Advanced; Installed O/S; Reset Configuration Data - Micros Systems Eclipse Setup Manual

Advanced

This menu is a gateway to several sub-menus where you access many of the Eclipse
hardware features including the peripheral ports. The default setting for each field are
shown in [ ].
Several fields first appeared in BIOS Version 1.00.20, available only on the Micros
web site. BIOS release notes, detailing each change are included in the ZIP file on the
MICROS web site.
Installed O/S: [Win95]
This selection allows you to define the operating system installed on the hard disk.
Windows 95 is the default setting.
WARNING:
The 'Installed O/S' field must be set to match the operating
system that will be in use. In addition, the setting must be made
before the installation begins. If you are installing an operating
system other than Win95, change this setting to match. This
includes Windows 98, Windows ME, and Windows 2000. For
DOS/WFW 3.1, or Windows NT installations use the 'Other'
setting.
An incorrect OS setting can cause some operating systems to
display unexpected behavior.
Reset Configuration Data [No]
This field is normally set to [No]. When you select [Yes] and restart the workstation,
the BIOS clears, then rebuilds the Extended System Configuration Data (ESCD) data
area. The ESCD data area contains a table of the plug and play hardware detected by
the BIOS. This data area is examined by plug and play compatible operating systems.
Once the BIOS rebuilds the ESCD data, this field returns to [No].
PS/2 Mouse [Enabled] (BIOS Version 1.00.20 or later)
This selection enables or disables the front panel PS/2 Mouse port. The selections are
[Enable], [Disable], and [Auto Detect]. The default setting of [Enabled] allows the
operating system to detect and use the mouse, if present. When set to [Disabled], the
mouse port is disabled and IRQ12 becomes available for other uses.
Note: The PS/2 Mouse Field must be set to 'Disabled' to support a COM1 serial
mouse under DOS and Windows for Workgroups.
