Award BIOS Setup Utility
CPU Internal Cache and External Cache
These categories speed up the memory access. The default value is
enabled. Enable the External Cache for better performance.
Quick Power On Self Test
This category speeds up Power On Self Test (POST) after you power
on your system. When Enabled, the BIOS will shorten or skip some
check items during POST.
Boot Sequence
This category determines which drive to search first for the disk
operating system. The default is A, C, SCSI. The options are:
A, C, SCSI;
C, A, SCSI;
C, CDROM, A;
CDROM, C, A;
D, A, SCSI;
E, A, SCSI;
F, A, SCSI;
SCSI, A, C;
SCSI, C, A;
C only;
LS/ZIP, C.
Swap Floppy Drive
When this option is enabled and the system is booting from the floppy
drive, the system will boot from drive B instead of drive A. When this
option is disabled and the system is booting from the floppy drive, the
system will boot from drive A. You must have two floppy drives to
use this function.
Boot Up Floppy Seek
When enabled, the BIOS will check whether the floppy disk drive installed
is 40 or 80 tracks. Note that the BIOS cannot distinguish between 720K,
1.2M, 1.44M and 2.88M drive types as they are all 80 tracks. When
disabled, the BIOS will not search for the type of floppy disk drive by
track number. Note that there will not be any warning message if the drive
installed is 360KB.
Boot Up NumLock Status
This allows you to determine the default state of the numeric keypad.
By default, the system boots up with NumLock on wherein the function
of the numeric keypad is the number keys. When set to Off, the
function of the numeric keypad is the arrow keys.
