External Cache
Most processors that can be installed in this system use external (L2) cache
memory to improve performance. The exceptions are older SEPP Celeron CPUs
running at 266 or 300 MHz. Enable this item for all but these two processors.
CPU L2 Cache ECC Checking
This item enables or disables ECC (Error Correction Code) error checking on the
CPU cache memory. We recommend that you leave this item at the default value.
Processor Number Feature
Each Pentium-III processor cartridge is installed with a unique processor number.
This number may be used for verification in internet transactions and e-
commerce. If you prefer not to use or distribute the unique processor number,
use this item to suppress the processor number.
Quick Power On Self Test
You can enable this item to shorten the power on testing and have your system
start up a little faster. You might like to enable this item after you are confident
that your system hardware is operating smoothly.
First/Second/Third Boot Device
Use these three items to select the priority and order of the devices that your
system will search for an operating system at start-up time.
Boot Other Device
If you enable this item, the system will search all other possible locations for an
operating system if it fails to find one in the devices specified under the first,
second and third boot devices.
Swap Floppy Drive
If you have two floppy diskette drives in your system, this item allows you to
swap around the assigned drive letters so that drive A becomes drive B, and
drive B becomes drive A.
Boot Up Floppy Seek
If this item is enabled, it checks the geometry of the floppy disk drives at start-up
time. You don't need to enable this item unless you have a old diskette drive with
360K capacity.
Boot Up NumLock Status
This item defines if the keyboard Num Lock key is active when your system is
started.
Gate A20 Option
This item defines how the system handles legacy software that was written for an
earlier generation of processors. Leave this item at the default value.
Firmware Write Protect
If you enable this item, it protects the firmware (BIOS) from being overwritten.
Disable this item if you plan to flash a new BIOS to the system.
