Quick Boot
Enabling this setting will cause the BIOS power-on self test routine to skip some
of its tests during bootup for faster system boot.
Quiet Boot
This BIOS feature determines if the BIOS should hide the normal POST mes-
sages with the motherboard or system manufacturer's full-screen logo.
When it is enabled, the BIOS will display the full-screen logo during the boot-up
sequence, hiding normal POST messages.
When it is disabled, the BIOS will display the normal POST messages, instead of
the full-screen logo.
Please note that enabling this BIOS feature often adds 2-3 seconds of delay to
the booting sequence. This delay ensures that the logo is displayed for a
sufficient amount of time. Therefore, it is recommended that you disable this
BIOS feature for a faster boot-up time.
AddOn ROM Display Mode
This item is used to determine the display mode when an optional ROM is

Select [Enabled] if you need to use a PS/2-interfaced mouse in the operating
system.
Wait For ‘F1’ If Error

error, it asks you to press F1. If disabled, the system continues to boot without
waiting for you to press any keys.
Hit ‘DEL’ Message Display
Set this option to [Disabled] to prevent the message as follows:
Hit Del if you want to run setup
It will prevent the message from appearing on the first BIOS screen when the
computer boots. Set it to [Enabled] when you want to run the BIOS Setup Utility.
Interrupt 19 Capture
Interrupt 19 is the software interrupt that handles the boot disk function. When
enabled, this BIOS feature allows the ROM BIOS of these host adaptors to
"capture" Interrupt 19 during the boot process so that drives attached to these
adaptors can function as bootable disks. In addition, it allows you to gain ac-
