Quck Bootng
Settng the tem to [Enabled] allows the system to boot wthn 10 seconds snce t wll
skp some check tems.
Boot Up Num-Lock LED
Ths settng s to set the Num Lock status when the system s powered on. Settng to
[On] wll turn on the Num Lock key when the system s powered on. Settng to [O] wll
allow users to use the arrow keys on the numerc keypad.
IOAPIC Functon
Ths eld s used to enable or dsable the APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt
Controller). Due to complance wth PC2001 desgn gude, the system s able to run n
APIC mode. Enablng APIC mode wll expand avalable IRQ resources for the system.
MPS Table Verson
Ths eld allows you to select whch MPS (Mult-Processor Speccaton) verson to be
used for the operatng system. You need to select the MPS verson supported by your
operatng system. To nd out whch verson to use, consult the vendor of your operatng
system.
Prmary Graphc’s Adapter
Ths settng speces whch graphc card s your prmary graphcs adapter.
PCI Latency Tmer
Ths tem controls how long each PCI devce can hold the bus before another takes
over. When set to hgher values, every PCI devce can conduct transactons for a longer
tme and thus mprove the eectve PCI bandwdth. For better PCI performance, you
should set the tem to hgher values.
HPET
The HPET (Hgh Precson Event Tmers) s a component that s part of the chpset. You
can to enable t, and wll provde you wth the means to get to t va the varous ACPI
methods.
Surround Vew
Surround vew provdes the power and convenence of mult-adapter, mult-montor sup
-
port for computers that use an PCIE based graphcs card n conjuncton wth ntegrated
graphcs processors (IGPs).
On-Chp VGA
Ths tem speces whether to allocate the memory for onboard ntegrated GPU from
the system memory or sdeport memory. Settng to [UMA], allocates the system share
memory for onboard ntegrated GPU.
VGA Share Memory
The system shares memory to onboard ntegrated GPU. Ths settng controls the exact
memory sze shared to onboard ntegrated GPU.
UMA Locaton
Ths tem s used to select the locaton of UMA to avod over-lappng wth the other data
blocks n system memory.
