When No LAN Cable Is Attached... If no LAN cable is attached to the motherboard, the Status fields of all four pairs of wires will show Open and the Length fields show 0m, as shown in the figure above. 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 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 LAN1/LAN2 Boot ROM Allows you to decide whether to activate the boot ROM integrated with the onboard LAN chip. (Default: Disabled) Onboard USB3.0 Controller (1st Renesas D720200 USB 3.0 Controller, 5 USB 3.0 Ports on the Back Panel, Not Including the Upper USB 3.0 Port Next to the Audio Jacks) Enables or disables the first Renesas D720200 USB 3.0 controller. (Default: Enabled) USB3.0 Turbo (1st Renesas D720200 USB 3.0 Controller, 5 USB 3.0 Ports on the Back Panel, Not Including the Upper USB 3.0 Port Next to the Audio Jacks) Enables or disables the Turbo USB mode for the first Renesas D720200 USB 3.0 controller. The actual performance may vary depending on the number of devices being installed. (Default: Disabled) Onboard USB3.0 Controller2 (2nd Renesas D720200 USB 3.0 Controller, 4 USB 3.0 Ports on the Front Panel and the Upper USB 3.0 Port Next to the Audio Jacks) Enables or disables the second Renesas D720200 USB 3.0 controller. (Default: Enabled) GSATA3 Controller (Marvell 88SE9128 Chip, GSATA3_6 and GSATA3_7 Connectors) Enables or disables the SATA controller integrated in the Marvell 88SE9128 chip. (Default: Enabled) GSATA3 Ctrl Mode (Marvell 88SE9128 Chip, GSATA3_6 and GSATA3_7 Connectors) Allows you to decide whether to configure the SATA controller integrated in the Marvell 88SE9128 chip to AHCI mode. IDE Configures the SATA controller to IDE 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. - 53 - BIOS Setup

BIOS Setup
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.
Start detecting at Port
.....
Link Detected --> 100Mbps
Cable Length=
30m
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 No LAN Cable Is Attached...
If no LAN cable is attached to the motherboard, the
Status
fields of all four pairs of wires will show
