The disk drive software monitors the internal performance of the motors, media,
heads and electronics of the drive. The host software monitors the overall reliability
status of the drive. If a device failure is predicted, the host software, through the
Client WORKS S.M.A.R.T applet, warns the user of the impending condition and
advises appropriate action to protect the data.
Report No FDD For WIN 95 [Yes]
Set this item to the default if you are running a system with no floppy drive and using
Windows 95; this ensures compatibility with the Windows 95 logo certification.
Full Screen LOGO Show [Enabled]
When enabled, this will show a full screen company logo on the boot up screen. Select
disabled when you want to show POST messages during boot up.
Small Logo (EPA) Show [Disabled]
Enables or disables the display of the EPA logo during boot.

3.3-3 Advanced Chipset Features

These items define critical timing parameters of the mainboard. You
should leave the items on this page at their default values unless you are
very familiar with the technical specifications of your system hardware.
If you change the values incorrectly, this may cause fatal errors or
instability into your system.

DRAM Timing Selectable [By SPD]
The value in this field depends on performance parameters of the installed memory
chips (DRAM). Do not change the value from the factory setting unless you install
new memory that has a different performance rating than the original DRAMs.
CAS Latency Time [Auto]
When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS latency
depends on the DRAM timing. Do not reset this field from the default value specified
by the system designer.
DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay [Auto]
This field lets you insert a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe signals, used
when DRAM is written to, read from, or refreshed. Disabled gives faster performance;
and Enabled gives more stable performance.
