MAINBOARD BIOS SETUP

BIOS, Driver & Utility Guide

capability is specifically designed for a Plug and Play operating system such as
Windows



95. Choices are

Auto

and

Manual

Reset Configuration Data

- Reset Configuration Data: When set to Enabled,

ESCD (Extended System Configuration Data) is cleared. This setting will
automatically be set back to Disabled when the system reboots.

Enabled

and

Disabled

IRQ3/4/5/7/9/10/11/12/14/15, DMA0/1/3/5/6/7 assigned to

–

These options are

available when the above

Resources Controlled by

option is set to

Manual

. By

default, all resources are assigned to the PCI Bus. If an ISA card requires a
particular IRQ or DMA channel, those resources should be set to Legacy ISA so
that the PCI Bus will not try to use them. Choices are

Legacy ISA

and

PCI/ISA

PnP

Used MEM base address -

This item allows you to determine which basic

addresses are not to be occupied by PCI Card and leave these addresses for some
special ISA Card used only. This option is available when the

Resources

Controlled by

option is set to

Manual

Choices are C800, CC00, D000, D400, D800, DC00.

Used MEM length -

Select a length for the memory area specified in the previous

field. This field does not appear if no base address is specified. Options are 8K,
16K, 32K, 64K.

SYMBIOS SCSI BIOS -

When set to

Auto

(Default), the system will

automatically sense the presence of any SCSI adapter that uses a Symbios
SYM53C8XX SCSI chip:

If the SCSI adapter installed

has

its own

BIOS on board:

The on-board SCSI BIOS will not be loaded.
The adapter’s own SCSI BIOS will be used.

If the SCSI adapter installed

doesn’t have

its own BIOS and the card uses or is
compatible with the SYM53C8XX chip:

The on-board SCSI BIOS will load and
control the SCSI adapter.

*Disabling

the onboard SCSI BIOS prevents it from being active in any way.

Onboard Sound

Chip

– Enabling this option allows the system to use the onboard

ESS Solo-1 PCI sound chip. If you want to use an add-on audio card instead, set
this option to disabled to avoid possible conflict.
