Boot Sequence

Set the boot priority of the system. For example in the figure
shown above, the First Boot Device is set to Floppy, the Sec-
ond Boot Device to Hard Disk and the third Boot Device to
LS120 drive.

The BIOS searches the Floppy Drive, Hard Disk and the
LS120 drive in that order, looking for an Operating System to
load.

Bootup NumLock Status

This option, when enabled, automatically turns on your Num-
Lock key when the system is booted. This is a matter of per-
sonal taste.The choices are:

On/Off

Gate A20 Option

This feature determines how Gate A20 is used to address
memory above 1MB. When this option is set to Fast, the
motherboard chipset controls the operation of Gate A20. But
when set to Normal, a pin in the keyboard controller controls
Gate A20. Setting Gate A20 to Fast improves memory
access speed and thus, overall system speed, especially with
OS/2 and Windows.
