Anti-Virus Protection (Disabled)
When enabled, this item provides protection against viruses that try to write to
the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk drive. You need to disable
this item when installing an operating system. We recommend that you enable
anti-virus protection as soon as you have installed an operating system.
CPU Internal Cache (Enabled)
All processors that can be installed in this mainboard use internal level 1 (L1)
cache memory to improve performance. Leave this item at the default value
for better performance.
External Cache (Enabled)
Most processors that can be installed in this system use external level 2 (L2)
cache memory to improve performance. Leave this item at the default value
for better performance.
Quick Power On Self Test (Enabled)
Enable this item to shorten the power on testing (POST) and have your sys-
tem start up faster. You might like to enable this item after you are confident
that your system hardware is operating smoothly.
1st/2nd/3rd Boot Device (Floppy/HDD-0/CDROM)
Use these three items to select the priority and order of the devices that your
system searches for an operating system at start-up time.
