Typematic Delay (Msec)
This field sets the time interval for displaying the first and second characters Four delay
rate options are available: 250, 500, 750, and 1000.
Security Option
When you specify a Supervisor Password and/or User Password (explained later in this
section), the Security Option field determines when the system prompts for the password.
The default setting is Setup, where the system goes through its start-up routine unless the
Setup utility is called, then the system prompts for the Supervisor Password. The other
option is System, where the system prompts for the User Password every time you start
your system.

Report No FDD For WIN 95/98
Windows will release IRQ line 6 (normally used by the Floppy Disk Drive) after you disable
your onboard FDD and set this field to “YES”. If you set this field to “NO”, the windows will
reserve INT6 for your FDD.
Video BIOS Shadow
This field allows you to change the video BIOS location from ROM to RAM. Relocating to
RAM enhances system performance, as information access is faster than the ROM.
C8000-CBFFF to DC000-DFFFF
These fields are used for shadowing other expansion card ROMs. If you install other ex-
pansion cards with ROMs on them, you will need to know which addresses the ROMs use
to shadow them specifically. Shadowing a ROM reduces the memory available between
640K and 1024K by the amount used for this purpose.
