Swap Floppy Drive

This item allows you to determine whether or not to enable Swap Floppy Drive. When enabled, the BIOS swaps
floppy drive assignments so that Drive A becomes Drive B, and Drive B becomes Drive A. By default, this field is
set to Disabled.

Boot Up Floppy Seek

When enabled, the BIOS will seek whether or not the floppy drive installed has 40 or 80 tracks. 360K type has
40 tracks while 760K, 1.2M and 1.44M all have 80 tracks. By default, this field is set to Enabled.

This allows you to activate the NumLock function after you power up the system. By default, the system boots up
with NumLock On.

Boot Up System Speed

This has no function and selects the default system speed (High).

Gate A20 Option

This field allows you to select how Gate A20 is worked. Gate A20 is a device used to address memory above 1
MB. The default setting is Fast.

you can set the two typematic controls listed next. By default, this field is set to Disabled.

When the typematic rate is enabled, the system registers repeated keystrokes speeds. You can select speed
range from 6 to 30 characters per second. By default, this item is set to 6.

second characters. By default, this item is set to 250msec.

Security Option

System, the system prompts for the User Password every time you boot up. When you select Setup, the system
always boots up and prompts for the Supervisor Password only when the Setup utility is called up.

OS Select for DRAM > 64MB

depends on certain BIOS calls to access memory. The default setting is Non-OS/2.
