3-2 BIOS Features Setup
By choosing the BIOS Features Setup option from the CMOS Setup Utility menu
(Figure 3-1), the screen below is displayed. This sample screen contains the manufacturer's
default values for the mainboard.
A. VIRUS PROTECTION
Anti-Virus Protection
This is an anti-virus code incorporated in the mainboard's BIOS firmware. During
the boot-up sequence, BIOS loads before loading of the partition table or boot
sector. The anti-virus code loads with BIOS and is able to detect boot-up viruses
before they have a chance to infect the hard drive. This function employs rule-
based logic that doesn't look for specific viruses but rather detects patterns found
in every virus, eliminating the need to perform periodical version updates after
new viruses have been found.
B. CACHE CONTROL

fields allow you to enable or disable the CPUs Level 1 built-in cache and Level
