Processor Number Feature
Each Pentium-III processor cartridge is installed with a unique processor number.
This number may be used for verification in internet transactions and e-
commerce. If you prefer not to use or distribute the unique processor number,
use this item to suppress the processor number.
Quick Power On Self Test
You can enable this item to shorten the power on testing and have your system
start up a little faster. You might like to enable this item after you are confident
that your system hardware is operating smoothly.
Boot From LAN First
Enable this item if you want your computer to remote boot an operating system
from a network server.
Boot Sequence
This item defines where the system will look for an operating system, and the
order of priority. You can boot an OS from many locations including a SCSI or
ZIP drive, a floppy diskette drive or an LS-120 high-capacity diskette drive.
Swap Floppy Drive
If you have two floppy diskette drives in your system, this item allows you to
swap around the assigned drive letters so that drive A becomes drive B, and
drive B becomes drive A.
Boot Up NumLock Status
This item defines if the keyboard Num Lock key is active when your system is
started.
Gate A20 Option
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.
Memory Parity/ECC Check
If this item is enabled, it allows the system to use parity checking and ECC (Error
Correction Code) to catch errors in system memory.
Security Option
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.
PCI/VGA Palette Snoop
This item is designed to overcome some problems that can be caused by some
non-standard VGA cards. This board includes a built-in VGA system that does
not require palette snooping so you must leave this item disabled.
OS Select For DRAM > 64 MB
This item is only required if you have installed more than 64 MB of memory and
you are running the OS/2 operating system. Otherwise, leave this item at the
default Non-OS2.
