BOOT OPTIONS SUBMENU
Boot Sequence
When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the order of drives the system uses to find an operating
system to boot from. The following options are available:
C: First, Then A: The system checks drive C first, followed by drive A.
A: First, Then C: The system checks drive A first, followed by drive C.
(The above selection allows you to boot from a diskette when necessary.)
C: Only The system checks drive C and no other drives.
A: Only The system checks drive A and no other drives.
The default is A: First, Then C:
System Cache
When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to enable or disable both the primary and secondary cache
memory. The options are Enabled or Disabled. The default is Enabled.
Boot Speed
When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the system’s boot speed. The options are Deturbo and
Turbo. The default is Turbo. If Turbo is selected, boot-up occurs at full speed. If Deturbo is selected, the board operates
at a slower speed (similar to a 25 MHz AT).
Num Lock
When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the beginning state of the Num Lock feature on your
keyboard. The options are On and Off. The default is Off.
Setup Prompt
When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to turn on the “Press <F1> Key if you want to run Setup”
prompt during the power-up sequence. The options are Enabled and Disabled. The default is Enabled.
Hard Disk Pre-Delay
When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the hard disk drive pre-delay. The options are
Disabled, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 seconds. The default is 3 seconds. When enabled, this option causes the BIOS to wait the
specified time before it first accesses the hard drive. If your system contains a hard drive, and you don’t see the drive
type displayed during boot-up, the hard drive may need more time before it is able to communicate with the controller.
Setting a pre-delay will provide additional time for the hard drive to initialize.
Typematic Rate Programming
When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set the typematic rates. The options are Default and
Override. The default is Default. Choosing Override enables Typematic Rate Delay and Typematic Rate.
Typematic Rate Delay
When selected, this brings up a dialog box that allows you to set how long it takes for the key-repeat function to start
when you hold down a key on the keyboard. The options are 250, 500, 750, and 1000 millisecond delays. The default is
250. If Typematic Rate Programming is set to Default, this option will not be visible.
