4350 Systems User±s Guide
3DUDOOHO±0RGH±
Parallel Mode
controls whether the system±s built-in parallel port acts as an
AT-compatible (unidirectional) or PS/2-compatible (bidirectional) port.
Set
Parallel Mode
according to the type of peripheral device connected to the parallel
port. To determine the correct mode to use, see the documentation that came with
the device.
’LVNHWWH±
Diskette
controls the operation of the system±s built-in diskette drive controller.
With
Auto
(the default) selected, the system turns off the built-in diskette drive con-
troller when necessary to accommodate a controller card installed in an expansion
slot.
With
Write Protect
selected, nothing can be written to diskette drives using the
system±s built-in diskette drive controller. (The system can still read from the drives.)
When this option is selected, the
Auto
option (whereby the system turns off the
built-in diskette drive controller as necessary) is also in effect.
Selecting
Off
turns off the built-in diskette controller; this option is used primarily for
troubleshooting purposes.
6SHDNHU±
Speaker
controls the built-in speaker. The default is
On.
Rebooting the system is
required for a change to take effect.
3ULPDU\±6&6,±DQG±6HFRQGDU\±6&6,
Primary SCSI
and
Secondary SCSI
turn the respective SCSI controller on or off.
Selecting
On
(the default option) enables the built-in PCI SCSI controller and scans
the associated read-only memory (ROM). For the system to boot from a drive
attached to the built-in SCSI controller, the drive must be enabled. Selecting
Off
causes the BIOS to mask the presence of a device.
6\VWHP±’DWD±
The following fields, which are not selectable, display information about the system:
²
The processor line displays the microprocessor type and speed.
²
Level 2 Cache
displays the size of the integrated cache (512 kilobytes [KB]).
²
System Memory
indicates the entire amount of installed memory detected in
your system, except for memory on Expanded Memory Specification (EMS)
expansion cards. After adding memory, check
System Memory
to confirm that
the new memory is installed correctly and is recognized by the system.
