3 Award (Phoenix) BIOS can support 3 HDD modes: CHS, LBA and Large. CHS LBA Large For HDD 528MB & Supporting LBA (Logical Block Addressing) For HDD>528MB but not supporting LBA Note: Set to [Auto] , the system can detect the hard disk and select the HDD mode automatically. Suggest you select this option. The SATA Channel information will not be displayed if SATA mode is set to [AHCI] or [RAID]. In these two modes, the hard disk information can be found by getting into Intel® Matrix Storage Manager option ROM utility (or RAID BIOS). We will discuss RAID BIOS later. ► Drive A This option allows you to select which kind of the Floppy Disk Drive is installed in your system. It can be [360KB, 5.25"], [1.2MB, 5.25"], [720KB, 3.5"], [1.44MB, 3.5"] and [2.88 MB, 3.5"]. ► Video The following table is provided for your reference in setting the display mode for your system. EGA/VGA CGA 40 CGA 80 MONO Enhanced Graphics Adapter / Video Graphic Array. For EGA, VGA, SEGA, SVGA, or PGA monitor adapters. Color Graphic Adapter, powering up in 40 column mode. Color Graphic Adapter, powering up in 80 column mode. Monochrome adapter, including high resolution monochrome adapters. ► Halt On This category determines whether or not the computer will stop if an error is detected during powering up. All Errors Whenever the BIOS detects a nonfatal error, the system will stop and you will be prompted. No Errors The system boot will not stop for any errors that may be detected. All, But Keyboard The system boot will not stop for a keyboard error; but it will stop for all other errors. All, But Diskette The system boot will not stop for a diskette error; but it will stop for all other errors. All, But Disk/Key The system boot will not stop for a keyboard or disk error, but it will stop for all other errors. ► BIOS ID This item shows the information of the BIOS ID. ► Base/Extended/Total Memory These are Display-Only information of the system memory, determined by POST(Power On Self Test) of the BIOS. 25
