The Choices: AGP
(default), PCI Slot.
IDE HDD Block Mode
Block mode is also called block transfer, multiple commands, or multiple sector read / write.
If your IDE hard drive supports block mode (most new drives do), select Enabled for
automatic detection of the optimal number of block mode (most new drives do), select
Enabled for automatic detection of the optimal number of block read / write per sector
where the drive can support.
The Choices: Enabled
(default), Disabled.
Delay For HDD Detect
Some old hard disk drive need much time to wait it ready, if your hard disk drive can not
been detected try to set this item to enable.
The Choices: Disabled
(Default), Enabled.
Onboard I/O Chip Setup
Press Enter to configure Super IO device.
Onboard FDC Controller
Select Enabled if your system has a floppy disk controller (FDC) installed on the
system board and you wish to use it. If install and FDC or the system has no
floppy drive, select Disabled in this field.
The Choices: Enabled
(default), Disabled.
Onboard Serial Port 1
Select an address and corresponding interrupt for the first and second serial ports.
The Choices: 3F8/IRQ4
(default), Disabled, Auto,
2F8/IRQ3,
3E8/IRQ4, 2E8/IRQ3.
Onboard Serial Port 2
Select an address and corresponding interrupt for the first and second serial ports
The Choices:
2F8/IRQ3
(default), Disabled, Auto, 3F8/IRQ4
,
3E8/IRQ4, 2E8/IRQ3.
