Link Detected Cable Length Displays transmission speed Displays the approximate length of the attached LAN cable. Note: The Gigabit hub will only operate at a speed of 10/100 Mbps in MS-DOS mode; it will operate at a normal speed of 10/100/1000 Mbps in Windows mode or when the LAN Boot ROM is activated. When a Cable Problem Occurs... If a cable problem occurs on a specified pair of wires, the Status field will show Short and then length shown will be the approximate distance to the fault or short. Example: Part1-2 Status = Short / Length = 2m Explanation: A fault or short might occur at about 2m on Part 1-2. Note: Part 4-5 and Part 7-8 are not used in a 10/100 Mbps environment, so their Status fields will show Open, and the length shown is the approximate length of the attached LAN cable. Onboard LAN Boot ROM Allows you to decide whether to activate the boot ROM integrated with the onboard LAN chip. (Default: Disabled) Onboard SATA/IDE Device (GIGABYTE SATA2 Chip) Enables or disables the IDE and SATA controllers integrated in the GIGABYTE SATA2 chip. (Default: Enabled) Onboard SATA/IDE Ctrl Mode (GIGABYTE SATA2 Chip) Enables or disables RAID for the SATA controller integrated in the GIGABYTE SATA2 chip or configures the SATA controller to AHCI mode. IDE Disables RAID for the SATA controller and configures the SATA controller to PATA mode. (Default) AHCI Configures the SATA controller to AHCI mode. Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) is an interface specification that allows the storage driver to enable advanced Serial ATA features such as Native Command Queuing and RAID/IDE hot plug. Enables RAID for the SATA controller. (The IDE controller still operates in PATA mode) - 61 - BIOS Setup
