This parameter enables or disables the Silent Boot function. When set to Enabled, BIOS is in graphical mode and

system prompt (as in DOS) or logo (as in Windows 95). If any error occurred while booting, the system
automatically switches to the text mode.
Even if your setting is Enabled, you may also switch to the text mode while booting by pressing

When set to Disabled, BIOS is in the conventional text mode where you see the system initialization details on the
screen.
The default setting is Disabled.

This parameter allows you to activate the Num Lock function upon booting. The default setting is Enabled.
