3.1.10 Boot Options

Booting from CD-ROM is supported in adherence to the "El Torito" bootable CD-ROM format
specification developed by Phoenix Technologies and IBM. Under the Boot Options field in
Setup, CD-ROM is one of four possible boot devices, which are defined in priority order. The
default settings are:
First boot device - Removable devices (floppy drive)
Second boot device - Hard drive
Third boot device - CD-ROM
Fourth boot device - Network
If you select CD-ROM as the boot device, it must be the first device.
NOTE
A copy of the "El Torito" specification is available on the Phoenix Web site
http://www.ptltd.com/techs/specs.html.
In Setup you can also select the network as a boot device, which allows booting from a network
add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed.

3.1.11 OEM Logo or Scan Area

The motherboard supports a 4 KB programmable Flash user area at memory location
E8000-E8FFF. You can use this area to display a custom OEM logo during POST, or can insert a
binary image that executes at certain times during the POST. A utility is available from Intel to
assist with installing a logo into Flash for display during POST.

3.1.12 USB Support

The USB connector on the motherboard allows you to attach any of several USB devices as they
become available. Typically, the device driver for USB devices will be managed by the OS.
However, because keyboard and mouse support may be needed in the Setup program before the OS
boots, the BIOS supports USB legacy keyboards and mice. You can disable this support if
necessary.

3.1.13 BIOS Setup Access Jumper

You can move the Setup Access jumper on the motherboard to enable or disable access to the
Setup program. The default is for access to be enabled. See Section 1.13.4 for the specific pins on
which to place the jumper.
