BIOS Setup
Virus Warning
This field protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk
drive. When this field is enabled, the Award BIOS will monitor the boot
sector and partition table of the hard disk drive. If an attempt is made
to write to the boot sector or partition table of the hard disk drive,
the BIOS will halt the system and an error message will appear.
After seeing the error message, if necessary, you will be able to run
an anti-virus program to locate and remove the problem before any
damage is done.
Many disk diagnostic programs which attempt to access the boot sec-
tor table will cause the warning message to appear. If you are running
such a program, we recommend that you first disable this field.
CPU L1 & L2 Cache
These fields speed up the memory access. The default value is ena-
bled. Enable the external cache for better performance.
The settings on the screen are for reference only. Your version may not be
identical to this one.
Hard Disk Boot Priority
This field is used to select the boot sequence of the hard drives.
Move the cursor to this field then press <Enter>. Use the Up or
Down arrow keys to select a device then press <+> to move it up
or <-> to move it down the list.
