360-KB floppy drives have 40 tracks; drives with
270KB, 1.2MB, and 1.44MB capacity all have 80
tracks. Because very few modern PCs have 40-track
floppy drives, we recommend that you set this field
to disabled to save time.

memory above 1 MB (extended memory). When
set to Fast, the system chipset controls Gate A20.
When set to Normal, a pin in the keyboard controller
controls Gate A20. Setting Gate A20 to Fast improves
system speed, particularly with OS/2 and Windows.
When Disabled, the following two items (Typematic Rate
and Typematic Delay) are irrelevant. Keystroke repeats
at a rate determined by the keyboard controller in your
system.
When Enabled, you can select a typematic rate and
typematic delay.
When the typematic rate setting is enabled, you can
select a typematic rate (the rate at which character
repeats when you hold down a key) of 6, 8, 10, 12,
15, 20, 24, or 30 characters per second.
