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.
Intel Smart Connect Technology (Advanced Menu)
Smart Connect is a technology that makes checks on web applications that are open
even when the computer is in sleep mode, and thus allows updates to be made with-
out the need to turn the computer on.
Intel Anti-Theft Technology (Advanced Menu)
Anti-Theft Technology, which is built-in to the processor of the computer, allows
system administrators to render your computer useless to thieves by sending a poi-
son pill encrypted SMS message over a 3G network etc. Administrators can also re-
motely unlock a recovered computer quickly, or direct the system to send location
information (GPS coordinates) back to a central server.
SATA Mode Selection (Advanced Menu)
You can configure SATA (Serial ATA) control to operate in IDE (native/compati-
ble), AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) 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).
SATA Mode
Selection
If you have installed the
Windows 7 operating
system with either IDE
or AHCI mode enabled,
DO NOT disable the set
mode (if you wish to dis-
able the set mode you
will need to reinstall the
Windows 7 OS).
