3.8.1 Reset Configuration Data
Default is Disabled. Select Enable to reset Extended System Configura-
tion Data (ESCD) if you have installed a new add-on, and system config-
uration has caused such a conflict that OS cannot boot.
3.8.2 Resources Controlled By
The commands here are "Auto(ESCD)" or “Manual.” Choosing “Man-
ual” requires you to choose resources from each following sub-menu.
"Auto(ESCD)" automatically configures all of the boot and Plug and Play
devices, but you must be using Windows 95 or above.
3.8.3 PCI/VGA Palette Snoop
This is set to “Disabled” by default.
3.8.4 Maximum Payload Size
It allows you to set the maximum TLP payload size for the PCI Express
devices. Setting options: [128 bytes], [256 bytes], [512 bytes], [1024
bytes], [2048 bytes], [4096 bytes].

3.9.1 Case Open Warning
It allows the limit switch sensor of the chassis to detect if the case is open
or closed.
