Mouse
This option enables the use of a mouse. The actual presence of a
mouse can then be detected by POST. You should not normally
disable this option.
IDE Drives Setup
The motherboard's two IDE/ATA (Integrated Drive Electronics AT-
Attachment) interfaces support a total of four drives (that is, two
drives per interface).
However, the computer itself can accommodate at most two hard
disk drives plus one removable-media drive, typically a CD-ROM
drive. The hard disk drives should be connected to the primary IDE
interface, and the CD-ROM drive connected to the secondary
interface.
Hard disk drives
Hard disk size and type is auto-detected when the computer is
turned on, but two other parameters can be manually set for each
drive.
