Award BIOS Setup Utility
CPU L1 Cache and CPU L2 Cache
These fields speed up the memory access. The default setting is
enabled. Enable the external cache for better performance.
CPU L2 Cache ECC Checking
The processors supported by the system board come with built-in
Level 2 cache. By default, ECC is enabled to check the Level 2 cache.
If you are not using this function, set this field to Disabled.
Processor Serial Number
This field will appear only when you are using Intels Pentium
III or
later processor. These processors come with an individual
"processor serial number" which by default is activated. Therefore,
when connected to the Internet, the processor transmits the serial
number online making it possible to track your online activity. The
field provides you the option of disabling this function.
Quick Power On Self Test
This field speeds up Power On Self Test (POST) after you power on
your system. When Enabled, the BIOS will shorten or skip some check
items during POST.
Boot Sequence
This field determines which drive to search first for the disk operating
system. The default is A, C, SCSI. The options are:
A, C, SCSI;
C, A, SCSI;
C, CDROM, A;
CDROM, C, A;
D, A, SCSI;
E, A, SCSI;
F, A, SCSI;
SCSI, A, C;
SCSI, C, A;
C only;
LS/ZIP, C.
Swap Floppy Drive
When this field is enabled and the system is booting from the floppy
drive, the system will boot from drive B instead of drive A. When this
field is disabled and the system is booting from the floppy drive, the
system will boot from drive A. You must have two floppy drives to
use this function.
