Chapter 4: BIOS Setup

First Boot Device, Second Boot Device and Third Boot Device

Select the drive to boot first, second and third in the “First Boot Device”
“Second Boot Device” and “Third Boot Device” fields respectively. The
BIOS will boot the operating system according to the sequence of the
drive selected.

The options are:

Hard Disk
CDROM
USB-FDD
USB-ZIP
USB-CDROM
LAN
Disabled

Boot Up NumLock Status

This allows you to determine the default state of the numeric keypad. By
default, the system boots up with NumLock on wherein the function of
the numeric keypad is the number keys. When set to Off, the function of
the numeric keypad is the arrow keys.

Security Option

This field determines when the system will prompt for the password -
everytime the system boots or only when you enter the BIOS setup. Set
the password in the Set Supervisor/User Password submenu.

System
The system will not boot and access to Setup will be denied unless
the correct password is entered at the prompt.
Setup
The system will boot, but access to Setup will be denied unless the
correct password is entered at the prompt.

System BIOS Cacheable

When this field is enabled, accesses to the system BIOS ROM addressed
at F0000H-FFFFFH are cached, provided that the cache controller is ena-
bled. The larger the range of the Cache RAM, the higher the efficiency of
the system.

Video BIOS Cacheable

As with caching the system BIOS, enabling the Video BIOS cache will al-
low access to video BIOS addresssed at C0000H to C7FFFH to be cached,
if the cache controller is also enabled. The larger the range of the Cache
RAM, the faster the video performance.
