ATA 66/100 IDE Cable Msg. (Enabled)
This item enables or disables the display of the ATA 66/100 Cable MSG.
Quick Power On Self Test (Enabled)
Enable this item to shorten the power on testing (POST) and have your system start
up faster. You might like to enable this item after you are confident that your system
hardware is operating smoothly.
First/Second/Third Boot Device (Floppy/HDD-0/CDROM)
Use these three items to select the priority and order of the devices that your system
searches for an operating system at start-up time.
Boot Other Device (Enabled)
When enabled, the system searches all other possible locations for an operating system if
it fails to find one in the devices specified under the First, Second, and Third boot devices.
Swap Floppy Drive (Disabled)
If you have two floppy diskette drives in your system, this item allows you to swap the
assigned drive letters so that drive A becomes drive B, and drive B becomes drive A.
Boot Up Floppy Seek (Disabled)
If this item is enabled, it checks the size of the floppy disk drives at start-up time. You
don’t need to enable this item unless you have a legacy diskette drive with 360K capacity.
Boot Up NumLock Status (On)
This item defines if the keyboard Num Lock key is active when your system is started.
