BIOS User's Manual

5-22

5-4-1 Optimal Default

The Optimal default settings provide optimum performance
settings for all devices and system features.

5-4-2 Fail-Safe Default

The Fail-Safe default settings consist of the safest set of param-
eters. Use them if the system is behaving erratically. They
should always work but do not provide optimal system perfor-
mance characteristics.
