6.3 ADVANCED CMOS SETUP

The option consists of configuration entries that allow you to improve your system
performance, or let you set up some system features according to your preference. Some entries here are
required by the CPU board’s design to
remain in their default settings.

These options determine where the system looks first for an operating system. The default setting is to check first
the hard disk and then the floppy drive, and last the CDROM.

BootUp Num-Lock

This item is used to activate the Num Lock function upon system boot. If the setting is on, after a boot, the Num
Lock light is lit, and user can use the number key.

Floppy Drive Swap

The option reverses the drive letter assignments of your floppy disk drives in the Swap A, B setting, otherwise
leave on the default setting of Disabled (No Swap). This works separately from the BIOS Features floppy disk
swap feature. It is functionally the same as physically interchanging the connectors of the floppy disk drives. When
the function’s setting is <Enabled>, the BIOS swapped floppy drive assignments so that Drive A becomes Drive B,
and Drive B becomes Drive A under DOS.

Floppy Drive Seek

If the item is setting Enabled, the BIOS will seek the floppy drive one time upon bootup.

PS/2 Mouse Support

The setting of Enabled allows the system to detect a PS/2 mouse on bootup. If detected, IRQ12 will be used for
the PS/2 mouse. IRQ 12 will be reserved for expansion cards if a PS/2 mouse is not detected. Disabled will
reserve IRQ12 for expansion cards and therefore the PS/2 mouse will not function.
