Integrated Peripherals

Init Display First

With systems that have multiple video cards, this option determines whether the primary display uses a PCI slot or an AGP slot. Options: AGP (default)、PCI Slot

OnChip IDE Device

IDE HDD Block Mode

Block mode is otherwise known as block transfer, multiple commands, or multiple sector read/write. Select the “Enabled” option if your IDE hard drive supports block mode (most new drives do). The system will automatically determine the optimal number of blocks to read and write per sector. Options: Enabled (default)、Disabled

On-Chip Primary/Secondary PCI IDE

The mainboard chipset contains a PCI IDE interface with support for two IDE channels. Select “Enabled” to activate the first and/or second IDE interface. Select “Disabled” to deactivate the interface if you are going to install a primary and/or secondary add-in IDE interface. Options: Enabled (default)、Disabled

IDE Primary/Secondary/Master/Slave PIO

The IDE PIO (Programmed Input / Output) fields let you set a PIO mode (0-4) for each of the IDE devices that the onboard IDE interface supports. Modes 0 to 4 will increase performance incrementally. In Auto mode, the system automatically determines the best mode for each device. Options: Auto (default)、Mode0、Mode1、Mode2、Mode3、Mode4.
