Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static electricity.
To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the
following precautions:
Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static
packaging until you are ready to install them.
Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion
of the system unit chassis for a few seconds. This helps to discharge any
static electricity on your body.
Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component
stores, when handling boards and components. Fasten the ALLIGATOR
clip of the strap to the end of the shielded wire lead from a grounded
object. Please wear and connect the strap before handle the HS-6252 to
ensure harmlessly discharge any static electricity through the strap.
Please use an anti-static pad when putting down any components or
parts or tools outside the computer. You may also use an anti-static bag
instead of the pad. Please inquire from your local supplier for additional
assistance in finding the necessary anti-static gadgets.
NOTE:
DO NOT TOUCH THE BOARD OR ANY OTHER SENSITIVE
COMPONENTS WITHOUT ALL NECESSARY ANTI-STATIC
PROTECTION.

BIOS setup program is designed to provide the maximum flexibility in
configuring the system by offering various options that could be
selected for end-user requirements. This chapter is written to assist
you in the proper usage of these features.
4.1 Starting Setup
The AMI BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the
computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained in the
CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and
configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system
on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the
operating system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one
of two ways:
1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or
2. By pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears
briefly at the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self
Test).
Press DEL to enter SETUP.
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to
enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or
pressing the "RESET" button on the system case. You may also restart
by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Delete> keys. If you do
not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an
error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to...

4.8 PCI / Plug and Play Setup
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or
Personal Computer Interconnect, is a system that allows I/O devices to
operate at speeds nearing the speed the CPU itself uses when
communicating with its own special components. This section covers
some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only
experienced users should make any changes to the default settings.

any sequence.
Clear NVRAM on Every Boot:
When this option is set to Yes, the system can auto clear NVRAM.
PCI Latency Timer (PCI Clocks):
This option specifies the latency timings (in PCI clocks) of PCI
devices installed in the PCI expansion slots. The available

4.9 Peripheral Setup
The IDE hard drive controllers can support up to two separate hard
drives. These drives have a master/slave relationship that is
determined by the cabling configuration used to attach them to the
controller. Your system supports two IDE controllers--a primary and a
secondary--so you can install up to four separate hard disks.
PIO means Programmed Input/Output. Rather than having the BIOS
issue a series of commands to affect the transfer to or from the disk
drive, PIO allows the BIOS to tell the controller what it wants and then
let the controller and the CPU perform the complete task by them. This
is much simpler and more efficient (also faster).

to the Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) specification. EPP uses
the existing parallel port signals to provide asymmetric
bi-directional data transfer driven by the host device.
ECP: The parallel port can be used with devices that adhere
to the Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) specification. ECP
uses the DMA protocol to achieve data transfer rates up to
2.5 Megabits per second. ECP provides symmetric
bi-directional communication.
This option specifies the IRQ used by the parallel port. The
available settings are Auto, (IRQ)5, and (IRQ)7.
