4. BIOS SETUP
Slot 1/2/3 IRQ [Auto]
Your motherboard may have between 2 and 5 PCI slots depending on the
chipset. Each PCI must have a unique IRQ number to operate. Make sure
you do not choose an IRQ number used by another device. Configuration
options: [Auto] [NA] [3] [4] [5] [7] [9] [10] [11] [12] [14] [15]
PCI/VGA Palette Snoop [Disabled]
Some display cards that are nonstandard VGA such as graphics accelera-
tors or MPEG Video Cards may not show colors properly. The setting [En-
abled] should correct this problem. Otherwise, leave this on the setup de-
fault setting of [Disabled]. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
PCI Latency Timer [32]
Leave on default setting for best performance vs. stability.
Symbios SCSI BIOS [Auto]
[Auto] allows the BIOS to detect whether you have a Symbios SCSI card. If
detected, the onboard Symbios BIOS will be enabled; if not, it will be dis-
abled and the external Symbios SCSI card’s own BIOS can be used instead.
NOTE: If your Symbios SCSI card does not have a BIOS, the Symbios
SCSI card will not function. Configuration options: [Auto] [Disabled]
USB Function [Disabled]
The USB ports can be activated or deactivated using this field. Configura-
tion options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
