This field allows your hard disk controller to use the fast block mode to transfer data to and from your hard disk
drive.

IDE DMA Transfer Access
Allows IDE transfer to be done in DMA mode

OnChip Primary/Secondary PCI IDE
The integrated peripheral controller contains an IDE interface with support for two IDE channels. Select Enabled to
activate each channel separately.

IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave PIO
These fields allow your system hard disk controller to work faster. Rather than have the BIOS issue a series of
commands that transfer to or from the disk drive, PIO (Programmed Input/Output) allows the BIOS to communicate
with the controller and CPU directly.

The system supports five modes, numbered from 0 (default) to 4, which primarily differ in timing. When Auto is
selected, the BIOS will select the best available mode.

IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave UDMA
These fields allow your system to improve disk I/O throughput to 33Mb/sec with the Ultra DMA/33 feature. The
options are Auto and Disabled.

USB Controller
The options for this field are Enabled and Disabled. By default, this field is set to Enabled.

USB 2.0 Controller
The options for this field are Enabled and Disabled. By default, this field is set to Enabled. In order to use USB 2.0,
necessary OS drivers must be installed first.

USB Keyboard Support
The options for this field are Enabled and Disabled. By default, this field is set to Enabled.

AC97 Audio
The default setting of the AC97 Audio is Auto.

Onboard FDC Controller
Select Enabled if your system has a floppy disk controller (FDC) installed on the motherboard and you wish to use
it. If you install an add-in FDC or the system has no floppy drive, select Disabled in this field. This option allows you
to select the onboard FDD port.

UART Mode Select
This field determines the UART 2 mode in your computer. The default value is Normal. Other options include IrDA
and ASKIR.
