Hard Disk Setup
The BIOS supports various types for user settings, The BIOS supports <Pri Master> and <Pri Slave> so the user
can install up to two hard disks. For the master and slave jumpers, please refer to the hard disk’s installation
descriptions and the hard disk jumper settings.
You can select <AUTO> under the <TYPE> and <MODE> fields. This will enable auto detection of your IDE drives
during bootup. This will allow you to change your hard drives (with the power off) and then power on without
having to reconfigure your hard drive type. If you use older hard disk drives which do not support this feature, then
you must configure the hard disk drive in the standard method as described above by the <USER> option.
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. The
default setting is <Disabled>. This setting is recommended because it conflicts with new operating systems.
Installation of new operating systems requires that you disable this to prevent write errors.
5.3 ADVANCED CMOS SETUP
The <Advanced CMOS Setup> option consists of configuration entries that allow you to improve your system
performance, or let you set up some system features according to your preference. Some entries here are
required by the CPU board’s design to remain in their default settings.
