IDE Primary /Secondary Master/Slave PIO

The four IDE PIO (Programmed Input/Output) fields let you set a PIO
mode (0-4) for each of the four IDE devices that the onboard IDE
interface supports. Modes 0 through 4 provide successively increased
performance. In Auto mode, the system automatically determines the
best mode for each device. The options available are Auto, Mode 0,
Mode 1, Mode 2, Mode 3, and Mode 4.

IDE Primary /Secondary Master/Slave UDMA

Ultra DMA 66/100 implementation is possible only if your IDE hard drive
supports it and the operating environment includes a DMA driver
(Windows 95 OSR2 or a third-party IDE bus master driver). If your hard
drive and your system software support Ultra DMA 33/66/100, select
Auto to enable BIOS support. The options available are Auto, Mode 0,
Mode 1, and Mode 2.

On-Chip Primary/Secondary PCI IDE

The integrated peripheral controller contains an IDE interface with
support for two IDE channels. Select Enabled to activate each channel
separately. The default value is “Enabled”.

remove the IDE Primary Master/Slave PIO and/or IDE

Secondary Master/Slave PIO items on the menu.

controller and you have a USB keyboard.
