BIOS and Setup Program 3.1.10 Boot Options Booting from CD-ROM is supported in adherence to the "El Torito" bootable CD-ROM format specification developed by Phoenix Technologies and IBM. Under the Boot Options field in Setup, CD-ROM is one of four possible boot devices, which are defined in priority order. The default settings are: • First boot device - Removable devices (floppy drive) • Second boot device - Hard drive • Third boot device - CD-ROM • Fourth boot device - Network If you select CD-ROM as the boot device, it must be the first device.  NOTE A copy of the "El Torito" specification is available on the Phoenix Web site http://www.ptltd.com/techs/specs.html. In Setup you can also select the network as a boot device, which allows booting from a network add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed. 3.1.11 OEM Logo or Scan Area The motherboard supports a 4 KB programmable Flash user area at memory location E8000-E8FFF. You can use this area to display a custom OEM logo during POST, or can insert a binary image that executes at certain times during the POST. A utility is available from Intel to assist with installing a logo into Flash for display during POST. 3.1.12 USB Support The USB connector on the motherboard allows you to attach any of several USB devices as they become available. Typically, the device driver for USB devices will be managed by the OS. However, because keyboard and mouse support may be needed in the Setup program before the OS boots, the BIOS supports USB legacy keyboards and mice. You can disable this support if necessary. 3.1.13 BIOS Setup Access Jumper You can move the Setup Access jumper on the motherboard to enable or disable access to the Setup program. The default is for access to be enabled. See Section 1.13.4 for the specific pins on which to place the jumper. 57
