Chapter 3
First/Second/Third/Boot Other Device:
This option sets the sequence of drives BIOS attempts to boot from after POST completes.
BIOS will search these drives for an operating system.
Swap Floppy Drive:
Enabling this function will swap the floppy drive assignment so that drive A will function as
drive B, and drive B will function as drive A. Note that the boot sequence assignment
mentioned directly above does not include booting from floppy drive B. This function is
useful if floppy drives B and A are of a different format and you want to boot from floppy
drive B.
Boot up Floppy Seek:
This is a set up check for floppy power-on after starting the computer system.
Boot Up NumLock Status:
This function defines the keyboard's number pad as number keys or arrow keys. If it is set
at On the number keys will be activated, if it is set at Off the arrow keys will be activated.
Gate A20 Option:
This allows you to set the Gate A20 status. When set to [Fast], Gate A20 is cont rolled by
chipset. When set to [Normal], Gate A20 is cont rolled by a specific pin from the keyboard
controller. Available options are [Fast] and [Normal].
Keyboard Interface：
Typematic Rate Setting
1.
When enabled, you can set the following two-typematic control items. When
disabled, the keyboard controller determines keystrokes arbitrarily in your system.
Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec)
2.
The typematic rate sets the rate at which characters on the screen repeat when a
key is pressed and held down.
Typematic Delay (Msec)
3.
The typematic delay sets how long after you press a key that a character begins
repeating.
Security Option:
The Supervisor and/or User Password functions shown in Figure 3-1 must be set to take
advantage of this function. See Section 3.11 for password setting information. When the
Security Option is set to System, a password must be entered to boot up the system or
enter the BIOS setup program. When the Security Option is set to Setup, a password is
required to enter the BIOS setup program.
