Advanced Setup

Quick Boot

Set this option to Enabled to instruct AMIBIOS to boot quickly when the computer is
powered on. This option replaces the old Above 1 MB Memory Test Advanced Setup
option. The settings are:

Setting

Description

Disabled

AMIBIOS test all system memory. AMIBIOS waits up to 40
seconds for a READY signal from the IDE hard disk drive.
AMIBIOS waits for .5 seconds after sending a RESET signal
to the IDE drive to allow the IDE drive time to get ready
again. AMIBIOS checks for a <Del> key press and runs
AMIBIOS Setup if the key has been pressed.

Enabled

AMIBIOS does not test system memory above 1 MB.

AMIBIOS does not wait up to 40 seconds for a READY
signal from the IDE hard disk drive. If a READY signal is
not received immediately from the IDE drive, AMIBIOS
does not configure that drive. AMIBIOS does not wait for .5
seconds after sending a RESET signal to the IDE drive to
allow the IDE drive time to get ready again.

You cannot run AMIBIOS Setup at system boot, because
there is no delay for the Hit <Del> to run Setup message.

The Optimal default setting is Enabled and the Fail-Safe default setting is Disabled.

1st Boot Device This option sets the type of device for the first boot drives that the AMIBIOS attempts to

boot from after AMIBIOS POST completes. The settings are Disabled, Floptical,
Floppy, SCSI, IDE-0, IDE-1, IDE-2, IDE-3 or CDROM The Optimal and Fail-Safe
default settings are Floppy.

2nd Boot Device This option sets the type of device for the second boot drives that the AMIBIOS attempts

to boot from after AMIBIOS POST completes. The settings are Disabled, Floppy,
Floptical, IDE-0 or CDROM. The Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings are IDE-0.
