Programmed I/O (PIO) Mode

IDE PIO mode programs timing cycles between the IDE drive and the programmable IDE controller. As the PIO mode increases, the cycle time decreases.

Set the PIO Mode option to Auto to have AMIBIOS select the PIO mode used by the IDE drive being configured. If you select a specific value for the PIO mode, you must make absolutely certain that you are selecting the PIO mode supported by the IDE drive being configured.

Available options are:

32Bit Mode

Hard disk drives connected to the SBC via the ISA Bus transfer data 16 bits at a time. An IDE drive on the PCI Local Bus can use a 32-bit data path.

If the 32Bit Mode parameter is set to On, AMIBIOS enables 32-bit data transfers. If the host controller does not support 32-bit transfer, this feature must be disabled.

Available options are:

Off

On

BOOT SECTOR This option allows you to request AMIBIOS to issue a warning when any program or VIRUS PROTECTION virus issues a Disk Format command or attempts to write to the boot sector of the hard

disk drive.

The Setup screen displays the system option:

Boot Sector Virus Protection

Disabled

Available options are:

Disabled

Enabled

If the Boot Sector Virus Protection option is set to Enabled, the following message displays when a write is attempted to the boot sector.

Boot Sector Write!!! Possible VIRUS: Continue (Y/N)?
