CPU L1 & L2 Cache Internal Cache / External Cache
This BIOS setting can be used to enable or disable the CPU’s L1 (primary) and
L2 (secondary) cache.
Quick Power On Self Test
If enabled the amount of time required to run the power-on self-test (POST)
will decrease. A quick POST skips certain steps. We recommend that you
disable quick POST. It is better to find a problem during POST than to lose data
during your work.
First / Second / Third Boot Device
These fields allow you to decide the boot sequence of your bootable devices
such as Floppy Drive, Hard Drive, CD ROM...etc

This field allows you to decide which errors, detected during the Power On Self
Test (POST), will halt the system.
Base Memory / Extended Memory / Total Memory
This field displays the amount of memory detected by the system during boot
up. This is a display only field. You cannot make any changes to this field.
Base Memory: Indicates the memory installed below the conventional
1MB space.
Extended Memory: Indicates the memory installed above the 1MB space.
Total Memory: Indicates the total memory installed in the PC system.
Virus Warning
When you enable the virus warning you will receive a warning message
whenever a program (specifically, a virus) attempts to write to the boot sector
or the partition table of the hard disk drive. If you receive such a message you
should immediately run an anti-virus program. Keep in mind that this feature
only protects the boot sector and not the entire hard drive.
