AWARD BIOS SETUP
AP-370VF/F / 50
Resources Controlled By :
The defaults setting is “Auto” which will control all IRQs and
DMAs automatically. The other option is “Manual” which allows you to control IRQs and
DMAs individually.
Reset Configuration Data :
The default setting is “Disabled”. When set to “Enabled”,
the content of the ESCD block in flash BIOS will be cleared.
IRQ Assigned to and DMA Assigned to :
If there is a legacy ISA device which uses an
IRQ or a DMA, set the corresponding IRQ or DMA to “ Legacy ISA”; otherwise you
should set to PCI/ISA PnP.
Used MEM base addr :
Because BIOSes fail to auto detect some specific ISA Legacy
cards with requested memory space below 1M address, we have added the “Used MEM
base addr” and “Used MEM Length” to support such kind of cards. Now, with these two
functions, users can define where the used memory address is located and its length of
the legacy area correspondingly. Based on this, BIOS will skip the UMB area that is
used by the legacy device to avoid the memory space conflict. For example, if the user
select “D000” for “Used MEM base addr” and “16K” for “Used MEM Length” that means
the address region D0000H-D3FFFH is occupied by ISA legacy cards, and BIOS will not
assign this region for PnP/ISA and PCI cards.
Assign IRQ For USB :
To use USB feature, set the IRQ to “Enabled”. The default
setting is “Enabled”.
