IDE HDD Block Mode

This option allows your hard disk controller to use the fast block mode to transfer data to and from your hard disk drive (HDD).

Enabled

IDE controller uses block mode.

Disabled

IDE controller uses standard mode.

IDE PIO

IDE hard drive controllers can support up to two separate hard drives. These drives have a master/slave relationship, which is determined by the cabling configuration used to attach them to the controller. Your system supports one IDE controller – a primary and a secondary – so you have the ability to install up to four separate hard disks.

PIO means Programmed Input/Output. Rather than have the BIOS issue a series of commands effect a transferring to or from the disk drive, PIO allows the BIOS to tell the controller what it wants and then let the controller and the CPU perform the complete task by them. This is simpler and more efficient (and faster). Your system supports five modes, numbered from 0 to 4, which primarily differ in timing. When Auto is selected, the BIOS will select the best available mode.

KBC input clock

This item it to chose the input clock of Keyboard Controller

OnBoard Serial Port 1 & 2

These options are used to select the port address of the on-board serial port A. 3E8H, 2E8H, Auto and Disable. Port 1 is COM A; Port 2 is Com D and so on. (Choose Auto) if the IrDA device has been connected.

The options are 3F8H, 2F8H, Port four can be set to be IrDA

OnBoard Parallel Port

This option is used to select the port address of the on-board parallel port. The options are 378H, 278H, 3BCH, and Disabled.

Parallel Port Mode
