Num Lock after boot

This parameter displays whether the NumLock function on
the keyboard turns on automatically each time you turn your
computer on. You can set this to Enabled or Disabled. The
default is Enabled.

Memory test

When set to Enabled, this parameter allows the system to
perform a RAM test during the POST routine. When set to
Disabled, the system detects only the memory size and
bypasses the test routine. The default setting is Disabled.
When the Fast POST Mode parameter is set to Auto, the
Memory Test parameter is disabled and becomes non-
configurable.

System boot drive

This parameter has four options.
Drive A Then C
In this option, the system BIOS checks drive A first. If there
is a diskette in the drive, the system boots from drive A. If
there is no diskette, the system boots from drive C. This is
the default setting.
Drive C Then A
In this option, the system BIOS checks drive C first. If there
is no hard disk drive, the system boots from drive A.
Drive A Only
This option directs BIOS to boot up the system from
drive A.
Drive C Only
This option directs BIOS to boot up the system from
drive C.
