Boot Up NumLock Status
This allows you to determine the default state of the numeric keypad.
By default, the system boots up with NumLock on wherein the function
of the numeric keypad is the number keys. When set to Off, the
function of the numeric keypad is the arrow keys.
Typematic Rate Setting
When disabled, continually holding down a key on your keyboard will
cause the BIOS to report that the key is down. When the typematic
rate is enabled, the BIOS will not only report that the key is down,
but will first wait for a moment, and, if the key is still down, it will begin
to report that the key has been depressed repeatedly. For example,
you would use such a feature to accelerate cursor movements with
the arrow keys.
Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec)
This selection allows you to select the rate at which the keys are
accelerated.
Typematic Delay (Msec)
This selection allows you to select the delay between when the key
was first depressed and when the acceleration begins.
