Memory Configuration and BIOS Settings 6-9
Quick Power
On Self Test
If this is enabled, BIOS will shorten or skip some check
items during Power On Self Test (POST) to speed up the
process.

the disk operating system. Default setting is:
A, C, SCSI. BIOS also supports system bootup from
CD-ROM drive or SCSI hard disk drive.

When this is enabled, the BIOS will swap floppy drive
assignments so that Drive A: will function as Drive B: and
Drive B: as Drive A:.

Gate A20
Option
Allows you to specify how the gate A20 is handled. The
gate A20 is a device used to address memory above 1 MB.
Initially, the gate A20 was handled via a pin on the
keyboard. Today, while keyboards still provide this
support, it is more common and much faster for the
motherboard’s chipset to provide support for gate A20.
For the chipset to do this, set this item to Fast.
Typematic
Rate Setting
Determines if the typematic rate to be used. When this
setting is disabled, holding down a key on your keyboard
will generate only one instance of the corresponding
character or movement (for arrow keys). When this
setting is enabled, holding down a key will generate the
character or movement repeatedly. For example, you can
use this feature to accelerate cursor movements with the
arrow keys.
Typematic
Rate
(Chars/Sec)
When the Typematic Rate Setting (see description above)
is enabled, this item allows you to specify the speed at
which the characters or movements are repeated when
you hold down a key.
