User's Manual
20
Large - for IDE drives that do not support LBA and have more than 1024
cylinders. Try this setting if your hard disk does not operate properly with
the LBA setting. Large mode is not supported by all operating systems, i.e.,
only certain versions of DOS support large mode.
LBA - (Large/Logical Block Addressing) With LBA, the IDE controller
transforms the data address described by sector, head, and cylinder number
into a physical block address, significantly improving data transfer rates. This
mode is for drives with greater than 1024 cylinders and between 528MB and
8.4GB in size. This protocol is the current common standard.
Choose None for Type if there are no IDE HDD devices in your system.
@
You can use the IDE HDD Auto Detection function to auto detect your hard
drive parameters. Using this function will automatically insert the parameters
discussed under Hard Disk Setup and will indicate User for the Field value.
Please see Section 3-9 for more information.
Floppy Disk Drives
Choose the memory capacity and disk size that corresponds with that of your floppy
disk drive(s).
Video
Select the type of video adapter present in your system. You can ignore this setting
if you are using a VGA monitor since VGA BIOS automatically configures this setting.
Halt
When the system is powered on, BIOS performs a series of diagnotic tests called
POST (Power On Self Test). This function stops the computer if BIOS detects a
hardware error. You can tell BIOS to halt on all errors, no errors, or not to halt on
specific errors.
