Advanced Bios Features Setup Menu - Abit AB-CX6 User Manual

Introduction of the BIOS

3-3. Advanced BIOS Features Setup Menu

In each item, you can press <Enter> at any time to display all the options for this item.
Advanced BIOS Features Setup Menu has already been set for maximum operation. If
you do not really understand each of the options in this menu, we recommend you use
the default values.
Virus Warning:
This item can be set to Enabled or Disabled, the default setting being Disabled. When this
feature is enabled, if there is any attempt from a software or an application to access the boot
sector or the partition table, the BIOS will warn you that a boot virus is attempting to access
the hard disk.
CPU Level 1 Cache:
This item is used to enable or to disable the CPU level 1 cache. When the cache is set to
Disabled it is much slower, so the default setting for this item is Enabled since it will speed
up memory access. Some old and very poorly written programs will make the computer
malfunction or crash if the system speed is too high. In this case, you should disable this
