Init Display First

With systems that have multiple video cards, this option determines whether the primary display

uses a PCI slot or a PCI-E slot. Options: PCI Slot, Onboard, PCIEx.

IDE Function Setup

If you highlight the “IDE Function Setup” label and then press the enter key, it will take you to a
submenu with the following options.

OnChip IDE Channel 0/1

The mainboard chipset contains a PCI IDE interface with support for two IDE channels. Select

“Enabled” to activate the first and/or second IDE interface. Select “Disabled” to deactivate an
interface if you are going to install a primary and/or secondary add-in IDE interface.
Options: Enabled (Default), Disabled

Primary/Secondary Master/Slave PIO

The IDE PIO (Programmed Input / Output) fields let you set a PIO mode (0-4) for each of the

IDE devices that the onboard IDE interface supports. Modes 0 to 4 will increase performance

incrementally. In Auto mode, the system automatically determines the best mode for each

device. Options: Auto (Default), Mode0, Mode1, Mode2, Mode3, Mode4

Primary/Secondary Master/Slave UDMA

Ultra DMA 100 functionality can be implemented if it is supported by the IDE hard drives in your

system. As well, your operating environment requires a DMA driver (Windows 95 OSR2 or a

third party IDE bus master driver). If your hard drive and your system software both support
Ultra DMA 100, select “Auto” to enable BIOS support. Options: Auto (Default), Disabled

IDE Prefetch Mode

The “onboard” IDE drive interface supports IDE prefetching for faster drive access. If you install

a primary and/or secondary add-in IDE interface, set this option to “Disabled” if the interface

does not support prefetching. Options: Enabled (Default), Disabled

IDE HDD Block Mode

Block mode is otherwise known as block transfer, multiple commands, or multiple sectors
read/write. Select the “Enabled” option if your IDE hard drive supports block mode (most new

drives do). The system will automatically determine the optimal number of blocks to read and

write per sector. Options: Enabled (Default), Disabled

RAID Config

If you highlight the “RAID Config” label and then press the enter key, it will take you to a

submenu with the following options.

RAID Enable

This allows you to enable or disable the RAID function. Options: Enabled, Disabled (Default)
