system memory - See RAM. System Setup program - A BIOS-based program that allows you to configure your system's hardware and customize the system's operation by setting features such as password protection. Because the System Setup program is stored in NVRAM, any settings remain in effect until you change them again. system.ini file - A start-up file for the Windows operating system. When you start Windows, it consults the system.ini file to determine a variety of options for the Windows operating environment. Among other things, the system.ini file records which video, mouse, and keyboard drivers are installed for Windows. TCP/IP - Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. termination - Some devices (such as the last device at each end of a SCSI cable) must be terminated to prevent reflections and spurious signals in the cable. When such devices are connected in a series, you may need to enable or disable the termination on these devices by changing jumper or switch settings on the devices or by changing settings in the configuration software for the devices. TOE - TCP/IP offload engine. UNIX - Universal Internet Exchange. UNIX, the precursor to Linux, is an operating system written in the C programming language. uplink port - A port on a network hub or switch used to connect to other hubs or switches without requiring a crossover cable. UPS - Uninterruptible power supply. A battery-powered unit that automatically supplies power to your system in the event of an electrical failure. USB - Universal Serial Bus. A USB connector provides a single connection point for multiple USB-compliant devices, such as mice and keyboards. USB devices can be connected and disconnected while the system is running. utility - A program used to manage system resources-memory, disk drives, or printers, for example. UTP - Unshielded twisted pair. A type of wiring used to connect systems in a business or home to a telephone line. V - Volt(s). VAC - Volt(s) alternating current. VDC - Volt(s) direct current. VGA - Video graphics array. VGA and SVGA are video standards for video adapters with greater resolution and color display capabilities than previous standards. video adapter - The logical circuitry that provides (in combination with the monitor) your system's video capabilities. A video adapter may be integrated into the system 174 Glossary

UPS
— Uninterruptible power supply. A battery-powered unit that automatically
supplies power to your system in the event of an electrical failure.
USB
— Universal Serial Bus. A USB connector provides a single connection point for
multiple USB-compliant devices, such as mice and keyboards. USB devices can be
connected and disconnected while the system is running.
utility
— A program used to manage system resources—memory, disk drives, or
printers, for example.

— Unshielded twisted pair. A type of wiring used to connect systems in a
business or home to a telephone line.
V
— Volt(s).
VAC
