CPU Internal Cache and External Cache
These fields speed up the memory access. The default is Enabled, which provides
better performance by enabling cache.
Quick Power On Self Test
This field speeds up Power On Self Test (POST) whenever the system is powered
on. The BIOS will shorten or skip some check items during POST. To attain the
shortest POST time, select “Fast”.
First Boot Device, Second Boot Device, Third Boot Device and Boot Other
Device
Select the drive to boot first, second and third in the “First Boot Device” “Sec-
ond Boot Device” and “Third Boot Device” fields respectively. The BIOS will boot
the operating system according to the sequence of the drive selected. Set “Boot
Other Device” to Enabled if you wish to boot from another device.
Advanced BIOS Features
The Advanced BIOS Features allows you to configure your system for basic op-
eration. Some entries are defaults required by the system board, while others, if
enabled, will improve the performance of your system or let you set some fea-
tures according to your preference.
