Table 3-6 Computer Setup-Advanced (for advanced users) (continued) Bus Options On some models, allows you to enable or disable: ● PCI SERR# Generation. Default is enabled. ● PCI VGA Palette Snooping, which sets the VGA palette snooping bit in PCI configuration space; only needed when more than one graphics controller is installed. Default is disabled. Device Options Allows you to set: ● Monitor Tracking (enable/disable). Allows ROM to save monitor asset information. Default is disabled. ● Printer mode (Bi-Directional, EPP + ECP, Output Only). Default is EPP+ECP. ● Num Lock State at Power-On (off/on). Default is off. ● Integrated Video (enable/disable). Use this option to disable the integrated video controller when another video controller is present in the system. Default is enabled. ● Internal Speaker (some models) (does not affect external speakers). Default is enabled. ● NIC Option ROM Download (PXE, iSCSI, disabled). The BIOS contains an embedded NIC option ROM to allow the unit to boot through the network to a PXE server. This is typically used to download a corporate image to a hard drive. The NIC option ROM takes up memory space below 1MB commonly referred to as DOS Compatibility Hole (DCH) space. This space is limited. This F10 option will allow users to disable the downloading of this embedded NIC option ROM thus giving more DCH space for additional PCI cards which may need option ROM space. The default will be to have the NIC option-ROM-enabled. Default is PXE. ● SATA RAID Option ROM Download (enable/disable). The BIOS contains an embedded SATA RAID option ROM for RAID support. This can be temporarily disabled to save DCH space. Note that with the option ROM disabled, users will be unable to boot to hard drives in the system while running in RAID mode. Default is disabled. ● Multi-Processor (enable/disable). Use this option to disable multi-processor support under the OS. Default is enabled. ● Hyper threading (enable/disable) (some models). Use this option to disable processor hyperthreading. ● Turbo Mode (enable/disable). Allows you to enable and disable the Intel Turbo Mode feature, which allows one core of the system to run at a higher than standard frequency and power if other cores are idle. Default is enabled. 28 Chapter 3 Computer Setup (F10) Utility
