BIOS Setup
Virus Warning
This field protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk drive.
When this field is enabled, the Award BIOS will monitor the boot sector and par-
tition table of the hard disk drive. If an attempt is made to write to the boot sec-
tor or partition table of the hard disk drive, the BIOS will halt the system and an
error message will appear.
After seeing the error message, if necessary, you will be able to run an anti-virus
program to locate and remove the problem before any damage is done. Many
disk diagnostic programs which attempt to access the boot sector table will cause
the warning message to appear. If you are running such a program, we recom-
mend that you first disable this field.
CPU L1 and L2 Cache
This field is used to speed up the memory access. Enable the external cache for
better performance.
Hyper-Threading Technology
Enable this field for Windows XP and Linux which are optimized for Hyper-Thread-
ing technology. Select disabled for other OSes not optimized for Hyper-Threading
technology. When disabled, only one thread per enabled core is enabled
