Admin-Module menu
The Admin-Module menu references the interfaces between your system hardware and application software and
appears as shown below, followed by an explanation of its parameters.
Select module
This parameter allows you to enable or disable and to alter the destination address for system modules. By
moving these modules within the option ROM memory area (C0000h through EFFFFh), you can avoid address
collisions or optimise the usage of this memory area.
When pressing ENTER on this parameter, a listing of all modules is displayed. For each module stored in FLASH
RAM, the following is listed:
Module name in abbreviated form (for example, RPLODI stands for Remote Program Load)
Date the module was created
Category - whether it is an optional menu in SETUP, a system BIOS, storage, video, or LAN module
Module number that specifies device unique information, for example LAN ID
Choice of initiating the module early or late during the power-on self-test (POST)
Whether or not the module is discarded before start-up
Whether the module is write enabled at some point in time
The size of the module in 16-byte units
Choice of flagging the module in order to prevent it from being loaded at all. This is especially useful if you do not
use the module's associated hardware.
Most of the information in this menu is read-only. You can, in this menu, only disable/enable modules and alter
module destination addresses.
Load segment
Instead of using jumpers to control the segment address of modules, you can easily configure the segment
address to which the module is loaded before POST using this parameter. When you press ENTER on this
parameter, you are greeted with an entry window in which you may enter the load segment.
Exclude module
This parameter determines whether or not the optional module is loaded. Pressing ENTER toggles between the
values Yes (the module is never loaded) and No (the module is loaded, unless the system BIOS specifies
otherwise).
Info menu
The Info menu has no sub menus, and the parameters cannot be modified; this menu serves mainly as a source
of general information on your system.
When you make changes to your system, the parameters are updated automatically and immediately, but the
changes are displayed only after you boot the computer
