Explanation
Floppy disk
controller
Used to configure the floppy disk controller. The options available
are:
•

•

. You are going to configure the port (by completing
the following fields).
•

. The port is configured automatically by the BIOS or the
operating system.
OS Controlled
is displayed if configuration of the port is
controlled by the operating system.
IDE Controller
Choose whether to enable or disable the IDE controller. This
should be
Enabled
for CompactFlash
®
boot, even if the onboard
IDE is not being used.
Local Bus IDE
adapter
Choose which IDE adapter (or adapters) is to be enabled. You
can select
Primary
channel, the
Secondary
channel,
Both
or
neither (choose
Disabled
).
The APOLLO supports only a single IDE hard drive connection,
which is the primary IDE adapter. However, the secondary IDE
adapter must be enabled for the CompactFlash boot functionality
to operate correctly. This means that, for correct operation of the
CompactFlash boot feature, you should ensure that the
secondary IDE adapter is enabled (i.e. that you select either
Secondary
or
Both
).
AC97 Audio
Choose whether to enable or disable the onboard AC97 audio
device.
