BIOS
PCI IDE Bus Master
Set this option to Enabled to specify that the IDE controller on the PCI
bus has bus mastering capability. The settings are Disabled or Enabled.
The Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings are Disabled.
Offboard PCI IDE Card
This option specifies if an offboard PCI IDE controller adapter card is
used in the computer. You must also specify the PCI expansion slot on
the motherboard where the offboard PCI IDE controller card is in-
stalled. If an offboard PCI IDE controller is used, the motherboard
onboard IDE controller is automatically disabled. The settings are
Disabled, Auto, Slot1, Slot2, Slot3, Slot4, Slot5, or Slot6. If Auto is
selected, AMIBIOS automatically determines the correct setting. The
Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings are Auto. This option forces IRQ
14 and 15 to a PCI slot on the PCI local bus. This is necessary to
support non-compliant PCI IDE adapter cards.
Offboard PCI IDE Primary IRQ
This option specifies the PCI interrupt used by the primary IDE
channel on the offboard PCI IDE controller. The settings are Disabled,
Hardwired, INTA, INTB, INTC, or INTD. The Optimal and Fail-Safe
default settings are Disabled.
Offboard PCI IDE Secondary IRQ
This option specifies the PCI interrupt used by the secondary IDE
channel on the offboard PCI IDE controller. The settings are Disabled,
Hardwired, INTA, INTB, INTC, or INTD. The Optimal and Fail-Safe
settings are Disabled.
PCI Slot1 IRQ Priority, PCI Slot2 IRQ Priority, PCI Slot3 IRQ
Priority, and PCI Slot4 IRQ Priority
These options specify the IRQ priority for PCI devices installed in the
PCI expansion slots. The settings are Auto, (IRQ) 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, and
11, in order of priority. The Optimal and Fail-Safe default settings are
Auto.
