Virus Warning
This field protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk drive.
When this field is enabled, the Award BIOS will monitor the boot sector and
partition table of the hard disk drive. If an attempt is made to write to the boot
sector or partition table of the hard disk drive, the BIOS will halt the system and
an error message will appear.
After seeing the error message, if necessary, you will be able to run an anti-
virus program to locate and remove the problem before any damage is done.
Many disk diagnostic programs which attempt to access the boot sector table
will cause the warning message to appear. If you are running such a program,
we recommend that you first disable this field. Also, disable this field if you are
installing or running certain operating system like Windows
XP or the operating system may not install nor will it work.
CPU L1 Cache and CPU L3 Cache
These field speed up the memory access. The default value is enabled.
CPU L2 Cache ECC Checking
The processors supported by the system board come with built-in Level 2 cache.
By default, ECC is enabled to check the Level 2 cache. If you are not using
this function, set this field to Disabled.
Processor Serial Number
This field will appear only when you are using Intel's Pentium
cessor. These processors come with an individual "processor serial number"
which by default is activated. Therefore, when connected to the Internet, the
processor transmits the serial number online making it possible to track your
online activity. This field provides you the option of disabling this function.
Quick Power On Self Test
This field speeds up Power On Self Test (POST) after you power on the sys-
tem. When Enabled, the BIOS will shorten or skip some check items during
POST.
First Boot Device, Second Boot Device, Third Boot Device and Boot Other
Device
Select the drive to boot first, second, and third in the "First Boot Device", "Sec-
ond Boot Device", and "Third Boot Device" fields respectively. The BIOS will
boot the operating system according to the sequence of the drive selected.
Set "Boot Other Device" to Enabled if you wish to boot from another device.
