Page 36: Advanced Cmos Setup
Boot Sector Virus Protection This option protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk against accidental modifications. Any attempt to write to them will cause the system to halt and display a warning message. If this occurs, you can either allow the operation to continue or use a bootable virus-free floppy disk to reboot and investigate your system. - Page 37 Floppy Access Control This option determines the floppy access method, which can be either read only or normal (read/write). When it is set, the data in the floppy is allowed to be read instead of being written.” Normal” allows the floppy to be read or written.

The item is to set up the interval between two singles. RAS# Precharge: This item is the time when RAS has to re-locate. CAS# Latency: This item is to set up a certain period of time for the memory to start writing and reading data when memory receives one CAS single.

PASSWORD SETTING This BIOS Setup has an optional password feature. The system can be configured so that all users must enter a password every time the system boots or when BIOS Setup is executed. -
Page 49: Bios Exit
5-12-2. Auto Configuration with Fail Safe Setting The user can load the Fail-Safe BIOS Setup option settings by selecting the Fail-Safe item from the Default section of the BIOS Setup main menu. The Fail-Safe settings provide far from optimal system performance, but are the most stable settings. Use this option as a diagnostic aid if the system behaves erratically. -
Page 50: Bios Update
5-14. BIOS UPDATE The BIOS program instructions are contained within computer chips called FLASH ROMs that are located on your system board. The chips can be electronically reprogrammed, allowing you to upgrade your BIOS firmware without removing and installing chips. The AR-B1682 provides the FLASH BIOS update function for you to easily update a newer BIOS version.
