Chapter 3: BIOS Setup 3.1. About the BIOS The BIOS is the basic input/output system, the firmware on the motherboard that enables your hardware to interface with your software. The BIOS determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. The BIOS contains all the code required to control the keyboard, display screen, disk drives, serial communications, and a number of miscellaneous functions. This chapter describes the various BIOS settings that can be used to configure your system.
3.1.3 In Case of Problems If you have trouble booting your computer after making and saving the changes with the BIOS setup program, you can restart the computer by holding the power button down until the computer shuts off (usually within 4 seconds); resetting by pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL; or clearing the CMOS. The best advice is to only alter settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change settings in the Chipset section unless you are absolutely sure of what you are doing.
3.2 BIOS Main Menu In this section, you can alter general features such as the date and time, as well as access to the IDE configuration options. Note that the options listed below are for options that can directly be changed within the Main Setup screen. Main Advanced PhoenixBIOS Setup Utility Security Power System Time: System Date: BIOS Version: BIOS Build Date: [xx:xx:xx] [xxxx-xx-xx] Legacy Diskette A: [1.44/1.
Legacy Diskette A Defines the floppy drive type NONE / 360K, 5.25 in / 1.2 M, 5.25 in / 720 K, 3.5 in / 1.44 M, 3.5 in / 2.88 M, 3.5 in System Memory This display allows you to change the amount of system memory present on the system. Extended Memory This displays/allows you to change the amount of extended memory present on the system.
3.2.1 IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave Setup Computer detects IDE drive type from drive C to drive F. Press Enter on any of the Primary/Master, Primary/Slave, Secondary/Master, Secondary/Slave options to view advanced details of the corresponding drive. The system displays advanced details like the number of heads/cylinders/sectors on the detected disk and the maximum storage capacity of the disk.
large mode, or it may be done using a different algorithm called LBA-assist translation. The translated geometry is still what is presented to the operating system for use in Int 13h calls. The difference between LBA and ECHS is that when using ECHS the BIOS translates the parameters used by these calls from the translated geometry to the drive's logical geometry. With LBA, it translates from the translated geometry directly into a logical block (sector) number.
3.2.2 Memory Cache This setting allows you to tweak the various cache settings for optimal performance of your system. Press Enter to display the various cache settings.
As such, it would be a waste of L2 cache bandwidth to cache the video BIOS instead of data that are more critical to the system's performance. In addition, if any program writes into this memory area, it will result in a system crash. So, it is recommended that you write protect this area for optimal system performance. Uncached / Write Protect Cache Base 0-512K This feature allows you to control caching of 512K base memory.
3.2.3 Boot Features This option allows setting boot parameters. Press Enter to view the Boot Features screen.
Quick Boot Mode This BIOS feature allows you to decrease the time it takes to boot up the computer by shortening or skipping certain standard booting procedures. If enabled, the BIOS will shorten the booting process by skipping some tests and shortening others.
3.3 Advanced Menu This section facilitates configuring advanced BIOS options for your system.
Please note that the BIOS will automatically reset it to the default setting of No after reconfiguring the new ESCD. So, there is no need for you to manually disable this feature after rebooting. Yes / No Large Disk Access Mode This option determines whether a hard drive with more than 1024 cylinders, more than 16 heads and or more than 64 tracks per sector is present on the system. Set this option to DOS if such a hard drive is present. Else, set this option to Other.

Glossary ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface): a power management specification that allows the operating system to control the amount of power distributed to the computer’s devices. Devices not in use can be turned off, reducing unnecessary power expenditure. AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port): a PCI-based interface which was designed specifically for demands of 3D graphics applications. The 32-bit AGP channel directly links the graphics controller to the main memory.
Bus: a data pathway. The term is used especially to refer to the connection between the processor and system memory, and between the processor and PCI or ISA local buses. Bus mastering: allows peripheral devices and IDEs to access the system memory without going through the CPU (similar to DMA channels). Cache: a temporary storage area for data that will be needed often by an application. Using a cache lowers data access times, since the needed information is stored in the SRAM instead of in the slow DRAM.
IRQs, it is vital that you do not double up devices on a single line. Plug-n-Play devices will take care of this for you. Doze mode: in this mode, only the CPU’s speed is slowed. DRAM (Dynamic RAM): widely available, very affordable form of RAM which has the unfortunate tendency to lose data if it is not recharged regularly (every few milliseconds). This refresh requirement makes DRAM three to ten times slower than non-recharged RAM such as SRAM.
IDE (Integrated Device/Drive Electronics): a simple, self-contained HDD interface. It can handle drives up to 8.4 GB in size. Almost all IDEs sold now are in fact Enhanced IDEs (EIDEs), with maximum capacity determined by the hardware controller. IDE INT (IDE Interrupt): a hardware interrupt signal that goes to the IDE. I/O (Input/Output): the connection between your computer and another piece of hardware (mouse, keyboard, etc.
PCI-to-PCI bridge: allows you to connect multiple PCI devices onto one PCI slot. Pipeline burst SRAM: a type of RAM that can maintain it’s data as long as power is provided to the memory chips. In this configuration, SRAM requests are pipelined, which means that larger packets of data are sent to the memory at one time, and acted upon quickly. This type of SRAM operates at bus speeds higher than 66MHz.
RAM (Random Access Memory): technically refers to a type of memory where any byte can be accessed without touching the adjacent data, is often used to refer to the system’s main memory. This memory is available to any program running on the computer. ROM (Read-Only Memory): a storage chip which contains the BIOS; the basic instructions required to boot the computer and start up the operating system. SATA (Serial ATA): is an evolutionary replacement for the Parallel ATA physical storage interface.
UltraDMA-33/66/100: a fast version of the old DMA channel. UltraDMA is also called UltraATA. Without proper UltraDMA controller, your system cannot take advantage of higher data transfer rates of the new UltraDMA/UltraATA hard drives. USB (Universal Serial Bus): a versatile port. This one port type can function as a serial, parallel, mouse, keyboard or joystick port. It is fast enough to support video transfer, and is capable of supporting up to 127 daisy-chained peripheral devices.
Technical Support If a problem arises with your system, you should turn to your dealer for help first. Your system has most likely been configured by them, and they should have the best idea of what hardware and software your system contains. Furthermore, if you purchased your system from a dealer near you, you can bring your system to them to have it serviced instead of attempting to do so yourself (which can have expensive consequences).
