[. . . ] Options: Enabled, Disabled. Page 4-11 BIOS 4-4 Integrated Peripherals Figure 5: Integrated Peripherals Init Display First If two video cards are used (1 AGP and 1 PCI) this specifies which one will be the primary display adapter. High Point IDE RAID (Optional) Enables the onboard HighPoint RAID feature. Options: Enabled, Disabled, Auto. Page 4-12 BIOS VIA OnChip IDE Device Scroll to VIA Onchip IDE Device and press <Enter>. The following screen appears: IDE DMA transfer access Automatic data transfer between system memory and IDE device with minimum CPU intervention. OnChip IDE Channel0/1 The integrated peripheral controller contains an IDE interface with support for two IDE channels. Note: If you do not use the onboard IDE connector, then you will need to set the Onboard Primary PCI IDE and Onboard Secondary PCI IDE to Disabled. IDE Prefetch Mode Selecting Enabled reduces latency between each drive read/write cycle, but may cause instability in IDE subsystems that cannot support such fast performance. If you are getting disk drive errors, try setting this value to Disabled. This field does not appear when the Internal PCI/IDE field, above, is Disabled. Primary/Secondary Master/Slave PIO The four IDE PIO (Programmed Input/Output) fields let you set a PIO mode (0-4) for each of the four IDE devices that the onboard IDE interface supports. In Auto mode, the system automatically determines the best mode for each device. Options: Auto, Mode 0 ~ 4. Page 4-13 BIOS Primary/Secondary Master/Slave UDMA This allows you to select the mode of operation for the IDE drive. Ultra DMA-33/66/ 100/133 implementation is possible only if your IDE hard drive supports it and the operating environment includes a DMA driver. If your hard drive and your system software both support Ultra DMA-33/66/100/133, select Auto to enable UDMA mode by BIOS or you can manually disable it. IDE HDD Block Mode Block mode is also called block transfer, multiple commands, or multiple sector read/ write. If your IDE hard drive supports block mode (most new drives do), select Enabled for automatic detection of the optimal number of block read/writes per sector the drive can support. Options: Enabled, Disabled. VIA Onchip PCI Device Scroll to VIA Onchip PCI Device and press <Enter>. The following screen appears: VIA-3058 AC97 Audio This item allows you to disable the chipset on-chip support for AC97 Audio. Onboard Lan Boot ROM (Optional) Enable/disable the onboard LAN Boot ROM. Options: Enabled, Disabled. Super IO Chip Setup Scroll to Super IO Chip Setup and press <Enter>. The following screen appears: Onboard FDC Controller Select Enabled if your system has a floppy disk controller (FDC) installed on the system board and you wish to use it. If you install add-in FDC or the system has no floppy drive, select Disabled in this field. [. . . ] Reserved Test F000h segment shadow to see whether it is R/W-able or not. Reserved Auto detect flash type to load appropriate flash R/W codes into the run time area in F000 for ESCD & DMI support. Reserved Use walking 1s algorithm to check out interface in CMOS circuitry.
