Typematic Delay (Msec)
When the typematic rate is enabled, this item allows you to set the time
interval for displaying the first and second characters. By default, this
item is set to 250msec.
Security Option
This field allows you to limit access to the System and Setup. The default
value is Setup. When you select System, the system prompts for the User
Password every time you boot up. When you select Setup, the system
always boots up and prompts for the Supervisor Password only when the
Setup utility is called up.
MPS Version Control for OS
This option specifies the version of the Multiprocessor Specification
(MPS) that the board will use. MPS version 1.4 added extended
configuration tables to improve support for multiple PCI bus
configurations and improve future expandability. It is also required for a
secondary PCI bus to work without the need for a bridge. Newer versions
of server operating systems will generally support MPS 1.4.
OS Select for DRAM > 64MB
This option allows the system to access greater than 64MB of DRAM
memory when used with OS/2 that depends on certain BIOS calls to
access memory. The default setting is Non-OS/2.

RAM. Video Shadow will increase the video speed.

copied to RAM.
