<Enter>, you can select the HDD using the <PageUp>/<PageDn> or Up/Down
arrow keys, and change the HDD priority using <+> or <->. To exit this option,
press <Esc>.
Virus Warning (Default: Disabled)
This option is used to set up the virus warning message for the IDE HDD boot
sector. When enabled, a warning message will appear on the screen if any

Note: Such function provides protection to the startup sector only; it does not
protect the entire hard disk.

This option is used to turn on or off the CPU L1 and L2 cache. The available
setting values are: Disabled and Enabled. Leave this item at the default value
for better performance.
External Cache (Default: Enabled)
This option is used to turn on or off the CPU external cache. The available
setting values are: Disabled and Enabled. Leave this item at the default value
for better performance.
Quick Power On Self Test (Default: Enabled)
With this function enabled, the system will skip the normal test while start-
ing up, therefore shortening the overall startup time. The available setting
