  • Page 61: Appendix

    Appendix BIOS Setup Installation The BIOS is the basic input/output system, the firmware on the motherboard that enables your hardware to interface with your software. The BIOS determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. The BIOS contains all the code required to control the keyboard, display screen, disk drives, serial communications, and a number of miscella- neous functions.
  • Page 62: Getting Help

    Starting Setup The BIOS is immediately activated when you turn on the computer. The BIOS reads system configuration in CMOS RAM and begins the process of checking the system and configuring it through the Power-On-Self-Test (POST). When the preliminary tests are complete, the BIOS searches for an operating system on one of the system’s data storage devices (hard drive, CD-ROM, etc).

    This is because OS/2 and Windows enter and leave pro- tected mode via the BIOS, so Gate A20 needs to switch often from enabled to disabled and back again. Setting this feature to Fast improves memory access performance above 1MB because the chipset is much faster at switching Gate A20 than the keyboard controller.
  • Page 72 APIC Mode This option allows you to enable or disable Advanced Pro- grammable Interrupt Controller (APIC) Mode. APIC mode provides multi-processor interrupt management and incorpo- rates both static and dynamic symmetric interrupt distribution across all processors. In systems with multiple I/O sub- systems, each subsystem can have its own set of interrupts.
  • Page 73 OS Select For DRAM > 64MB This BIOS feature determines how systems with more than 64MB of memory are managed. A wrong setting can cause problems like erroneous memory detection. If you are using an older version of the IBM OS/2 operating system, you should select OS/2.

Without the Thermal Monitor, your processor may heat up to a critical temperature (approximately 135°C), at which point the thermal sensor shuts down your processor by removing the core voltage within 0.5 seconds.
