Parallel Mode controls whether the system’s built-in parallel port acts as an AT-compatible (unidirectional) or PS/2-compatible (bidirectional) port.

Set Parallel Mode according to the type of peripheral device connected to the parallel port. To determine the correct mode to use, see the documentation that came with the device.

Diskette controls the operation of the system’s built-in diskette drive controller.

With Auto (the default) selected, the system turns off the built-in diskette drive con- troller when necessary to accommodate a controller card installed in an expansion slot.

With Write Protect selected, nothing can be written to diskette drives using the system’s built-in diskette drive controller. (The system can still read from the drives.) When this option is selected, the Auto option (whereby the system turns off the built-in diskette drive controller as necessary) is also in effect.

Selecting Off turns off the built-in diskette controller; this option is used primarily for troubleshooting purposes.

6SHDNHU￿

Speaker controls the built-in speaker. The default is On. Rebooting the system is required for a change to take effect.

Primary SCSI and Secondary SCSI turn the respective SCSI controller on or off. Selecting On (the default option) enables the built-in PCI SCSI controller and scans the associated read-only memory (ROM). For the system to boot from a drive attached to the built-in SCSI controller, the drive must be enabled. Selecting Off causes the BIOS to mask the presence of a device.

The following fields, which are not selectable, display information about the system:

‡The processor line displays the microprocessor type and speed.

‡Level 2 Cache displays the size of the integrated cache (512 kilobytes [KB]).

‡System Memory indicates the entire amount of installed memory detected in your system, except for memory on Expanded Memory Specification (EMS) expansion cards. After adding memory, check System Memory to confirm that the new memory is installed correctly and is recognized by the system.
