Identifies drives attached to the IDE1 and IDE2
connectors on system board. Each EIDE con-
nector supports two EIDE drives (Drive 0 and
Drive 1).
For EIDE hard-disk drives, the system provides
an automatic drive-type detect feature. To use
this feature, highlight the appropriate drive cat-
egory and type a (for
automatic
).
If none of the supported drive types match the
parameters of the new drive, enter the param-
eters directly. To do so, highlight the
appropriate drive category (Drive 0 and Drive 1)
and type u to display User1. Press <Tab> to
highlight each of the parameter fields in suc-
cession, and enter the appropriate number for
each field.
NOTE: For EIDE devices such as EIDE
CD-ROM drives and EIDE tape drives that are
using the built-in EIDE controller, set the
appropriate Drive category to Auto.
Reserved Memory Designates a region of system board memory
that can be supplied by an expansion card.
This feature should not be enabled unless an
expansion card that requires special address-
ing is installed.
CPU Speed Indicates processor speed at which system
boots—the processor’s rated speed or a
slower compatibility speed.
Num Lock Determines whether keyboard’s Num Lock
mode is activated.
ACPI Controls the Advanced Configuration and
Power Interface. If the operating system sup-
ports ACPI and ACPI is toggled to On, pressing
the power button momentarily places the sys-
tem in a power-saving mode. You can turn the
system completely off by pressing and holding
the power button for more than 4 seconds.
When ACPI is activated (On), IRQ9 is not avail-
able for use by expansion cards.
