19 Chapter 3 Introducing BIOS The BIOS is a program stored in a flash memory on the mo therboard. The program serves as a bridge between motherboard and operating system.
20 3-3 The Main Menu Once you enter Award ® BIOS CMOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu (Figure 3-1) will appear on the screen. There are fourteen setup functions and two exit choices allowing you to select under the Main Menu. Use arrow keys to select among the items and press <Enter> to accept or enter the sub-menu.
21 Load Optimized Defaults Use this menu to load the BIOS default valu es that are factory-se t for optimal system performances operation. Load Standard Defaults Use this menu to load the BIOS default values for the minima l/stable performance system operation.
22 Time The time format is <hour><minute><second>. Primary Master/Primary Slave Secondary Master/Secondary Slave Press PgUp/<+> or PgDn/< – > to select Manual, None, Auto type. Note that the specifications of your drive must match with the drive table.
23 Anti-Virus Protection Allows you to choose the VIRUS Wa rning feature for IDE Hard Di sk boot sector protection. If this function is enabled and someone attempt to write data into this area, BIOS will prompt a warning message on sc reen and give beep sound.
24 Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec) Sets the number of times in a second to rep eat a keystroke when you hold the key down. The settings are: 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, and 30. Typematic Delay (Msec) Sets the delay time after the key is held befo re it begins to repeat the keystroke.
25 CAS Latency When synchronous DRAM is inst alled, the number of clock cy cles of CAS latency depends on the DRAM timing. The settings are: 2T and 2.5T. System BIOS Cacheable Selecting Enabled allows caching of the sy stem BIOS ROM at F0000h-FFFFFh, resulting in better system performance.
