X7DBT/X7DBT-INF/X7DGT/X7DGT-INF User's Manual

PCI Configuration

Access the submenu to make changes to the following settings for PCI devices.

Onboard GLAN1/Onboard GLAN2 (Gigabit- LAN) OPROM Configure

Enabling this option provides the capability to boot from GLAN Port 1 or GLAN Port 2. The options are Disabled and Enabled.

Default Primary Video Adapter

This feature allows the user to specify which video adapter to be used as the default primary video adapter--the onboard video adapter or others. The options are Other and Onboard Video.

Emulated IRQ Solutions

The options are Disabled and Enabled.

PCI-Exp. I/O Performance

Some add-on cards perform faster with the coalesce feature, which limits the payload size to 128 Bytes; while others perform faster with a payload size of 256 Bytes which inhibits coalesce features. Please refer to your add-on card user guide for the desired setting. The options are Payload (256 Bytes) and Coalesce Enabled (128 Bytes).

PCI Parity Error Forwarding

The feature allows SERR and PERR errors detected in PCI slots to be sent (forwarded) to the BIOS DMI Event Log for the user to review. The options are Enabled and Disabled.

ROM Scan Ordering

This feature allows the user to decide which Option ROM to be activated fi rst. The options are Onboard first and Add-On fi rst.

Reset Configuration Data

If set to Yes, this setting clears the Extended System Confi guration Data- (ESCD) area. The options are Yes and No.
