A short description of the screen items follows:
IDE HDD Block Mode: This allows your hard controller to use the fast block mode to transfer
data to and from your hard disk drive (HDD). Enabled is the default.
IDE PIO: PIO means Programmed Input/Output. Rather than have the BIOS issue a series of
commands to effect a transfer to or from the disk drive, PIO allows the BIOS to tell the controller
what it wants and then let the controller and the CPU perform the complete task by themselves.
This simpler and more efficient (and faster).
Your system supports five modes, numbered from 0 (default) to 4, which primarily differ in
timing. When Auto is selected, the BIOS will select the best available mode.
IDE UDMA: UDMA means Ultra DMA Mode. When a Ultra DMA Device is connected to the
IDE connectors, set these options enabled.
On-Chip Primary PCI IDE: This setup item allows you either to enable or disable the primary
controller. You might choose to disable the controller if you were to add a higher performance or
specialized controller.
On-Chip Secondary PCI IDE: This setup item you either to enable or disable the secondary
controller. You might choose to disable the controller if you were to add a higher performance
or specialized controller. Enabled is the default.
Onboard FDC Controller: Choose Enabled or Disabled. "Enabled" allows onboard Floppy
Drive Controller to be functioned, otherwise the users should use other sources.
Onboard Serial Port 1: Choose None or from COM1, COM3, COM4 with different I/O
Address. While choosing proper I/O Address, be sure not to cause Address conflict with other
I/O devices.
Onboard Serial Port 2: Choose None or from COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4 with different I/O
Address. While choosing proper I/O Address, be sure not to cause Address conflict with other
I/O devices.
UART 2 Mode: Choose Standard, ASKIR and HPSIR for IrDA serial interface.
IR Function Duplex: This item will be shown only when UART 2 Mode is selected to ASKIR
or HPSIR. The available options are "Full" and "Half". It is used to choose the IR function
working in full duplex mode or half duplex mode correspondingly.
RxD, TxD Active: This item will be shown only when UART 2 Mode is selected to ASKIR or
HPSIR. The available options are "Hi, Hi", "Hi, Lo", "Lo, Hi" and "Lo, Lo". It is used to
configure the logic level of Receive and Transmit signal in IrDA interface.
