[. . . ] By pressing <Enter> key, you can enter its submenu where the hard disks detected can be selected for the booting sequence to boot up system. This item functions only when there is the option of [Hard Disk] in any one of the First/Second/Third Boot Device items. Bootable Add-in Device: This item selects the priority of bootable add-in devices. Quick Power On Self Test: When set to [Enabled], this item speeds up the Power On Self Test (POST) after powering on the system. First Boot Device / Second Boot Device / Third Boot Device / Boot Other Device: Select the drive to boot first, second and third in the [First Boot Device], [Second Boot Device], and [Third Boot Device] items respectively. The BIOS will boot the operating system according to the sequence of the drive selected. Set [Boot Other Device] to [Enabled] if you wish to boot from another device other than these three items. Swap Floppy Drive: When set to [Enabled], and the system is booting from the floppy drive, the system will boot from drive B instead of the regular drive A. There must be two floppy drives connected in the system to use this function. KV-85 BIOS Setup 3-7 Boot Up Floppy Seek: When set to [Enabled], the BIOS will check whether the floppy disk drive is installed or not. Boot Up NumLock Status: This item determines the default state of the numeric keypad at system booting up. Security Option: This item determines when the system will prompt for password - every time the system boots or only when enters the BIOS setup. If you forget the password, you will have to open the computer case and clear all information in the CMOS before you can start up the system. Small Logo(EPA) Show: Enables or disables the display of the EPA logo during boot. User's Manual 3-8 Chapter 3 3-3.

The aperture is a portion of the PCI memory address range dedicated for graphics memory address space. If your AGP adapter can support this function, then you can choose Enabled. When you set it to Enabled, two-wait states are used by the system, allowing for greater stability. When you set it to Enabled, two-wait states are used by the system, allowing for greater stability.

The system may be unstable or unable to boot up if your DRAM module does not support the clock you set. DRAM Command Rate: When the host (northbridge) locates the desired memory address, it then processes the wait state of commands.
