interface.
The following settings identify the type of EIDE devices installed in the computer:
Auto (use this setting for all EIDE devices from Dell)
l
Off
l
User 1 or User 2
l
A specific drive-type number
l
To choose a setting for each option, press <Enter> to access the field's pop-up settings menu. Then type characters from the keyboard or press
the left- or right-arrow key to cycle through the settings.
A drive-type number specifies the parameters of a hard-disk drive, based on a table recorded in the system's basic input/output system (BIOS).
NOTE: Operating systems that bypass the system BIOS may not obtain optimum hard-disk drive performance.
If You Have a Problem
If the system generates a drive error message the first time you boot your system after you install an EIDE drive, it may mean that your particular
drive does not work with the automatic drive-type detect feature. If you suspect that your problem is related to drive type, try entering your drive-type
information in one of the following ways:
If you know the drive-type number
l
Use the drive-type number you found in the documentation that came with the drive, or if the drive was installed by Dell when you
purchased your system, access the Manufacturing Test
Report from the Dell Accessories folder.
To set the drive-type number in System Setup, highlight the appropriate drive option (Primary Drive 0 or Primary Drive 1) and type
the correct drive-type number. If you prefer, you can press the right- or left-arrow key to increase or decrease, respectively, the drive-
type number until the correct one is displayed.
If you do not know the drive-type number
l
The Drive 0 and Drive 1 options display the following parameters for each drive:
Drive Type is the drive-type number for the selected hard-disk drive.
¡
Capacity (automatically calculated by the system) indicates the number of millions of bytes of storage provided by the drive.
¡
Cylinders is the number of logical cylinders.
¡
Heads indicates the number of logical heads in the drive.
¡
Sectors is the number of logical sectors per track.
¡
If none of the supported drive types match the parameters of your new drive, you can enter your own parameters. To do so, highlight the Drive 0
option and type u to display User 1. You can then press the right- or left-arrow key to switch between the User 1 and User 2 settings (only two
user-defined drive types are allowed). Then press <Tab> to highlight each of the parameter fields in succession, and enter the appropriate number
for each field.
NOTE: You can use the User 1 and User 2 drive types for both the Primary and Secondary Drive 0 and Drive 1 options. However, if
you select the User 1 or User 2 drive type, you may not obtain optimum hard-disk drive performance. Also, you cannot use the User 1
and User 2 drive types for hard-disk drives with a storage capacity that is greater than 528 megabytes (MB).

Primary Video Controller

Primary Video Controller determines whether the system looks for a video card in a PCI slot during the boot routine. When Auto is selected, the
system uses any PCI video card it finds during the boot routine. If no PCI video card is found, the system uses the video card in the accelerated
graphics port (AGP) slot. When AGP is selected, the system uses the video card in the AGP slot and ignores any video cards installed in PCI
slots.

Remote Wake Up

Remote Wake Up allows you to set the Remote Wake Up feature to On or Off. You must reboot your system before a change takes effect.

Report Keyboard Errors

Report Keyboard Errors enables or disables reporting of keyboard errors during the power-on self-test (POST), which is a series of tests that
