Swap Floppy Drive (Disabled)
If you have two floppy diskette drives in your system, this item allows you to swap
the assigned drive letters so that drive A becomes drive B, and drive B becomes drive
A.
Boot Up Floppy Seek (Disabled)
If this item is enabled, it checks the size of the floppy disk drives at startup time. You
don't need to enable this item unless you have a legacy diskette drive with 360K
capacity.
Boot Up NumLock Status (On)
This item defines if the keyboard Num Lock key is active when your system is
started.
Gate A20 Option (Fast)
This item defines how the system handles legacy software that was written for an
earlier generation of processors. Leave this item at the default value.
Typematic Rate Setting (Disabled)
If this item is enabled, you can use the following two items to set the typematic rate
and the typematic delay settings for your keyboard.
Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec):
Use this item to define how many characters per second are generated by a held-down
key.
Typematic Delay (Msec):
Use this item to define how many milliseconds must elapse before a held-down key
begins generating repeat characters.
Security Option (Setup)
If you have installed password protection, this item defines if the password is required
at system start up, or if it is only required when a user tries to enter the Setup Utility.
APIC Mode (Enabled)
This item allows you to enable or disable the APIC (Advanced Programmable
Interrupt Controller) mode. APIC provides symmetric multi-processing (SMP) for
systems, allowing support for up to 60 processors.
