2.3.4 Primary IDE Master/Slave

While entering Setup, the BIOS automatically detects the presence of IDE

devices. There is a separate sub-menu for each IDE device. Select a device

item then press to display the IDE device information.

Before attempting to configure a hard disk drive, make sure you have

the correct configuration information supplied by the drive manufacturer.

Incorrect settings may cause the system to fail to recognize the

installed hard disk.

The BIOS automatically detects the values opposite the dimmed items

(Capacity, Cylinder, Head, Sector and Transfer Mode). These values are not

user-configurable. These items show N/A if no IDE device is installed in the

system.

PIO Mode [Auto]

Sets the PIO mode for the IDE device. Configuration options: [Auto] [Mode

0] [Mode 1] [Mode 2] [Mode 3] [Mode 4]

UDMA Mode [Auto]

Disables or sets the UDMA mode. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Auto]

Primary IDE Master/Slave [Auto]

Select [Auto] to automatically detect an IDE hard disk drive. If automatic

detection is successful, the BIOS automatically fills in the correct values

for the remaining fields on this sub-menu. If the hard disk was already

formatted on a previous system, the setup BIOS may detect incorrect

parameters. Select [Manual] to manually enter the IDE hard disk drive

parameters. If no drive is installed select [None].

Configuration options: [None] [Auto] [Manual]
