Integrated Devices
Sound Enables or disables the onboard audio controller
Network Interface
Controller You can set the NIC to On (default), Off, or On w/ PXE. When the On
w/PXE setting is active (available only for the future boot process), the
computer prompts the user to press <Ctrl><Alt><b>. Pressing this key
combination causes a menu to display that allows you to select a method for
booting from a network server. If a boot routine is not available from the
network server, the computer attempts to boot from the next device in the
boot sequence list.
Mouse Port Enables or disables the onboard PS/2-compatible mouse controller.
USB Emulation Set to On (default) so that USB devices will be detected and supported in
the operating system.
The No Boot option restricts external access to drive data. Use this option
to prohibit users from booting the computer using an external USB device.
USB Controller Set to On (default) so that multiple USB devices can be connected to a
system without compromising data speed. When set to Off, all connected
ports share a set data speed that is equivalent to one port.
Serial Port #1 Identifies and defines the serial port settings. Auto, the default setting,
automatically configures a connector to a particular designation (COM1 or
COM3).
Parallel Port
Mode Identifies and defines the parallel port settings. You can set the parallel port
to Off, AT, PS/2, EPP, or ECP.
Parallel Port I/O
Address Identifies the address for the parallel port.
Diskette
Interface Identifies and defines the floppy drive interface. You can set the interface to
Auto, Read Only, or Off.
Primary Video
Controller This setting specifies which video controller is primary when two video
controllers are present on the computer.
Onboard Video
Buffer Sets the amount of system memory to be reserved for the onboard video
controller.
Power Management
Suspend Mode The options are S1, a suspend state where the computer is running in a low-
power mode, and S3, a standby state where the power is reduced or turned
off for most components, however, system memory remains active.
AC Power Recovery Determines what happens when AC power is restored to the computer.
Low Power Mode When Low Power Mode is selected, remote wakeup events no longer power
up from Hibernate or Off.
