Chapter 4: Award BIOS

IDE Primary Master/Slave UDMA

This is available only when your IDE drive supports UDMA and the operating environment also includes a UDMA drive. If your IDE hard drive and your system software both support UDMA, select Auto to enabled BIOS support. The options for this setting are "Auto" and "Disabled".

Video

Use this setting to specify the type of display you are using with the system. Options are "EGA/VGA", "CGA 40", "CGA 80" and "MONO".

Halt On

If the system encounters a non-specified error during boot-up, it will come to a halt as directed by these settings. You can tell the system to halt on "All Errors", "No Errors", "All, But Keyboard", "All, But Diskette" or "All, But Disk/Key".

Base Memory/Extended Memory/Total Memory

These are displays that inform you how much of each type of memory is recognized as being present in the system.
