Onboard Parallel Port (378/IRQ7)
This option is used to assign the I/O address and interrupt request (IRQ) for
the onboard parallel port.
Parallel Port Mode (ECP)
Enables you to set the data transfer protocol for your parallel port. There are
four options: SPP (Standard Parallel Port), EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port),
ECP (Extended Capabilities Port) and ECP+EPP.
SPP allows data output only. Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) and Enhanced
Parallel Port (EPP) are bi-directional modes, allowing both data input and output.
ECP and EPP modes are only supported with EPP- and ECP-aware peripherals.
ECP Mode Use DMA (3)
When the onboard parallel port is set to ECP mode, the parallel port can use
DMA 3 or DMA 1.

USB Controller (Enabled)
Enable this item if you plan to use the Universal Serial Bus ports on this main-
board.
USB Keyboard Support (Disabled)
Enable this item if you plan to use a keyboard connected through the USB port in
a legacy operating system (such as DOS) that does not support Plug and Play.
Onboard LAN (Enabled)
Use this item to enable and disable the onboard LAN function.
Onboard LAN Boot ROM (Disabled)
Use this item to enable and disable the booting from the onboard LAN or a
network add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed.
IDE HDD Block Mode (Enabled)
Enable this field if your IDE hard drive supports block mode. Block mode en-
ables BIOS to automatically detect the optimal number of block read and
writes per sector that the drive can support. It also improves the speed of ac-
cess to IDE devices.
Init Display First (PCI Slot)
Use this item to specify whether your graphics adapter is installed in one of
the PCI slots or is integrated on the mainboard.
AGP Auto Calibration (Enabled)
This item allows you to enable or disable the AGP buffer strength auto calibra-
tion through the chipset.
IDECHO/IDECH1 ACCESS INTERFACE (EDB Bus)
This item determines whether the IDE access interface is the PCI bus or the
embedded bus.
