Integrated
SCSI
Controller
Lets you configure the settings for the SCSI
controller and any attached SCSI devices.
Integrated SCSI
: The integrated SCSI ASIC has two
controllers and this enables or disables both at the
same time. You cannot disable just one SCSI
controller.
Option ROM Scan
: Enable this option if the SCSI
device is used to boot the operating system. If too
many option ROMs are enabled, some may not load
due to insufficient available shadow memory. Always
disable any that aren’t needed.
Enable Master
: The BIOS normally leaves Bus
Mastering disabled, and the Operating System
enables it when starting. Set this field to
Enabled
if
you have a bus-mastering device and the device
driver cannot enable bus mastering by itself.
Latency Timer
: This field sets the minimum
guaranteed time slice allotted for bus master,
expressed in PCI bus clock cycles. The bigger the
value, the greater the share of the bus to the device.
Integrated
Network
Interface
Lets you configure the settings for the integrated
10/100BT network interface. These fields are
identical to the Integrated SCSI Controller fields
listed above.
Integrated
USB
Lets you configure the settings for the integrated
USB interface. These fields are identical to the
Integrated SCSI Controller fields listed above except
there is no Option ROM Scan.
