[. . . ] PCIe 1 Slot  Sets the graphics card on the PCIEX16 slot as the first display. (Default) PCIe 2 Slot  Sets the graphics card on the PCIEX4 slot as the first display. PCI  Sets the graphics card on the PCI slot as the first display. Allows you to determine the operating mode for the xHCI controller in OS. Smart Auto This mode is available only when the BIOS supports the xHCI controller in the pre-boot  environment. This mode is similar to Auto, but it adds the capability to route the ports to xHCI or EHCI according to setting used in previous boots (for non-G3 boot) in the pre-boot environment. xHCI controller enabling and rerouting should follow the steps in Auto, when previous boot routs ports to EHCI. Note: This is the recommended mode when BIOS has xHCI preboot support. (Default) Auto   BIOS routes the sharable ports to EHCI controller. Then it uses ACPI protocols to provide an option to enable the xHCI controller and reroute the sharable ports. Note: This is the recommended mode when BIOS does NOT have xHCI pre-boot support. (Default: Disabled) && Hot plug && External SATA `` Super IO Configuration This section provides information on the super I/O chip and allows you to configure the serial port. (Default: Enabled) && Serial Port A `` Intel(R) Smart Connect Technology && ISCT Support BIOS Setup Enables or disables Intel® Smart Connect Technology. (Default: Disabled) - 52 - 2-7 Power Management && Power Loading Enables or disables dummy load. When the power supply is at low load, a self-protection will activate causing it to shutdown or fail. Auto lets the BIOS automatically configur this setting. (Default:Auto) Determines whether to power on the system at a desired time. (Default: Disabled) If enabled, set the date and time as following: Wake up day: Turn on the system at a specific time on each day or on a specific day in a month.  Wake up hour/minute/second: Set the time at which the system will be powered on automatically.  Note: When using this function, avoid inadequate shutdown from the operating system or removal of the AC power, or the settings may not be effective. Determines whether to let the system consume least power in S5 (shutdown) state. (Default: Disabled) Note: When this item is set to Enabled, the following functions will become unavailable: PME event wake up, power on by mouse, power on by keyboard, and wake on LAN. Configures the way to turn off the computer in MS-DOS mode using the power button. [. . . ] Instead, the device should be taken to the waste collection centers for activation of the treatment, collection, recycling and disposal procedure. The separate collection and recycling of your waste equipment at the time of disposal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure that it is recycled in a manner that protects human health and the environment. For more information about where you can drop off your waste equipment for recycling, please contact your local government office, your household waste disposal service or where you purchased the product for details of environmentally safe recycling. ŠŠ When your electrical or electronic equipment is no longer useful to you, "take it back" to your local or regional waste collection administration for recycling. [. . . ]
