Quick Power On Self Test
This feature speeds up the Power On Self Test (POST) by
skipping some parts of the POST. If your system is func-
tioning normally, you can enable this feature to speed
the boot process. The default setting is Enabled.
Boot Sequence
This determines the order in which the computer checks
drives for an operating system. This allows you to con-
figure the system to boot from a CD-ROM drive as well
as the drive A: floppy disk drive and the drive C: boot
hard disk. The options are:
A, C
C,A
C, CD-ROM, A
CD-ROM, C, A
Swap Floppy Drive
This switches the floppy drive assignments so that drive
A is treated as drive B: and drive B: as drive A: under
DOS. The default setting is Disabled.
Boot Up Floppy Seek
When enabled, the BIOS checks the floppy disk drive(s)
to see if they are 40-track (360KB floppy disk drive) or
80-track (all other types). Don’ t enable this unless your
system has a 360KB floppy drive. The default setting is
Disabled.
Boot Up NumLock Status
This item allows you to select which mode the numeric
keypad on an IBM-compatible extended keyboard is set
to when the computer boots up. The options are:
On – Numeric keypad mode (Default)
Off – Cursor control mode
