Dell PowerEdge 4400 - Manual (Page 76)

Speaker
Speaker determines whether the integrated speaker is On (the default) or Off. A change to this option takes effect immediately (rebooting the
system is not required).
Num Lock
Num Lock determines whether your system boots with the Num Lock mode activated on 101- or 102-key keyboards (it does not apply to 84-key
keyboards).
When Num Lock mode is activated, the rightmost bank of keys on your keyboard provides the mathematical and numeric functions shown at the
tops of the keys. When Num Lock mode is turned off, these keys provide cursor-control functions according to the label on the bottom of each key.
OS Install Mode
The OS Install Mode determines the maximum amount of memory available to the operating system. On sets the maximum memory available to
the the operating system to 256 megabytes (MB). Off
(default) makes all of the system memory available to the operating system.

l Full Speed (default)
l

System Alert

l Fault (default)

Processor Serial Number

Processor Core
Processor Core displays the internal microprocessor speed.
Processor Bus
Processor Bus displays the front side bus speed.
Processor 1 and Processor 2
Processor 1 and Processor 2 display the stepping number of the processor in processor slot 1 or slot 2 (such as C0), if one is installed. If the
stepping number is unknown, Unknown is displayed. If no processor is installed in this slot, Not Installed is displayed. This option has no user-
selectable settings.
Keyboard Errors
Keyboard Errors enables or disables reporting of keyboard errors during the power-on self-test (POST), which is a series of tests that the system
performs on the hardware each time you turn on the system.
This option is useful when applied to self-starting servers or host systems that have no permanently attached keyboard. In these situations,
selecting Do Not Report suppresses all error messages relating to the keyboard or to the keyboard controller during POST. This setting does not
affect the operation of the keyboard itself if a keyboard is attached to the computer.
Boot Sequence
Boot Sequence can be set to Diskette First (default), Hard Disk Only, or Device List, Ctrl —>.
The term boot refers to the system's start-up procedure. When turned on, the system "bootstraps" itself into an operational state by loading into
memory a small program, which in turn loads the necessary operating system. Boot Sequence tells the system where to look for the files that it
needs to load. Diskette First
Selecting Diskette First causes the system to try booting from drive A first. If the system finds a diskette that is not bootable in the drive or finds a
problem with the drive itself, it displays an error message. If it does not find a diskette in the drive, the system tries to boot from the hard-disk drive
