Description
POST Mode (QuickBoot, FullBoot, or FullBoot every 1–30 days)
Quick boot is faster by skipping some steps such as the full memory test.
POST Messages (Enable/Disable).
When enabled, POST displays non-error messages to the screen.
F9 Prompt (Displayed/Hidden)
Displays F9=Boot Menu during POST. Hiding this feature prevents the text from being displayed,
but pressing
F9
still calls up the boot menu.
F10 prompt (Displayed/Hidden)
Displays F10=Setup during POST. Hiding this feature prevents the text from being displayed but
pressing F10 still accesses the Setup screen.
F12 prompt (Displayed/Hidden)
Displays F12=Network Service Boot during POST. Hiding this feature prevents the text from
being displayed, but pressing F12 still forces the system to attempt booting from the network.
Option ROM* Prompt (Enable/Disable)
When enabled, causes the system to display a message before loading options ROMs.
Remote Wakeup Boot Source
Enables you to specify which boot device to use after a remote wake event.
After Power Loss (Off/On/Previous State)
In the event of an AC power loss, determines system behavior when power is restored. Options
are Off (stay off), On (turn on immediately), and Previous State (if the computer was on when
power was lost, power on immediately; if it was off, stay off).
POST Delay (in seconds) (None, 5, 10, 15, 20)
Specifies a delay during POST. This setting may be necessary for certain add-in peripherals that
respond slowly or violate specifications. For instance, disk drives should spin up within 15 seconds,
but some older drives might take longer.
Setup Browse Mode (Enable/Disable)
Enables viewing Setup Options without entering Setup password. Enable allows you to view Setup
in read-only mode if you do not enter the Setup password. Disable blocks Setup entirely if you do
not enter the Setup password. This option is only valid if a Setup password is set.
Fan Idle Mode
This setting changes the minimum fan speed. The fans are still automatically controlled.
The internal fans of the system are controlled automatically to guarantee proper operation of any
configuration shipped from the factory. However, some customers with cards and configurations
with special thermal/cooling needs may need to increase the minimum spinning speed of the fans
in the system. They can do so by using this menu and selecting a higher minimal fan speed.
Enables you to disable or specify a day and time for BIOS power-on.
ACPI S3 Support (Enable/Disable)
Enables/disables ACPI S3 suspend-to-RAM (Standby) from OS.
