General Information 25
PCI Control
PCI Parity
The parameter allows you to enable or disable parity
checking of data across the PCI bus. Some adapters
do not generate parity and will require this option set
to disable. The default is set to “Enabled”.
Plug and Play Control
Plug and Play Operating System
Select “Yes”, if you are experiencing POST errors
numbered 185x and your system will be booting a
Plug and Play compliant operating system.
The 185x errors are caused by the system being
unable to configure all adapters and devices in the
system because of conflicting resource assignments.
Selecting “Yes“ allows the configuration of Plug and
Play devices not required for booting to be performed
by the operating system, which can better manage
the resource assignments of Plug and Play adapters
and devices. The default is “No“.
Processor Control
It will indicate the Intel processor ID number and
microcode revision date. This information is not
configurabled.
Power Management
Wake on LAN
Select “Enabled” to allow your system to power-on in
response to LAN wake up requests if the network
adapter in your system supports this feature. The
default is set to “Disabled“
Startup Sequence
When the Wake on LAN is set to “Enabled“, Startup
Sequence will become configurable. Select the start-
up sequence you want to use for this type of
power-on event. If you select “Automatic“, make
sure that the Automatic Power-On Start-up Sequence
is set to “Enabled“; otherwise the system will use the
“Primary“ startup sequence.
