3.6 Advanced BIOS Features

• Boot Sector Protection

This function protects the BIOS from accidental corruption by unauthorized users or computer viruses.

When enabled, the BIOS’s data cannot be changed when attempting to update the BIOS with a Flash utility.

To successfully update the BIOS, you’ll need to disable this Flash BIOS Protection function.

You should enable this function at all times. The only time when you need to disable it is when you want to

update the BIOS. After updating the BIOS, you should immediately re-enable it to protect it against viruses.

• Quick Booting

Setting the item to [Enabled] allows the system to boot within 10 seconds since it will skip some check

items.

• Boot Up Num-Lock LED
