Start Options
The start options are settings that affect the way your computer acts when started.
Startup Sequence
This setting controls which devices your computer will attempt to read data from when it is
started.
Your computer can be started from several devices, including the hard disk drive, diskette
drive, and CD-ROM drive. The startup program looks for these devices in a selected
sequence. The startup sequence on your computer is preset from the factory to have the
computer start up from a CD-ROM, diskette, or hard disk. This startup sequence allows you
to start the diagnostic and recovery programs from the Product Recovery and Diagnostics
CD, use emergency diskettes to recover from a startup failure, and start from your hard disk
for normal day-to-day operation. In order to boot from the CD-ROM, place CD Drive before
HDD in the boot sequence list.
Virus Warning
This setting determines if the BIOS will monitor the boot sector and partition table of the hard
disk drive for any attempt at modification. If any attempt is made, the BIOS will halt the
system and an error message will appear.
Afterwards, if necessary, you will be able to run an anti-virus program to locate and remove
the problem before any damage is done.
Enabled Activates automatically when the system boots up causing a warning message
to appear when anything attempts to access the boot sector or hard disk
partition table.
Disabled No warning message will appear when anything attempts to access the boot
sector or hard disk partition table.
Note: Many disk diagnostic programs that attempt to access the boot sector table can
cause the above warning message. If you are running such a program, you can
avoid the virus warning by disabling the virus protection before you run the program.
After running the program, remember to re-enable virus protection.
Quick Power-On Self Test
This setting causes the computer to run a shortened power-on self test (POST). The
shortened POST takes less time to complete, but does not test the computer as thoroughly
as the normal POST.
Enabled Enable quick POST
Disabled Normal POST
