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.

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.

manually enter the IDE hard disk drive parameters. If no drive is installed select

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