Table 6 Computer Setup-Advanced (for advanced users) (continued) ● Remote wakeup boot source (remote server/local hard drive). ● After Power Loss (off/on/previous state): Setting this option to: ● Off-causes the computer to remain powered off when power is restored. ● On-causes the computer to power on automatically as soon as power is restored. ● On-allows you to power on the computer using a power strip switch, if the computer is connected to an electric power strip. ● Previous state-causes the computer to power on automatically as soon as power is restored, if it was on when power was lost. NOTE: If you turn off power to the computer using the switch on a power strip, you will not be able to use the suspend/sleep feature or the Remote Management features. ● POST Delay (None, 5, 10 15, or 20 seconds). Enabling this feature will add a user-specified delay to the POST process. This delay is sometimes needed for hard disks on some PCI cards that spin up very slowly, so slowly that they are not ready to boot by the time POST is finished. The POST delay also gives you more time to select F10 to enter Computer (F10) Setup. ● Limit CPUID Maximum Value to 3. Restricts the number of CPUID functions reported by the microprocessor. Enable this feature if booting to Windows NT. Execute Memory Test Restarts the computer and executes the POST memory test. (some models) BIOS Power-On Allows you to set the computer to turn on automatically at a time you specify. Onboard Devices PCI Devices Allows you to set resources for or disable onboard system devices (diskette controller, serial port, or parallel port). ● Lists currently installed PCI devices and their IRQ settings. ● Allows you to reconfigure IRQ settings for these devices or to disable them entirely. These settings have no effect under an ACPI-based operating system. PCI VGA Configuration Displayed only if there are multiple PCI video adapters in the system. Allows you to specify which VGA controller will be the "boot" or primary VGA controller. NOTE: In order to see this entry, you must enable Integrated Video (Advanced > Device Options) and Save Changes and Exit. Bus Options Device Options On some models, allows you to enable or disable: ● PCI SERR# Generation. ● PCI VGA palette snooping, which sets the VGA palette snooping bit in PCI configuration space; only needed when more than one graphics controller is installed. Allows you to set: ● Printer mode (Bi-Directional, EPP + ECP, Output Only). ● Num Lock state at power-on (off/on). ENWW Computer Setup (F10) Utilities 11

●
Off—causes the computer to remain powered off when power is restored.
●
On—causes the computer to power on automatically as soon as power is restored.
●
On—allows you to power on the computer using a power strip switch, if the computer is
connected to an electric power strip.
●
Previous state—causes the computer to power on automatically as soon as power is
restored, if it was on when power was lost.

If you turn off power to the computer using the switch on a power strip, you will not
be able to use the suspend/sleep feature or the Remote Management features.
