Whether you need to configure the computer with these options depends primarily on
the kind of software or peripherals you use.
(a) Power-up Modes
Use this option to choose hibernation, resume and boot mode.
Boot Turns on boot mode. (Default)
Resume Turns on resume mode.
Hibernation Turns on hibernation mode.
(b) CPU Cache
Use this option to enable or disable the CPU cache.
Enabled Enables the CPU cache. (Default)
Disabled Disables the CPU cache.
When enabled is selected, a subwindow similar to the one below displays to let
you select the cache write policy. The options for this setting are Write-back
(default) and Write-through for CPU cache.
Write-back policy provides better system performance, because main memory
is accessed only when necessary to update the cache contents with changes in
main memory. Write-through policy accesses main memory every time data is
handled by the processor.
