Primary IDE Master/Slave

While entering Setup, the BIOS automatically detects the presence of IDE devices.

There is a separate sub-menu for each IDE device. Select a device item then

press <Enter> to display the IDE device information.

The BIOS automatically detects the values opposite the dimmed items

(Capacity, Cylinder, Head, Sector and Transfer Mode). These values are not

user-configurable. These items show N/A if no IDE device is installed in the

system.

PIO Mode [Auto]

Sets the PIO mode for the IDE device.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Mode 0] [Mode 1] [Mode 2] [Mode 3] [Mode 4]

UDMA Mode [Auto]

Disables or sets the UDMA mode. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Auto]

Primary IDE Master/Slave [Auto]

Select [Auto] to automatically detect an IDE hard disk drive. If automatic detection

is successful, the BIOS automatically fills in the correct values for the remaining

fields on this sub-menu. If the hard disk was already formatted on a previous

system, the setup BIOS may detect incorrect parameters. Select [Manual] to

manually enter the IDE hard disk drive parameters. If no drive is installed select

[None]. Configuration options: [None] [Auto] [Manual]
