Introduction

This chapter discusses Award’s Setup program built into the product. The Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration.

Starting Setup

The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. By pressing <DEL> immediately after switching the system on, or
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. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Delete> keys.

Using Setup

In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter> to select, use the F5 and F6 keys to change entries, press <F1> for help and press <Esc> to quit. The following table provides more detail about how to navigate in the Setup program using the keyboard.

5. BIOS Setup

In Case of Problems

If, after making and saving system changes with Setup, you discover that your computer no longer is able to boot, we should repair it
The best advice is to only alter settings which you thoroughly understand. To this end, we strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the CPU defaults and the chipset defaults. These defaults have been carefully chosen by both Insyde and your systems manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change to them has the potential for causing you to be repaired.

A Final Note About Setup

The information in this chapter is subject to change without notice.

Gate A20 Option
With the field, there is the option to choose, aside from the hard disks connected, “Bootable add-in Cards” which refers to other external devices.
If this option is enabled, an alarm message will be displayed when trying to write on the boot sector or on the partition table on the disk, which is typical of the virus. Cache memory is additional memory that is faster than conventional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type on up contain internal cache memory, and most, but not all, modern PCs have additional (external) cache memory. When the CPU requests data, the system transfers the requested data from the main DRAM into cache memory, for even faster access by the CPU. These allow you to enable (speed up memory access) or disable the cache function. When enabled, this field speeds up the Power On Self Test (POST) after the system is turned on. If it is set to Enabled, BIOS will skip some items. These fields determine the drive that the system searches first for an operating system. The options available include Floppy, LS120, Hard Disk, CDROM, ZIP100, USB-Floppy, USB-ZIP, USB-CDROM, LAN and Disable. These fields allow the system to search for an OS from other devices other than the ones selected in the First/Second/Third Boot Device.
This field allows you to select how Gate A20 is worked. Gate A20 is a device used to address memory above 1 MB.

This field allows you to select the type of power saving management modes. There are four selections for Power Management. Min. Power Saving: Minimum power management Max. Power Saving: Maximum power management. User Define: Each of the ranges is from 1 min. to 1hr. Except for HDD Power Down which ranges from 1 min. to 15 min. When enabled, and after the set time of system inactivity, the hard disk drive will be powered down while all other devices remain active.
This field defines the Video Off features. There are three options. V/H SYNC + Blank: Default setting, blank the screen and turn off vertical and horizontal scanning. DPMS: Allows BIOS to control the video display. Blank Screen: Writes blanks to the video buffer. This field defines the power-off mode when using an ATX power supply. The Instant Off mode allows powering off immediately upon pressing the power button. In the By Hardware mode, the system powers off when the power button is pressed for more than four seconds or enters the suspend mode when pressed for less than 4 seconds. HPET, or High Precision Event Timer (formerly known as Multimedia Timer) is a hardware timer that is supported under Linux and Windows Vista. It can produce periodic interrupts at a much higher resolution than the RTC and is often used to synchronize multimedia streams, providing smooth playback and reducing the need to use other timestamp calculations such as an x86 CPU’s RDTSC instruction.
