Description
Disabled
AMIBIOS test all system memory. AMIBIOS waits up
to 40 seconds for a READY signal from the IDE hard

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.

AMIBIOS does not wait for .5 seconds after sending
