user-specified delay to the POST
	process. This delay is sometimes needed for hard disks on some PCI cards that spin up very
	slowly, so slowly that they are not ready to boot by the time POST is finished. The POST delay
	also gives you more time to select F10 to enter Computer (F10) Setup. Default is None.
	● Remote Wakeup Boot Source (remote server/local hard drive). Default is Local hard drive.
	● Factory Recovery Boot Support (Enable/Disable). Provides the ability for the BIOS to redirect
	the boot to the recovery partition on the user hard drive, if present. Some versions of the
	recovery software honor the F11 key press even when this feature is disabled by the BIOS.
	Default is disabled.
	● Bypass F1 Prompt on Configuration Changes (Enable/Disable). Allows you to set the computer
	not to confirm when changes were made. Default is disabled.
	● POST Memory Manager Runtime Allocation (Enable/Disable). Default is Disabled.
BIOS Power-On	Allows you to set the computer to turn on automatically at a time you specify.
Onboard Devices	Allows you to set resources for or disable Legacy devices.
	Select the Legacy device's IRQ, DMA, and I/O Range. The settings may not take effect for all
	operating systems. To hide a device from the operating system, see Security > Device Security.
Bus Options	Allows you to enable or disable:
	● PCI SERR# Generation. Default is enabled.

● PCI VGA Palette Snooping, which sets the VGA palette snooping bit in PCI configuration space; only needed when more than one graphics controller is installed. Default is disabled.
