When LAN Cable Is Functioning Normally... If no cable problem is detected on the LAN cable connected to a Gigabit hub or a 10/100 Mbps hub, the following message will appear: Start detecting at Port..... Link Detected --> 100Mbps Cable Length= 30m Link Detected Cable Length Displays transmission speed Displays the approximate length of the attached LAN cable. Note: The Gigabit hub will only operate at a speed of 10/100 Mbps in MS-DOS mode; it will operate at a normal speed of 10/100/1000 Mbps in Windows mode or when the LAN Boot ROM is activated. When a Cable Problem Occurs... If a cable problem occurs on a specified pair of wires, the Status field will show Short and then length shown will be the approximate distance to the fault or short. Example: Part1-2 Status = Short / Length = 2m Explanation: A fault or short might occur at about 2m on Part 1-2. Note: Part 4-5 and Part 7-8 are not used in a 10/100 Mbps environment, so their Status fields will show Open, and the length shown is the approximate length of the attached LAN cable. Onboard LAN Boot ROM Allows you to decide whether to activate the boot ROM integrated with the onboard LAN chip. (Default: Disabled) Onboard SATA/IDE Device (GIGABYTE SATA2 Chip) Enables or disables the IDE and SA TA controllers integrated in the GIGABYTE SA TA 2 chip. (Default: Enabled) Onboard SATA/IDE Ctrl Mode (GIGABYTE SATA2 Chip) Enables or disables RAID for the SA TA controller integrated in the GIGABYTE SA TA 2 chip or configures the SATA controller to AHCI mode. IDE Disables RAID for the SATA controller and configures the SATA controller to PATA mode. (Default) AHCI Configures the SATA controller to AHCI mode. Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) is an interface specification that allows the storage driver to enable advanced Serial ATA features such as Native Command Queuing and hot plug. RAID/IDE Enables RAID for the SATA controller. (The IDE controller still operates in P ATA mode) Onboard Serial Port 1 Enables or disables the first serial port and specifies its base I/O address and corresponding interrupt. Options are: Auto, 3F8/IRQ4 (default), 2F8/IRQ3, 3E8/IRQ4, 2E8/IRQ3, Disabled. - 55 - BIOS Setup

BIOS Setup
Link Detected
Displays transmission speed
Cable Length
Displays the approximate length of the attached LAN cable.
Note: The Gigabit hub will only operate at a speed of 10/100 Mbps in MS-DOS mode; it will operate
at a normal speed of 10/100/1000 Mbps in Windows mode or when the LAN Boot ROM is
activated.
When a Cable Problem Occurs...
If a cable problem occurs on a specified pair of wires, the
Status
field will show
Short
and then
length shown will be the approximate distance to the fault or short.
Example:
Part1-2 Status = Short / Length
=
2m
Explanation: A fault or short might occur at about 2m on Part 1-2.
Note: Part 4-5 and Part 7-8 are not used in a 10/100 Mbps environment, so their
Status
fields will
show
Open
, and the length shown is the approximate length of the attached LAN cable.
Onboard LAN Boot ROM
Allows you to decide whether to activate the boot ROM integrated with the onboard LAN chip.
(Default: Disabled)
Onboard SATA/IDE Device (GIGABYTE SATA2 Chip)
Enables or disables the IDE and SATA controllers integrated in the GIGABYTE SATA 2 chip.
(Default: Enabled)
Onboard SATA/IDE Ctrl Mode (GIGABYTE SATA2 Chip)
Enables or disables RAID for the SATA controller integrated in the GIGABYTE SATA 2 chip or
configures the SATA controller to AHCI mode.
IDE
Disables RAID for the SATA controller and configures the SATA controller to
PATA mode. (Default)
AHCI
Configures the SATA controller to AHCI mode. Advanced Host Controller
Interface (AHCI) is an interface specification that allows the storage driver to
enable advanced Serial ATA features such as Native Command Queuing and
hot plug.
RAID/IDE
Enables RAID for the SATA controller. (The IDE controller still operates in PATA
mode)
Onboard Serial Port 1
Enables or disables the first serial port and specifies its base I/O address and corresponding
interrupt. Options are: Auto, 3F8/IRQ4 (default), 2F8/IRQ3, 3E8/IRQ4, 2E8/IRQ3, Disabled.
