POST Display Mode

The field determines how much information about your SCSI controller and devices appear on the screen during bootup. For the most complete information, choose [Diagnostic]. For a faster boot, select [Silent]. Setting options: [Verbose], [Silent], [Diagnostic].

SCSI Controller Int 13 Support

The field allows you to enable or disable the support for Int 13h. The software interrupt “Int 13h” is the interface through which the operating system or appli- cation is able to pass commands to hard disk drives, such as reading, writing and formatting. Setting options: [Enabled], [Disabled: NOT scan], [Disabled: scan bus].

Domain Validation

When enabled, these options are available if they are implemented in the device drivers. However, this option is not supported by the BIOS.

Support Removable Disks Under Int13 as Fixed Disks

When [Boot Only] is selected, only the removable media drive designated as the boot device will be treated as a hard disk drive. When [All Disks] is selected, all removable media drives supported by the BIOS are treated as hard disk drives. If selecting [Disabled], no removable media drive is treated as a hard disk drive and the removable media drives must be controlled by the OS drivers.

BIOS Support for Bootable CD-ROM

When enabled, the SCSI controller BIOS supports bootable CD-ROM under the El Torito specification. If booting from a hard disk or other device, make sure no bootable CD-ROM is inserted or disable this option.
