Quick Boot
Enabling this setting will cause the BIOS power-on self test routine to
skip some of its tests during bootup for faster system boot.
Quiet Boot
This BIOS feature determines if the BIOS should hide the normal POST
messages with the motherboard or system manufacturer’s full-screen
logo.
When it is enabled, the BIOS will display the full-screen logo during the
boot-up sequence, hiding normal POST messages.
When it is disabled, the BIOS will display the normal POST messages,
instead of the full-screen logo.
Please note that enabling this BIOS feature often adds 2-3 seconds
of delay to the booting sequence. This delay ensures that the logo is
displayed for a sufficient amount of time. Therefore, it is recommended
that you disable this BIOS feature for a faster boot-up time.
Bootup Num-Lock
This setting is to set the Num Lock status when the system is powered
on. Setting to [On] will turn on the Num Lock key when the system is
powered on. Setting to [Off] will allow users to use the arrow keys on
the numeric keypad.
Wait For ‘F1’ If Error
When this setting is set to [Enabled] and the boot sequence encounters
an error, it asks you to press F1. If disabled, the system continues to
boot without waiting for you to press any keys.
Flash Write Protection

ized users or computer viruses.
