Choice
Gate A20 option
Gate A20 refers to the way the system addresses
memory above 1 MB (extended memory).
When set to Fast, the system chipset controls
Gate A20. When set to Normal, a pin in the
keyboard controller controls Gate A20. Setting
Gate A20 to Fast improves system speed,
particularly with OS/2 and Windows
Typematic Rate Setting
When Disabled, the following two items
(Typematic Rate and Typematic Delay) are
irrelevant. Keystrokes repeat at a rate
determined by the keyboard controller in your
system. When Enabled, you can select a
typematic rate and typematic delay.
Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec)
When the typematic rate setting is enabled, you
can select a typematic rate (the rate at which
character repeats when you hold down a key) of
6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24 or 30 characters per
second.
Typematic Delay (Msec)
When the typematic rate setting is enabled, you
can select a typematic delay (the delay before
key strokes begin to repeat) of 250, 500, 750 or
1000 milliseconds.
