Bluetooth Power Setting (Advanced Menu > Advanced Chipset Control)

You can adjust the Bluetooth module power setting to your preference. The default
setting (

Disabled) will see the Bluetooth module powered off when the system is

started up or restarted. Enabling the power setting will have the module retain the
last power status (on or off) before any restart or shut down.

SATA Mode (Advanced Menu)

You can configure SATA (Serial ATA) control to operate in

IDE (native/compati-

ble),

AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) or RAID (Redundant Array of In-

dependent disks)

modes from this menu. The SATA Mode should be set BEFORE

installing an operating system, and after you have backed up all necessary files and
data (see sidebar). See

“Setting Up SATA RAID Mode” on page 7 - 2

for details.

Make sure you install the

Intel Rapid Storage Technology application if you have

set the SATA Mode to

RAID or AHCI

Enabled” if you intend to use USB devices in systems which do not nor-

mally support USB functionality (e.g. DOS). The default setting is “

Enabled” and

does not need to be changed if you intend to use your USB devices in
