IV. BIOS SOFTWARE DMA x Used By ISA (No/ICU) These fields indicate whether or not the displayed DMA channel for each field is being used by a legacy (non-PnP) ISA card. Available options include: No/ICU and Yes. The first option, the default setting, indicates either that the displayed DMA channel is not used or an ICU is being used to determine if an ISA card is using that channel. If you install a legacy ISA card that requires a unique DMA channel, and you are not using an ICU, you must set the field for that channel to Yes. ISA MEM Block BASE (No/ICU) This field allows you to set the base address and block size of a legacy ISA card that uses any memory segment within the C800 and DC00 address range. If you have such a card, and you are not using an ICU to specify its address range, select a base address from the six available options; the ISA MEM Block SIZE field will then appear for selecting the block size. If you have more than one legacy ISA card in your system that requires to use this address range, you can increase the block size to either 8K, 16K, 32K, or 64K. If you are using an ICU to accomplish this task, leave ISA MEM Block BASE to its default setting of No/ICU. Symbios SCSI BIOS (Auto) Auto allows the BIOS to detect whether you have a Symbios SCSI card, if detected the onboard Symbios BIOS will be enabled, if not then it will be disabled. Disabled prevents the onboard Symbios BIOS to be enabled so that the external Symbios SCSI card's own BIOS can be used instead. Note: If your Symbios SCSI card does not have a BIOS the Symbios SCSI card will not function. USB IRQ (Enabled) Enabled reserves an IRQ# for the USB to work, Disabled does not allow the USB to have an IRQ# and therefore prevents the USB from functioning. If you do not use USB devices, you may Disable this feature to save an extra IRQ# for expansion cards. TV Standard Select (NTSC) This allows you to select the video standard for your country. Select either NTSC or PAL if using the TV-Out feature on this motherboard. ONB VGA BIOS First (No) This allows you to select whether you want to use the onboard VGA BIOS as the primary BIOS. No allows external VGA cards to take precedent when detected. Yes always uses the onboard VGA card's BIOS, even when an external VGA card is installed. Onboard Audio Chip (Enabled) This field allows you to enable the onboard audio. If you do not want to use the onboard audio, select Disabled. Use the following table for system resource allocation if conflicts occur with your onboard audio. IV. BIOS Plug & Play / PCI ASUS P2L-VM/P2E-VM User's Manual 53
